Description
This is the beginning of a new season! Welcome!
More Human. More Kind. is a podcast offering compassionate guidance for LGBTQ+ parenting, allyship, and inclusive living in a complicated world. Hosted by Heather Hester—coach, speaker, author, and LGBTQ+ advocate—this show creates space for honest conversations about identity, love, boundaries, and what it truly means to show up with courage and care.
Through a lens of parenting, inclusion, and lived experience, Heather explores topics such as:
- Parenting LGBTQ+ kids with clarity, confidence, and compassion
- Growing into a courageous, informed ally
- Kindness vs. niceness—and why boundaries are an act of love
- Healing strained relationships and navigating change
- Identity, authenticity, and becoming more human in real time
Rooted in empathy and practical insight, each episode offers reflection, reassurance, and guidance for parents, allies, and anyone committed to building a more inclusive, connected world.
If you’re parenting an LGBTQ+ child, learning how to be a better ally, or simply seeking thoughtful conversations grounded in humanity and inclusion, More Human. More Kind. will help you feel seen, supported, and less alone.

This is a place to feel messy while you're figuring it out.
At the heart of my work is a deep commitment to compassion, authenticity, and transformative allyship, especially for those navigating the complexities of parenting LGBTQ kids. Through this podcast, speaking, my writing, and the spaces I create, I help people unlearn bias, embrace their full humanity, and grow their capacity for courageous connection.
For parents, allies, and those pioneering a way to lead with love and kindness, I’m here with true, messy, and heartwarming stories, real tools, and grounding support to help you move from fear to fierce, informed action.
Whether you’re listening in, working with me directly, or quietly taking it all in, I see you. And I’m so glad you’re on this journey with me.
