Listen Later

In this Part 2 REPLAY of the “Coming Out Late In A Hetero Marriage” episode, Robin jumps right back in with her first-ever conversation with husband David, and his wife and late bloomer, Monique, who are actually going through Monique’s Coming Out Late process in real-time, and SHARING their experiences with us! There’s LOTS to absorb, take-in and learn!

In this episode you will … 

  • “Kroger Parking Lot Therapy”, and having those REAL HARD conversations and asking one another the big scary questions, and discussing the really big issues.
  • What does David mean by, “...the grass is greener where you water it…”
  • Discussing the “pie-chart” of an entire relationship, and which parts are in need of attention.
  • Looking at our pasts and getting real and getting honest with one another. Doing our shadow-work - together.
  • Women dealing with sexual obligation to please their husbands.
  • The Key to Relationship Progress? Communication! Communication! Communication!
  • Before throwing the baby out with the bathwater, try problem-solving through creative experimentation and mutually agreed-upon creative solutions.
  • Is your marriage worth working on? Are you willing to go to any-length to “save” your marriage, AND, work together on incorporating “her” newfound queer sexuality?
  • David & Monique answer Robin’s questions: (1) What has been the hardest part, (so far), in Monique’s Coming Out Late process? (2) What’s been the scariest part of Monique’s Coming Out Late process, so far, for each of you?
  • Monique and David also answer: (1) What advice would you give to your younger self, knowing what you know now? And, (2) What advice would you give to others on the brink of a similar path?
