Told by his father that he would ”never be happy,” and ”I don’t think you’re a Christian,” created wounds in him that still resonate today, even though he has chosen to forgive him. Carter Holmes struggled to know himself early in his journey. He was placed into Reparative Therapy and was ignored when he was suicidal and wanted to meet with a Therapist. Carter chose to go through the 12 Step Program, only to learn that he was not an addict, he was just Gay! Carter has a book launching in October, and a TEDx talk coming up! He was gracious enough to share his journey and his wisdom in today’s episode!
