Connecting the Dots

Research and Real Talk

For LGBTQ+ Adults, Caregivers & Trauma Survivors

Every week, peer-reviewed studies are published on LGBTQ+ health, trauma recovery, and the experience of family members caring for a loved one with serious mental illness. They are written in academic language, locked behind paywalls, and cited in grant applications by people who will never meet the communities those studies were supposed to serve.

Connecting the Dots closes that distance.

Each episode takes one new study relevant to LGBTQ+ adults, family caregivers, or trauma survivors, and translates it into plain language. What the research actually found. What it means for your life. What it doesn't say, and why that matters too.

Hosted by Yoyce Geronimo Galvan, M.A., queer Latina, behavioral health strategist, and someone who spent a decade inside the systems this show holds accountable.
