Today, my guest on The Expressive Mom Show is Sam Leeson. Sam is a parent of two grown sons who discovered her passion for supporting aspiring parents after her eldest child’s birth.

For over 25 years, she has dedicated herself to helping individuals and couples start or expand their families through education, coaching, and physical support. As the founder of babyREADY, she has guided thousands on their parenting journeys.

With experience attending births and educating Queer clients, Sam has shared her insights on CBC Radio and in major publications. Her engaging approach and informative podcast instill confidence in her clients, helping 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals find answers to questions they didn’t know they had.

Queer Parenting - Redefining Family with Love and Inclusivity

Queer parenting celebrates diverse families and embraces love, resilience, and inclusivity. Queer parents navigate unique challenges, often educating themselves and others about acceptance, identity, and equality.

They build support networks, foster open communication, and model authenticity to raise compassionate, self-aware children. Many queer parents also advocate for broader social change, challenging stereotypes about traditional family roles and working to create safe spaces for LGBTQ+ families within schools, communities, and society.

Ultimately, queer parenting centers on the same values as any parenting journey: nurturing children in a safe, supportive, and loving environment where they can flourish as themselves.

Now you have it, and that is a wrap. Next week, I will be chatting with a guest who is a neo-Shamanic energy practitioner and well-being expert who helps purpose-driven women release societal pressures to "do it all" and reconnect with their Divine Feminine.
