In this re-aired episode of Awkward Conversations, Jodie Sweetin is joined by Mel Brown, LMFT, and actor and advocate Alec Mapa for an honest conversation about the realities LGBTQ+ youth face today—and what families and communities can do to show up better.
Together, they explore the importance of safe, affirming spaces, the mental health challenges impacting LGBTQ+ young people, and how social media can both uplift and harm. With LGBTQ+ youth facing significantly higher risks of depression, substance misuse, and suicide, this episode is a powerful reminder that acceptance, empathy, and proactive support save lives.
