The Queer Family Podcast, S19 E1: Gays With Kids Founder Brian Rosenberg

Another feed swap this week - with The Queer Family Podcast with Jaimie Kelton! . . . Jaimie sits down with Brian Rosenberg, longtime advocate, dad of three, and founder of Gays With Kids and GWK Academy. From navigating HIV and homophobia in the '80s to building a beautiful family through adoption and surrogacy, Brian shares his powerful story with honesty, humor, and heart. He opens up about the challenges of coming out as HIV-positive before coming out as gay, what it was like to raise kids during a time when queer family building had very little visibility, and why he’s now dedicated to making the process easier for all LGBTQIA+ folks looking to become parents. You’ll laugh, cry, and walk away feeling a little more seen.  “I’m one of the first out gay men living with HIV to have biological kids through surrogacy. Now there are hundreds of us—and counting.” – Brian Rosenberg Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
