Love Beyond Labels: Meagan Skidmore's Journey with her LGBTQIA+ Son

  • サマリー

  • Today, we're thrilled to welcome Meagan Skidmore, a powerful Life Transformation Coach whose own journey of awakening began in 2019 when her child came out as queer (LGBTQIA+). Raised in a conservative faith tradition, this revelation shattered Meagan's foundation and forced her to confront the cognitive dissonance between her upbringing and her inner truth. Rather than rebuilding her life according to external expectations, Meagan chose to embrace her authentic self and listen to her inner wisdom. Now, through her hybrid coaching program and community known as "The Other Side of Maybe™," she guides others to awaken to their truth, break free from confining boxes, and step boldly into their power. Meagan believes that purpose comes from within, and that we are whole simply because we exist—not because of what we do. Today, she'll share insights on living authentically and unapologetically, helping us recognize when we're lying to ourselves and how to embrace our genuine selves instead. Please join me in welcoming Meagan Skidmoore!
