Building Bridges: A Queer Couple Owning Chick-fil-As in Texas
I'm going to try my best not to gush, but I really can't help it. Our guests on More to Say today are two of the most wonderful, kind, generous, amazing people I've ever encountered. For years now, they have been showing up in quiet, important ways for our community and our team. You'll hear it in this conversation and will be just as in love with them as we are by the end of this episode.
Tiff and Jess are executive producers of the show who own and operate two Chick-fil-A restaurants in the Dallas metroplex in Texas. They got married this past year, but have been together for 12 years. They are here with Beth to share their experiences as queer women working within a company largely branded with an anti-LGBTQ+ reputation. They are living embodiments of nuance in ways most of us can only dream of. You are going to love this conversation and love Tiff and Jess. We are so honored they were willing to share their stories with us and this community. -Alise -
