As Seen On Oprah Daily
Dr. Lulu, a retired Lieutenant Colonel and Commander in the Air Force, has had quite the journey, from her time in the military to becoming an advocate for LGBTQ+ youth. After her child came out as non-binary, she made a life-changing decision to leave her career as a pediatrician and focus on preventing LGBTQ+ youth suicide.
Now, she supports parents like herself, offering guidance and understanding. Her passion for creating safe spaces and promoting self-acceptance shines through in her work. Plus, she even had an interview with Oprah about her incredible journey! Dr. Lulu’s story is a testament to her strength and her commitment to making a difference in the lives of LGBTQ+ youth and their families.
“It’s probably a phase.”
When I told my Nigerian father at 16 that I liked girls, his response was surprisingly calm: “Nne, it’s probably a phase.” Fast forward to parenting my own child, suspecting they were gay at 2, and worrying about how the world would react. It was a journey of self-discovery, especially when my kiddo helped start the Gender-Sexuality Alliance in high school and later introduced me to the term non-Binary at their Stanford graduation.

“I just had my 60 minute coaching with Dr. Lulu. What a powerful session! She helped me reach the place where I was able to fully verbalize the root of my struggle. It is hard to admit that I am coming from a place of fear, but there is power in truth. Now that I know the struggle, I can work on it. Dr. Lulu helped me get to this truth and empowered me to find a way to address my fear. Her insight helped me see what I need to change and let go of in order to be the best possible support to my child. If you haven’t signed up yet, I highly recommend you do! — with Dr Uchenna Lizmay Umeh.”

“I have to agree! I too had a session with Dr. Lulu. I haven’t had a moment to sit down and write a big letter on how amazing she is. She listened to all my concerns and made me feel as if I had known her for years. She reassured me and gave me the confidence that I was on the right track. She gave me some tools and ways to overcome my self doubt, by making me realize that I am doing a great job. She asked questions that made me truly think. I highly…. HIGHLY recommend anyone taking advantage of her service. She’s a very sweet, understanding and intelligent woman, who is compassionate and wants to help families grown and become stronger. She is a fantastic ally for our LGBTQ community and families!”

“I just had my first coaching session with Dr. Lulu today and it was extremely helpful! I am so grateful to her for her time and could feel she believed my feelings to be valid. It was extremely helpful to realize that my child’s experiences with others (in school, with peers, etc.) are his, not mine, and it would serve everyone better to focus on the things I can reasonably control. I was mostly allowing fear to control me when it’s more about the fact that my child really needs a supportive, loving parent who is present and loving.
Learned it is best to live in the here and now rather than worry about things in the future over which I have no control. Such a great session!!
Thank you!!!”

“Dr. Lulu… I enjoyed the conversation today on How to teach your children about racism: A letter From A Black Morther to White Parents, and it was absolutely wonderful! I enjoyed you sharing your story, your tears, your passion, your love from a mother to a child, I connected immediately. You spoke about your sons’ and.. OMGoodnes, I instantly thought of my, man child and only child, who is my life and I love so much! I pray for him every day, I pray for his actions when he’s away from home, and thank God when he returns.
I can not thank you enough, this call made my day! I loved it! God bless you and your family! Peace.”
