In this special Miguel & Holly Uncensored: Sunday Session, Miguel sits down with one of his closest friends, Derek, for an honest, emotional conversation about identity, resilience, and finding self-acceptance.

Derek opens up about how his moral compass was shaped by watching his parents' marriage and divorce, his powerful coming out story, and the internal struggle of learning to love who he is after being conditioned to believe being gay was wrong. He also shares what it was like to move to a new city right before the pandemic, lose his job, and still find a way to survive, grow, and thrive.

This is a raw and inspiring reminder that even in our hardest seasons, we can still find peace, purpose, and pride.
