Journey to Self-Acceptance

In honour of National Coming Out Day, we’re diving deep into a sentiment many gay men have struggled with at some point: "I wish I wasn’t gay." While this feeling may seem contradictory on a day meant to celebrate coming out, it’s a reality for many who grapple with their sexual orientation and the journey to self-acceptance.

In this episode, we unpack the challenges of embracing your authentic self, including:

• How we came to accept our sexuality
• Would we change our sexuality if we could?
• Words of encouragement for those who wish they were something different than they are

Whether you’re on your own journey of self-discovery or supporting someone who is, this episode is filled with heart, vulnerability, and hope. Please do share this episode with someone who needs to hear it to foster more understanding, compassion, and support on this National Coming Out Day.
