This video was recorded for a large pharmaceutical company and its employees as a part of their National Coming Out Day activities. It was for internal use only but with a little editing, I can also share it with you! It shares a bit of my journey of coming to realize I was gay at a young age, coming out in the '80s, going into the church closet in the '90s until 2015, and coming back out. If you have ever struggled with who you are for a long time, because of religious reasons, take a listen. See if you can relate. If you know of a religious person who has a difficult time with this topic or thinks of one while you are listening to my story, consider sharing this with them.
