Pride is more than just a month — it's a celebration of identity, community, and the courage to show up as yourself. In this episode of Dear Headspace, Robin Hopkins sits down with meditation teacher Dora Kamau to discuss the tension between Pride's powerful roots and its commercialization, what authentic allyship looks like beyond June, and how mindfulness can help us navigate life's most personal challenges. Along the way, they answer three tough questions asked by listeners: How to correct someone who gets your pronouns wrong (especially when there's a power dynamic involved); how to move on from heartbreak when a relationship wasn't built on full authenticity; and how to let go of appearance-based self-judgment and reconnect with what makes you feel most alive. Whether you're part of the LGBTQ+ community, an ally, or simply interested in living more authentically, this conversation offers practical tools, compassion, and a reminder that you don't have to fit anyone else's expectations.
