In this compelling episode, recorded at our Heard Live event on the theme of love, Christopher shares his poignant story, starting with his childhood in a remote Canadian town as a "little gay nerd who still believed in magic." He discusses the impact of growing up without role models and how sharing his story publicly has shaped his understanding of love and identity.

Christopher discusses meeting his partner, a moment that profoundly changed his view of love. He also reflects on how themes of magic and fantasy have influenced his relationships and approach to life's challenges.

This episode also explores overcoming isolation and the importance of community support through his journey.

Join us to hear how embracing vulnerability and accepting help can transform our understanding of love and connection.
