About this listen
What does it take to protect hope when the world feels increasingly hostile?
In this powerful episode of Ask For An Answer, host Jim Fielding sits down with Jorge Valencia, CEO of the Point Foundation and former Executive Director of The Trevor Project, for a deeply personal and timely conversation about LGBTQ+ leadership, resilience, and responsibility. Jorge shares how education, mentorship, and community can quite literally save lives—especially during moments of cultural backlash, political change, and isolation.
In this conversation, you’ll hear about:
- Why scholarships are only the beginning—and community is the real impact
- How LGBTQ youth are navigating education, safety, and identity in a post-COVID world
- What history teaches us about resilience, resistance, and the power of staying visible
This episode is a reminder that hope isn’t passive—it’s built through action, mentorship, and showing up for the next generation when they need it most.
