    Description

    Brian Janes had a wife of 30 years, two teenage kids, and a successful career.  At face value, everything looked good.  The problem was that Brian didn't have a clue who he really was.  He shares a story of being in the 7th grade and being so numb from repressing feelings that he didn't understand, that he would cut himself with a razor blade, just so he could feel something.  Everything unraveled at age 47 when he was driving to work one morning and, in the car, he said out loud, I'm gay!  Brian's demonstration of vulnerability is truly inspiring.  If you ever feel lost like you don't really know who you are, this episode is for you.Brian's ProfileBe a GuestFollow Us on FacebookPower Moments With MaddoxAll Maddox's Links

    Coach Maddox, host of The Authentic Gay Man Podcast, reveals why so many gay men experience loneliness and isolation and the steps they can take, so they can create deep meaningful friendships that help them experience a profound sense of belonging and community. If you have ever felt like you were on the outside looking in, you’re not alone. It's a common theme among gay men. Maybe you are wondering what it means to be an Authentic Gay Man? Maddox engages his guests in honest and raw conversations, concerning topics that gay men rarely speak about. When we are able to get real with ourselves, it enables us to get real with others. That creates emotional intimacy…something we often fear and crave at the same time. Discover how to become more authentic and vulnerable, so you are magnetic to the people you engage with. Tune into each episode for a raw, candid, and uncensored exploration into the challenges of being an Authentic Gay Man. If you’re interested in gaining insights into your own challenges by hearing vulnerable stories of other gay men and if you aspire to be an Authentic Gay Man, this is the podcast for you.
