The boxes and labels that society has enforced upon us are limiting, confining and detrimental to our evolution. We need all of our colours present and healthy to birth new radical and inspired ways.
We appreciate that the journey to PRIDE in a world that condemns LGBTQ2IA+ individuals can be long and arduous. We understand the importance of creating safe, brave and authentic spaces to support one another, as chosen family does.
PRIDE is sitting in the beauty of your being and celebrating your queerness.
It is knowing that gender, sexuality and identity are not fixed but fluid, and it is embracing the daily discovery into the truth of your heart, body and soul.
What would it take to rewire our fear of “otherness” and weave it into a connected web of allyship?
How can we celebrate all communities, with our rich and diverse lived experiences, to learn from one another and evolve?
