Family, My semi-break from the pod has officially ended. I'm feeling ready to take on another year of the Queer News podcast. As I reflect on the last three seasons, every year I can find story after story which affirms just how important this work really is in the world. I suspect this year will be no different. So I'm here and very committed to telling stories of the most underestimated. We deserve this and so much more. I hope you enjoy this week's episode. Talk soon, Ohhh & Quick Question Are you going to Creating Change? If so, reply to this email so we can connect in Vegas! I'd love to make IRL connections in 2025. Listen to this week's episode

Breathe in, hold, exhale and think of something you’re grateful for. Do it over and over till you feel more balanced. The world is at war, trans rights are under perpetual attack, and so many things just feel upside down. But in the midst of all that there is...
Family, Do you all listen to the end of each episode for Anna’s Got a Word? Reply and let me know. It’s been a staple since season one and before then I had a whole podcast titled “Anna’s Got a Word”. I love ending each episode on a positive note because the news can be so heavy.
