"I have been living an authentic and wildly courageous life ever since." 

How do you step most honestly into your true self? How do you combat social messaging that tells you to be someone other than who you are? 

In this deeply vulnerable episode, Emmeline sits down with nonbinary author, identity coach, keynote speaker, photographer, and multi-passionate creative Don Mamone. Don shares some of the details of their journey of letting people in (rather than coming out) and talks about the importance of becoming aware of and building safer spaces for everyone to live authentically. They also talk about the way their identity journey inspired them to write Different Doesn't Mean Broken: Living Courageously Outside the Binary

Don also shares how they've cultivated a creative career as a multi-hyphenate entrepreneur, and the way they've pivoted professionally to accommodate their most authentic self.

To learn more about Don Mamone, or to follow their creative journey, visit their official website or follow them on Instagram. You can also order a signed copy of their book here.
