My son Ricardo came out, and I flinched.

Not because of who he was. Because I was a mother from the South, and I knew what the world could be. I was afraid for him — afraid of how people would treat him, whether they’d accept him, what his life might look like walking this path. I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know how to help. I just knew I loved him and I was scared.

I had to change the way I viewed his world. That wasn’t easy. I was raised a certain way — and those things don’t leave you overnight. There was conflict inside me, if I’m honest. But what I knew more than anything I had ever been taught was this: I loved my son. And my love for him was bigger than my confusion. Bigger than what I didn’t yet understand.

I didn’t have all the answers. But I wanted him to feel safe. I wanted him to feel loved. And we had to give each other grace to get there — me learning to see the world he was stepping into, and him giving me room to figure out how to show up for him the right way. That grace is where this journal was born.

I wanted him to be mentally healthy and to understand the journey he was beginning. I wanted him to find his community — and to know, in the deepest part of himself, that he wasn’t walking any of this alone. I wanted him to read the stories of people who had started exactly where he was standing — different paths after coming out, but the same thread of victory and hope running through every single one.

That journal didn’t exist.

So Ricardo and I built it together.

What It Is

Adoration of the Queer Mind is a 52-week guided journal created for the LGBTQ+ community — born from a mother’s fear that became love in action, and a son who needed a place to put his story.

What’s Inside

52 weekly writing prompts — not generic questions, but real ones that meet you where you are in your identity, your relationships, your fear, and your joy. Each week builds on the last, so by week 52, you have a full year of yourself on paper.
7 real interviews with queer people who sat down, got vulnerable, and told the truth about their journey. Different paths after coming out. Different stories. But the same thread of hope and victory running through every single one.
Affirmation spreads placed throughout — not as filler, but timed to find you at the moments you need them most. Full pages. Bold type. Words that actually land.
Monthly reflection pages — a structured moment to stop and see how far you’ve come. What did I learn? What did I struggle with? What do I look forward to?
Handwritten-style quote pages on lavender, gold, and lime green — because this journal should feel like something when you open it.

For Parents Reading This

If you’re scared for your child right now — I understand that. I felt every bit of it.

And if you’re still figuring out how to see their world — if part of you is wrestling with how you were raised and what you believe and how much you love your child — that’s okay too. You don’t have to have it all figured out to show up for them. You just have to keep showing up.

Give yourself grace. Give them grace. That’s exactly where this journey starts.

This journal says what you might not have the words for yet: I see you. I support you. You are adored. And it keeps saying it for 52 weeks straight.

For the One Who Came Out

This was built for you. For everything that comes after the conversation — the quiet days and the loud ones, the moments of freedom and the moments of doubt, the long and sometimes hard and beautiful process of learning to know yourself fully.

You don’t have to figure it out alone. These pages were made for exactly where you are.
