While we gear up for Season 20 of The Queer Family Podcast, we're sharing this powerful conversation Jaimie had as a guest on the No Guilt Mom podcast! We talked all things queer family building, parenting with purpose, standing up (loudly) for what’s right—and yes, even voiceover work and musical theater. Enjoy this bonus episode while you wait for what's coming next!

Upstanders vs. Bystanders: Embracing Allyship for LGBTQ Families Everywhere with Jaimie Kelton

What do you get when you mix voiceover talent, musical theatre chops, and two kids made with a lot of love (and even more paperwork)? You get Jaimie Kelton—host of the LGBTQ family podcast The Queer Family Podcast and all-around awesome human.

In this episode, we dive into allyship that actually shows up, why inclusivity isn’t optional (especially in parenting), and how representation helps us all raise better humans. Oh—and did we mention the cupcakes at school board protests? Yeah, that happened. Also, Jaimie literally brought her sperm donor out of retirement. No big deal.

If you've ever wondered how to be a better ally—or just want to hear real talk with a lot of heart and a few giggles—this one’s for you. 💖🏳️‍🌈
