How to Embrace Queer Joy This Pride Season – Damian Pelliccione (They/Them)

How to Embrace Queer Joy This Pride Season – Damian Pelliccione (They/Them)

What exactly is Queer Joy? How do you create it? And where can we, as gay men, unleash its power to make the biggest impact? I’m sitting down with Revry TV Co-Founder and CEO Damian Pelliccione (They/Them), who knows a thing or two about it—after all, their unapologetic Queer Joy helped land them on Goldman Sachs’ Top 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs list.

You might be thinking, Why does this matter if I’m a gay man over 40? Because representation matters. How we show up in the world is one of the most powerful callings we can answer. No fears, no excuses, no apologies.

In This Episode:
  • Find out who the 3rd largest consumer group is and why that matters to us.
  • Learn the '1 in 3 statistic' that’s flipping the script on anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric.
  • Discover how to embrace brands and organizations you thought turned their back on our community.

It’s time to show up bigger, bolder, and more joyfully than ever. Ready to unleash your Queer Joy? Let’s go.
