In the heartfelt season finale of Together Moving Forward, Stef Vachon welcomes Gary, a powerful voice of resilience and advocacy. Coming out in the 1980s, Gary once believed that parenthood was beyond reach for someone like him. But times changed, and so did he. Now a proud gay father and passionate advocate for minority rights, Gary shares his personal story of navigating identity, embracing fatherhood, and standing up for what truly matters.
This episode is about growth, hope, and the unexpected paths life can take when we dare to believe in ourselves. It’s also a moment of reflection and gratitude as Stef closes Season 1 by celebrating the journey so far, and the community that made it possible.
Whether you’ve been here since episode one or you’re just tuning in, this conversation will leave you inspired to keep moving forward, together.
