The first year after coming out can feel like an emotional rollercoaster—exciting, scary, and full of questions. How do you navigate this transformative time while finding your community, and embracing your authentic self?

In this episode, we’re talking about the unique challenges and opportunities that come with living out for the first time. We’ll discuss:

  • What was your first year out like?
  • What are some common struggles newly out gay men face, and how can they overcome them?
  • How do you figure out who you authentically are after hiding for so long?
  • What’s your advice for building a supportive LGBTQ+ community?

    • Whether you’re newly out, supporting someone who is, or reflecting on your own journey, this episode offers practical tools, heartfelt insights, and encouragement for thriving in this pivotal year.
