What does it really take to lead in the queer community? Is visibility enough, or does authentic leadership require something deeper?

This week on The Pull Up Podcast, Awny sits down with Nik Pettye, leader of The Qindred Qoralition, for a powerful conversation on why authenticity isn’t just a personal choice—it’s the foundation of impactful leadership. Together, they unpack the courage to show up fully, the responsibility of leading with integrity, and how embracing your truth creates space for others to do the same.

Whether you’re a community leader, advocate, or simply navigating your own journey, this episode is a reminder that the strongest movements are built by people who refuse to hide who they are.

Because leadership doesn’t begin with a title—it begins with authenticity.

What if the very thing you’re trying to rush through is the thing that’s preparing you for what’s next?

In this episode of The Pull Up Podcast, “Reframing the Process,” we challenge the way we view life’s in-between seasons. Too often we resent the process while romanticizing the promise, focusing on the destination and overlooking the lessons along the journey. But the truth is, the process isn’t punishment, it’s preparation. It’s where character is built, wisdom is gained, and purpose is refined.

Join us as we explore how shifting your perspective can help you embrace the journey, trust the growth, and recognize that the process is often what qualifies you for the promise. Sometimes the breakthrough isn’t at the end of the road, it’s in how you learn to walk it. 🎙️✨
