Cory Holton's Journey: Embracing Self-Acceptance Amidst Grief

I'm grateful that you were able to realize, like, okay, I don't want to hate myself, I want to love myself, and I think one of the coolest things ever is that that process began in the parking lot of a mormon temple and you felt clarity.
What does it take to embrace who you truly are while navigating the stormy seas of grief? In this episode of the 'Finding Strength' podcast, hosts Matt Quackenbush, Brindy Quackenbush, and Bethany Tenney sit down with Cory Holton, a man whose life story is a testament to resilience and self-acceptance. Cory opens up about the profound loss of his father and the emotional rollercoaster that followed. But his journey doesn't stop there.
Amidst the turmoil, Cory found the courage to come out as gay to his family, challenging societal norms and embracing his true self. The conversation goes beyond personal anecdotes, touching on broader themes like dealing with anxiety and depression, the importance of self-care, and how religion can influence personal growth. Cory’s story is not just about overcoming grief; it's about finding strength in vulnerability and learning to love oneself.
As Cory puts it, “I’m grateful that you were able to realize, like, okay, I don’t want to hate myself, I want to love myself.” Tune in for an episode filled with raw honesty, practical advice, and a lot of heart.
