E4: Raising my kids with my wife as a bi mum of two in the US military: Abby's Rollercoaster Life
Joining Sanjay this week is Abby of @abbysrollercoasterlife. She is married to her wife Jamie and they have two daughters. Abby joined the US military in the times of “don’t ask don’t tell” and it was there that she was able to uncover her queerness.
We talk about their life as LGBT parents, how Abby and her wife Jamie met, life being LGBTQ in the military, the intersection between being queer and black, the positive representation that Abby hopes to give in the world even when it isn’t always easy and how her own upbringing influences who she is as a parent.
The Proud Parent Club is the inclusive LGBTQ+ parenting podcast and community hosted by Sanjay Sood-Smith, gay dad through surrogacy with his husband Doug, a.k.a. The Travelling Gays. Subscribe for reminders of each LGBT parenting podcast out weekly and follow on Instagram.

The Proud Parent Club is the inclusive podcast and community for LGBTQ+ parents and future LGBT parents. Sanjay Sood-Smith (he/him) is joined by different guests each week to discuss all aspects of family building and LGBT parenting for lesbian, gay, bi, trans and queer people. Sanjay and his husband Doug (a.k.a The Travelling Gays on Instagram) became parents through through surrogacy and before starting their journey spent a lot of time researching the different ways that LGBTQ+ people become parents and these will be explored by talking to experts and people from across the LGBTQ+ community who have taken different routes to becoming parents including adoption, surrogacy in different countries, co-parenting, IUI, IVF, reciprocal IVF, solo-parenting and having children before coming out. The Proud Parent Club will also explore what happens when a child arrives arrives, the experiences of being parents, the highs, the lows, the challenges of being an LGBT parent and shared wisdom of how these are overcome.
