In this forward-looking episode, Diggie and Sabia unpack the cases that may be headed to SCOTUS next, including challenges to marriage equality and state bans on conversion therapy. They explore what these potential rulings could mean for queer families and children, healthcare providers, and the small businesses and nonprofits that serve them. Even before cases are heard, the constant uncertainty takes a toll: clients hesitate, funders pause, and queer orgs are forced into reactive planning. Sabia and Diggie break down: - What happens if Obergefell is weakened or overturned - How the Respect for Marriage Act helps—and where gaps remain - The stakes of conversion therapy challenges for mental health providers and youth-serving orgs - Why instability alone reshapes programming, risk, and funding - Practical steps queer business leaders can take now to build resilience This episode provides clarity in a moment when the future feels unpredictable and equips queer leaders to prepare, adapt, and build strong futures regardless of what the Court decides. 2026 Update: Marriage equality will not go to SCOTUS - for now.

Confused about what the latest executive orders, state bans, and federal guidance really mean for your work? You’re not alone. In this episode, Sabia and Diggie break down the fast-moving legal and political shifts shaping how queer-led small businesses, nonprofits, and entrepreneurs show up in 2025. Together, they unpack the basics - what executive orders actually do, how state-level directives impact publicly funded organizations, and why private companies often overcomply out of fear rather than legal obligation. Most importantly, they answer the question we hear constantly: “Can I still talk about DEI, inclusivity, antiracism, and trans rights… or am I at risk?” If you’ve been trying to make sense of what’s happening in Washington and across the country, this conversation will bring clarity, calm, and a path forward.

Join Sabia and Diggie as they break down two landmark Supreme Court cases - Mahmoud v. Taylor and United States v. Skrmetti - and explore what these rulings mean for small queer-owned businesses, nonprofits, and community leaders. From legal takeaways to real-world implications, they unpack precedent-setting decisions, chilling effects, and practical strategies for navigating this shifting landscape. This conversation offers clarity, context, and actionable insights to help your organization thrive in uncertain times.
