This is about the experience queer people have when those who raised them, prayed for them, or told them they loved them also make them feel unsafe. We are taught that family is vital, even if it means we have to shrink to fit in. If you've ever had to make emotional exits, rethink what home means, or remember that love should never need you to be quiet, this episode is for you.#QueerAndUnfiltered #LGBTQIANigeria #AfroQueerVoices #ChosenFamily #QueerBoundaries #FamilyIsNotAlwaysSafe #UnapologeticallyQueer #ProtectYourPeace #BlackQueerHealing #ComingHomeToYourself #EmotionalSafety #SoftnessIsPower #SurvivalAndResistance #QueerLiberation #QueerHealing

Being truly present, whether at work or in a creative setting, often means doing emotional work, choosing to be quiet, and always balancing the need to be safe and the need to be seen. This conversation is about survival, yes, but also about reclaiming joy, setting boundaries, and showing up with intention, even when it’s complicated. This episode is for all queer people who have had to hide their light at work, and for those who are learning how to shine anyway.

This episode explores what it's like to be a queer African in a world that always asks you to choose between visibility and safety. Being out comes with risks, both emotional and cultural, and sometimes physical. But hiding also comes with a cost. Queerness is still valid, no matter how you live. This is a reminder that pride can be loud and soft at the same time. This episode is for anyone who wants to hold on to their identity with purpose, protection, and power.#QueerAndUnfiltered #VisibilityMatters #LGBTQIANigeria #AfroQueerVoices #OutOnMyTerms #QueerVisibility #SoftnessIsPower #LivingOutLoud #BlackQueerJoy #QueerHealing #SafeQueerSpaces #SurvivalAndResistance #ComingHomeToYourself #UnapologeticallyQueer #PublicVsPrivate
