Episode description
Robin addresses a recent post about fears surrounding being married and questioning your sexuality and why open lines of communication, honesty, and courage are key to exploring who you are…
In this episode, you will learn…
- Coming out doesn’t mean everything about your life must change instantly
- Remember you can be courageous or you can be comfortable—you can’t be both
- Fear is a killer: Ask for time, communication, and soul searching
- Don’t stay for the wrong reasons and don’t leave for the wrong reasons
- The importance of listening to your body and understanding we can’t be afraid of what we don’t know
- Advice to find a therapist and to be fully transparent and trust they can help you
- All relationships require nurturing—don’t settle for something unfulfilling
- It takes courage as well as permission to find out who you are
