Sometimes, just being heard is enough to change someone’s life. That’s why we are continuing our powerful conversation series, “Sharing Space” – where LGBTQ+ young people sit down with supportive adults to talk, listen, and connect.

We’re currently casting for 2 new episodes:

  • EPISODE THEME 1: Peer Support – We’re looking for LGBTQ+ young people (ages 18–24) who’ve felt the real impact of peer support—whether through a friend, a teacher, a team, an online space, or chosen family. This is your chance to be seen, heard, and to help others by simply telling the truth.
  • EPISODE THEME 2: Conversion Therapy Survivors – We’re also casting LGBTQ+ adults of all ages who survived conversion therapy and are now in a stable, healthy place. This conversation is meant to educate, expose, and empower, with truth at the center. You are not alone. If you’re ready to speak, we’re ready to listen—and amplify.

We are especially hoping to find folks from or currently living in: Iowa, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, or Hawaii. But, if you’re elsewhere, don’t count yourself out. 

If you or someone you know is ready to be part of the conversation, apply online at: https://sharingspacecasting.castingcrane.com 

This isn’t reality TV. This is real life. Real voices. Real impact.

Let’s share space—and change lives.

This was met with confusion and eventually anger from my mom, whose favorite holiday is Christmas. If she noticed my moping, I was to smile immediately. “Smile, wear the red velvet dress and white tights. I don’t care…

Andrew Mortensen, Biking Across the World for Trevor

Starting in 2020, Andrew Mortensen felt the gloom of COVID-19. Initially searching for a way to spend more time outdoors, he took the small step of biking between two national parks in the Pacific Northwest. Little did he know that his journey would eventually span 37 countries and over 27,000 miles, making him the first openly gay man to cycle around the globe, from North America to the tip of South America, from Spain to Singapore. Along the way, Andrew fundraised over $19,000 for The Trevor Project and wore an orange Trevor t-Shirt to spread the message of hope that…
