Santosh - I had to come out to my kids!
Manage episode 491796476 series 3674792
This week, I chat with Santosh, who shares his journey of becoming a dad while living in a heterosexual relationship with his then-wife. Santosh goes on to tell me about the events in his life that eventually led him to bravely come out at 46 and start living as his authentic self.
There’s a touching moment in our conversation when Santosh describes coming out to his kids. Without giving too much away, I can say that this heartwarming moment serves as a reminder that kids have a way of simplifying things, while we adults tend to overcomplicate them.
In this episode, Santosh refers to the support he received from GAMMA, which stands for the Gay and Married Men’s Association.
GAMMA is for men who are married to or partnered with women but are coming to terms with same-sex attraction. It provides safe and confidential opportunities to discuss issues related to their sexuality and relationships. GAMMA is a peer support group—not a professional counseling service—run by volunteers, ordinary men who have been through their own struggles and journeys.
