In this episode, I’m answering anonymous instagram questions about coming out, labels, fear, and community.

We talk about that strange mix of relief and heaviness after coming out, and whether that feeling ever shifts. I share how living openly felt like putting down a backpack I didn’t realise I was carrying.

We get into the reality that coming out isn’t a one-time thing. It shows up at work, with family, in dating. Over time, you learn discernment, when to share and when you don’t owe anyone anything.

We also chat about the fear of pushing people away, label pressure, and how identity can evolve. And finally, we talk about how powerful queer community can be when you’re figuring yourself out.
