You can expect a raw, calm, compassionate, and even funny presentation style from me. I use layman's terms, take time to explain in a non-judgmental way, and encourage curiosity from the audience. Past audiences have said I am relatable, real, and lovingly direct.
Heather Hester is the founder of Chrysalis Mama which provides support and education to parents and allies of LGBTQIA adolescents, teenagers, and young adults. She is also the creator/host of the Top 1% podcast Just Breathe: Parenting your LGBTQ Teen. As an advocate and coach, she believes the coming out process is equal parts beautiful and messy. She works with her clients to let go of fear and feelings of isolation so that they can reconnect with themselves and their children with awareness and compassion. Heather also works within organizations via specialized programming to bring education and empowerment with a human touch. She is so excited to announce the release of her first book on May 14, 2024 - Parenting with Pride: Unlearn Bias and Embrace, Empower, and Love Your LGBTQ Teen. Married to the funniest guy she’s ever known and the mother of four extraordinary kids (two of whom are LGBTQIA) and one sassy mini bernadoodle, Heather believes in being authentic and embracing the messiness. You can almost always find her with a cup of coffee nearby, whether she’s at her computer, on her yoga mat, or listening to her favorite music.
