Gay Men Going Deeper The Challenges of Being a Gay Man
In this insightful episode, we turn our focus to the often unspoken challenges that come with being a gay man. The reality for many queer folks is that our lives are met with unique hurdles that impact our mental, emotional, and social well-being.
Through candid discussions and personal experiences, we are looking at these challenges from the gay male perspective. Some of the topics we’ll be covering are:

- Social discrimination
- External and internalized homophobia
- Dealing with rejection
- Loneliness and isolation

- Sexual shame
- Impacts to self-worth and self-esteem
