Are you ready to step into the courage and confidence required to live true to yourself as an LGBTQ+ person?
Or are you ready to live even more loudly and proudly?
Or, are you the parent of an LGBTQ+ person who is looking for guidance on how to support them?
Perhaps you're an ally or advocate who's seeking ways to bolster the queer community and ensure their freedoms?
If you answered yes to any of the above, then this book is for you.
Joyously Free! Stories & Tips for Living Your Truth as LGBTQ+ People, Parents and Allies by Elizabeth Ann Atkins and Joanie Lindenmeyer celebrates personal fulfillment, joy, and the exhilarating adventure of blazing a passionate trail into self-discovery.
The authors and dozens of contributors from across America share personal stories and tips in chapters that explore being lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer, as well as being the parents and allies/advocates of LGBTQ+ people. These stories appear in chapters that explore same-sex marriage, self-love and affirmation, tips for finding the courage to come out and create a joyous life, and guidance for finding peace and love with spirituality and religion-a topic that has deeply wounded many LGBTQ+ people.
Joyously Free! touches on the emotional turmoil and lack of fulfillment experienced by those restricted by fear, secrecy, and societal judgment.
The authors hope that this book can serve as a beacon of hope and empowerment that helps people everywhere live Joyously Free!
Excerpt:
Joyously Free!
These two powerhouse words are splashed in big, bold letters amidst exploding rainbow clouds on the cover of this book for a reason:
Liberating your mind, body, and spirit as an LGBTQ+ person to live and love as you truly desire opens the gateway to experience pure joy on every level.
You can also do this as a parent, ally, and/or advocate while helping others achieve peace and sovereignty over their lives.
Yes, it can be scary, difficult, and seemingly impossible.
And if it were easy, you and they would already be Joyously Free!
As with any goal, it helps to have a guide, and here we are. We want you to have fun... be creative... and never stop believing until you're living your dream in vibrant, 3-D reality.
So, when you open this book, you're looking into a portal of infinite possibilities to unleash your wildest imagination and script your LGBTQ+ dream life and love, starring the most powerful, peaceful YOU!
