In this special final episode of "10 Years Out: Stories from My Queer Community," the tables are turned as I take a step back from my usual role as host and become the guest. My close friend and fellow advocate, Kimberly Culbertson, sits down for an intimate interview, delving deep into my transformative journey since coming out.
As the conversation unfolds, I opens up about my experiences growing up in an evangelical community and the pivotal moment when I decided to embrace my true identity at the age of 29. Sharing my personal story, I reflect on the continuous nature of coming out, revealing that the process never truly ends. I highlight the challenges and triumphs that have shaped my path, as well as the surprising ways in which my life has unfolded.
I candidly discuss the ways in which my foundations were shaken and how navigating through uncharted territories proved to be both difficult and rewarding. Through my story, I explore the profound lessons I've learned, emphasizing the importance of empathy and shedding judgment. My journey has allowed me to intimately understand what it means to be "the Other," ultimately transforming me into a stronger advocate for equality and inclusivity.
Join Kimberly Culbertson as she guides this heartfelt conversation, allowing me to reflect on my growth, resilience, and the vibrant, colorful place I now call home.
Tune in to the final episode of "10 Years Out: Stories from My Queer Community" to hear my powerful narrative, and discover how my journey has inspired me to become a beacon of hope and understanding within the queer community and beyond.
