Welcome to the Queers and Co. Podcast with facilitator, coach and speaker, Gem Kennedy (they/them). Each episode of the latest series poses the compelling question, “What happens when…” and delves into topics such as anxiety, AuDHD, gender identity, and beyond. Gem takes centre stage this series, sharing personal insights and reflections after a particularly difficult time in which it felt more important than ever for them to focus on living in alignment with the truest expression of themselves. If you’ve not listened before, be sure to check out the previous two series in which Gem has thought-provoking conversations with queer folks and allies who are at the forefront of change-making in areas such as fat activism, sex positivity, drag/cabaret, LGBTQ+ activism and children’s rights.
