Venture description
Taryn Up My Heart is a podcast that aims to bring queer approaches to love, sex, and spirituality out of the margins and into the mainstream. In a post-#metoo world, we are in need of more resources to learn about healthy sexuality. The vulnerability, authenticity, and empowerment of queer peoples’ journeys can offer insight and inspiration to folks of all identities. Taryn Up My Heart shares homegrown stories of queer liberation through intimate conversations, teaching heart skills for our brave new world.
