Whatever your child's journey is, go together. This one one of the most beautiful statements Jacob made on his episode. How many of us need to expand our awareness and understanding of the LGTBQ+ community and show more love to these members that are around us? Do we need to expand our personal social circles to have more diversity?I got the wonderful pleasure of sitting down with Jacob Dunford who shares his story of being Gay and navigating being Mormon. One of my favorite parts about Jacob's story was his parents absolute support and love for their son. They are truly a beautiful example to us all.Jacob works at Encirle which has a beautiful slogan, "no sides, only love.' They embody a culture and an environment that there is a place for everyone at the dinner table. Jacob shares, "What does that really break down to? Mormon or atheist, or anything in that spectrum? gay or straight? Male or female, Republican or Democrat. There's a place for you at the dinner table. That's our motto. That's our methodology. That is how we go about everything. "Jacob also shares that he feels that a lot of people within religion and outside of religion are looking for a way to show up for the LGBTQ community in the way they know how. "So often what happens is we sort out people of religion and people who have left religion into  two groups that can't communicate." Jacobs feels strongly about being someone that wants to be that person who reaches accross the isle and bridged the divide and he's doing damn good job at it. There were several beautiful pieces of this interview that I was so honored to listen to and now share with you. Let's assist the world in building bridges, of holding and giving unconditional love for everyone. To learn more about encircle go here:https://encircletogether.org/Follow Jacob on IG @jacobdunfordGet signed up for my Leaving Religion Course here:https://www.amandajoyloveland.com/leavingreligioncourseReady to reignite your heart with your souls purpose? https://www.amandajoyloveland.com/leavingreligioncourse@amanda.joy.loveland
