I honour all families no matter how they come together. This week, I’m talking with Steve Disslehorst who, as a gay man, wanted to expand his family to become a dad. He is now the proud dad of two kids...but the journey was less than easy. Steve talks about his rollercoaster journey in his book, Determined to Be Dad: A Journey of Faith, Resilience and Love.

In this episode, we talk about: The millions of Millennials who are actively looking to expand their families The difficulties of adoption and surrogacy as a gay man The stresses and disappointments The hope for families with an LGBTQ child who don’t know how to navigate parenting their child For a free chapter of Steve’s book, Determined to Be Dad, visit www.parent-toolbox.com About Steve Disselhorst Steve Disselhorst specializes in personal & professional leadership development and consulting for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and is the author of the memoir Determined To Be Dad: A Journey of Faith, Resilience, and Love. Before founding his firm, Steve worked for Genentech, a biotech company, and is a veteran healthcare marketer. Currently, he serves on the San Mateo County LGBTQ Commission and is a speaker for the San Francisco LGBTQ Speaker’s Bureau. Steve is the father of two wonderful children who are the center of his world.
