Everything is Perfect by Kate Nason

After years of hiding, Judd was ready to come out of the closet and explore his sexuality. He met an older man who was grounded and ready for a relationship.

Instead of finding refuge in the safety of his partners love, the pain deep inside of him drove him to lie, drink, and further hurt his partner. Tanner stuck it out with for 9 years until the "big event". Judd blacked out - and he was shocked to learn of the destructive things he did after waking up the next day.

After hitting rock bottom, Judd chose to seek help and find a better way to be and to be a better person.

What happens when your intuition tells you one thing, yet you do another? Consequences!

This conversation is a vulnerable recounting of the heartache and lessons learned in dismissing one's intuition. In Kate's case, when her intuition hinted she couldn't trust those who asked for her heart in marriage, she doubted herself and said yes anyway.

The consequences? She found herself assaulted, gaslit, betrayed, and publically humiliated. In the wake of these heartbreaking experiences, she was determined to recover, find her voice, and to never again ignore her intuition.

Mission accomplished! Not only did she overcome but in time, she wrote her memoir, Everything is Perfect. I highly recommend listening to it on audible to hear how Kate "unbroke her heart", and found herself stronger on the other side.
