Customer Reviews
Lindsey is wonderful!
I just had Lindsey on my pod cast, and she was delightful! We even got to meet her wife Joan! I learned so much from our interview, and was impressed with her ability to express her journey. She was totally open with us on the podcast, sharing personal experiences that bring to light the struggles and triumphs of the queer community. Lindsey is a loving, gentle, and wise activist for the LGBTQ+ community. I look forward to more episodes of this podcast. She is a gem.
