Kelly Corrigan Wonders

Kelly talks with Chasten Buttigieg, teacher, advocate, and husband of U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg. The conversation goes deep into Chasten's coming out story, no easy task in his conservative, Catholic, rural Michigan family. His greatest fears were losing family connections and never finding the kind of acceptance we all need. The episode highlights the principles and practices of rupture and repair, emphasizing the importance of unconditional love, communication, and ongoing growth.
