Episode 13: Advocacy & Breaking Walls

In this episode, we’re joined by our friend Tracy, a former school board director and a local activist, to explore what allyship actually looks like in the real world. We talk about how stories shape empathy, why representation matters, and how seeing yourself reflected can be life-changing. Tracy shares her experiences advocating for LGBTQ+ students during some of the most contentious moments in our school district and community, and we discuss the difference between micro-allyship in our daily lives and the larger, harder work of advocacy that creates real change. Ultimately, we ask: If a story moves you, is it enough to simply feel something and enjoy it, or do you have a responsibility to act?
