Pride and Perspectives is a thought-provoking and emotionally resonant podcast hosted by Dina Walters, an author, publicist, and advocate.
The show centers Progressive and LGBTQIA+ voices and stories, offering a unique blend of personal narrative, cultural critique, and community commentary. With an emphasis on authenticity and emotional intelligence, Pride and Perspectives navigates complex social, political, and identity-based issues through the lived experience of its host and the guests who appear.
The tone of the podcast is deeply human and reflective, often intimate, while remaining intellectually rigorous. Dina’s approach is guided by a deep commitment to justice, equity, and empowerment—especially for transgender people and others whose voices have historically been silenced or overlooked. Whether exploring systemic discrimination, celebrating queer resilience, or unpacking pop culture moments through a queer lens, the show consistently returns to one central theme: the power of truth-telling in community.
Episodes range from current events and policy deep-dives to personal reflections and interviews. Dina often shares openly from her own journey as a trans woman navigating public life, internal healing, and political urgency. This self-disclosure sets the tone for many of the conversations on the show, modeling a form of leadership grounded in vulnerability, care, and lived wisdom. Her commentary is both heartfelt and informed, often linking contemporary concerns to historical patterns and broader sociopolitical contexts.
The podcast has become a space where listeners are not only informed but emotionally fortified. Dina is especially skilled at connecting the dots between personal identity and larger social movements, helping audiences understand how individual transformation and collective progress go hand in hand. Listeners return each week not only for Dina’s insight, but for the sense of solidarity the show fosters—particularly among those navigating the intersections of queerness, gender identity, race, and class.
Pride and Perspectives also embraces the role of cultural witness. Episodes often acknowledge the grief, exhaustion, and rage that come with marginalization while simultaneously lifting up stories of queer joy, resistance, and triumph. The podcast does not shy away from difficult truths—such as political backlashes against trans rights or the emotional toll of navigating medical systems—but it always strives to offer a pathway forward.
While grounded in activism, the podcast is not partisan in tone but instead ethical in focus. Dina examines the erosion of democratic norms, bureaucratic abuses, and social violence through the lens of dignity and human rights. The show regularly draws attention to how shifting political landscapes affect real people, particularly LGBTQIA+ individuals who are too often treated as collateral damage in ideological warfare.
In addition to solo episodes, Pride and Perspectives features a variety of voices, including fellow activists, artists, journalists, and everyday people who bring rich and diverse experiences to the table. Each episode is carefully curated to amplify perspectives that inform, inspire, and challenge conventional thinking.
Pride and Perspectives is more than a podcast; it is a forum for courage, clarity, and connection. It is a platform where listening becomes a radical act, and where stories become a means of both personal empowerment and social transformation. Guided by Dina’s vision and voice, the show continues to evolve as a vital space for critical reflection and collective hope in the face of adversity.

This podcast isn’t just a rah rah Pride Month pep talk —i t’s a glitter-edged truth-glowing, from-the-heart power surge brought to you in Dina’s way. After speaking to the Employee Resource Group of one of Michigan’s leading insurance providers, Dina turned the mic back on herself—because why let an iconic message live in a conference room when it could sashay into your ears?
And yes, in true discount-diva-meets-public form, she’s calling this one: Pride: From the Inside Out (Dina’s Version). Because when what’s said there has to stay there, what’s a stylish transwoman with a podcast to do? Take a cue from Taylor Swift and drop her own take, obviously.
Expect sizzle, soul, and maybe a side of sass as Dina wraps reflections, revelations, and realness into one empowering episode. It’s Pride redefined—not by the parade, floats or corporate slogans, but from the lived, loved, and luminous inside out.
