Hosted by Nikki Hiltz, the "It’s About Being Seen" podcast is special collection of conversations with members of the Pride 5k community who used the race to come out in 2020. We hope y'all enjoy! "The things you hear about coming out may make you feel pressured to take steps that don’t feel right for you, or that you don’t feel prepared for. Your experience is truly unique to you. You get to decide what works best...You are valid and deserve support no matter who you do or do not share your identities with." -Trevor Project Coming Out: A Handbook for LGBTQ Young People
