We all think of Bias as something obvious, however, most of the time it can be subtle and take some time to unlearn. In this episode, I speak with Zane Landin about how Bias affects both our everyday lives and the workplace.

May is officially Mental Health Awareness Month. Mental health is finally starting to get the recognition it deserves as far as treatment, but there are still stigmas that prevent people from being aware of and seeking help for their issues. Unfortunately, LGTBQ individuals are at higher risk for developing mental illnesses. You cannot get better if you don't know that you may have an illness. Together with my friend Colin Denton, we break down some of our experiences with mental illnesses, from how it affects us everyday as well as how we work to overcome it. If you feel you may need help, consult a therapist or your doctor. They can provide the best guidance for mental health care.  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/andre-metoyer/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/andre-metoyer/support

Thank you everyone for your support of The Bear Share Show! Reflecting on Season 1, I am so grateful for the support and topics discussed on the show. The purpose of the show is to bring light and discuss common issues many of us have in the LBGTQ community, Bear Community, and the general world we live in today. I have had many heartwarming messages of people really identifying with the topics, and that means the world to me. Thank you all for being so amazing and stay tuned soon for Season 2!  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/andre-metoyer/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/andre-metoyer/support

We often associate the holidays with family and fun festivities, but not everyone shares that same experience. Many people in the LGBTQ community are sadly disconnected from their blood families, and can often find the holidays to be stressful and/or depressing. This is why you will tend to see members of the LGBTQ community form what are called "Chosen Families". Together with my guest host Adam Barkhouse, we discuss what a Chosen family is, why they are formed, and how they can make the holidays feel like they are intended to be.  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/andre-metoyer/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/andre-metoyer/support
