Raising Dad: Special Federal Election Edition

In this powerful Special Federal Election Edition of Raising Dad: The Podcast, Rory Giffen sits down with Dr. Jill Andrew for an unforgettable conversation grounded in honesty, vulnerability, and hope. Dr. Jill Andrew (@jillslastword) is a trailblazing Canadian leader — the first openly queer Black person elected to Ontario's Legislature. A passionate advocate for equity, body positivity, mental health, and cultural inclusion, Jill brings her full self to this open dialogue. No interruptions. No pretense. Just two generations engaging deeply about politics, community, leadership, and the urgent need for authenticity in public life.

Rory Giffen, host of Raising Dad, creates the space for real conversation — staying true to his own voice, while honoring Jill’s courage and truth. What unfolds is a rare, grace-filled hour of connection, vision, and mutual respect. 🎙️ Dr. Andrew is not only a political changemaker, having served as the Official Opposition Critic for Women's Social and Economic Opportunity and for Culture and Heritage, but also a dedicated activist for body confidence through her work with Body Confidence Canada. 🎙️ She holds a PhD from York University and is a co-owner of Glad Day Bookshop, the world’s oldest LGBTQ bookstore. This episode is a masterclass in leadership, resilience, and the transformative power of authentic dialogue.
