Ep. #193: Coming Out Late - The Catalyst Experience, Part 2, (replay)


Listen Later

In this episode, Robin picks up where she left off in last weeks’ Episode of: “The Catalyst, Part One”, by first reminding us that catalyst relationships can and DO have one of the most significant impacts on us during the early stages of our Coming Out Late journey. While there is a certain amount of mystery and excitement surrounding a catalyst experience, Robin reminds us to proceed with caution, IF we are to proceed at all. Robin also outlines for us several necessary assumptions and considerations to think about, (preferably), before we ever even meet our catalyst. In “The Catalyst, Part Two”, Robin covers what our options are after we’ve met our catalyst, and why it is so important not to lose ourselves in this, or any future relationship(s). Examining the catalyst experience can be a very deep and complex process, and in this episode, Robin only begins to scratch the surface as to why catalyst relationships tend to be so confusing, complex and volatile. Robin also covers a variety of things that need our consideration before considering to act-on the allure of a catalyst.

In this episode, you will learn…

  • What purpose does a catalyst serve?
  • What assumptions must be considered BEFORE we meet our catalyst?
  • Some of the key considerations that can impact an experience with our catalyst.
  • The three most common “types” of catalyst experiences.
  • How to take personal inventory at all stages of our coming out journey, but especially prior to revealing ourselves to our catalyst?
  • The #1 best way to deal with and handle the dreaded catalyst break-up!
