Coming Out vs. Inviting In: Navigating Authenticity with The CCC
It's not about coming out, it's about being our authentic selves. In order for me to be well, I have to put some light on that stuff, and it's unfortunate that the stuff is even in the dark to begin with.
What does it really mean to 'come out'? And is there a better way to share our true selves with the world? This episode of 'At The CCC' dives into these questions and more. Hosts Bonnie Violet, Anthony, and Lou Lou bring their unique perspectives to the table, discussing the modern idea of 'coming out' versus 'inviting in'. It's not just about sexual orientation or gender; they also touch on recovery, HIV status, mental health, and personal beliefs.
How do we disclose these deeply personal parts of ourselves? And how does keeping secrets affect our well-being? You'll hear candid stories and thoughtful reflections on the power of authenticity and the complexities of disclosure. From relationships with parents to the role of language in either connecting or alienating us, this conversation covers it all. Plus, there's a nod to the upcoming Aloha roundup, adding a touch of community spirit.
If you're navigating your own journey of self-discovery and seeking a supportive space to explore these themes, this episode is a must-listen.
