GP and award-winning poet Dr Asiel Adán Sánchez and their mother share their journey as a Mexican Australian family into understanding and embracing Asiel as a queer non-binary young person.

Asiel shares their experience growing up in Mexico, finding their queer identity in Australia as a young adult, and weaving together their queerness and Mexican heritage on their return to Mexico years later to share their authentic self with extended family and through their poetry.

Karina, their mother, shares a heart-wrenching story of past family loss; pain that was transformed into loving embrace for her son.
