🌈 Transparent Podcast - A Program in Partnership with Youth Infusion, Inc.

The Transparent Podcast is a bold, heartfelt, and empowering platform created to uplift, celebrate, and support the LGBTQ+ community across Northeast Pennsylvania and beyond. Born out of LGBTQ Pride’s long-standing commitment to advocacy and acceptance and now strengthened under Youth Infusion’s umbrella of youth-centered programming, the Transparent Podcast provides space for real stories, real conversations, and real connection.

This podcast amplifies the voices of LGBTQ+ youth, adults, families, and allies, offering a place where people can share their lived experiences without judgment and with full authenticity. Through interviews, storytelling, community spotlights, and honest dialogue, Transparent Podcast explores topics such as identity, belonging, mental health, relationships, leadership, and the everyday realities of navigating the world as an LGBTQ+ person. At its heart, the Transparent Podcast is about visibility, safety, and connection.

It’s about creating a platform where people feel seen, heard, and supported. It’s about reducing stigma, building understanding, and celebrating the beautiful spectrum of the LGBTQ+ community.

Now powered by Youth Infusion, the Transparent Podcast expands its mission with deeper youth engagement, greater community reach, and a strengthened commitment to mental health and leadership. Together, we are building pathways for LGBTQ+ youth to find community, share their voice, and connect with resources, allies, and opportunities that affirm who they are.
