Description

Grant Miller shares his story of being diagnosed with HIV and AIDS in the early 80s, being told he had about 6 months to live.  As he talked about the negative stigma and rejection that went along with being HIV+, combined with a non-supportive family, his story brought tears to my eyes twice during our conversation.  He talks about a time when he really believed he had nothing to live for, yet there was the small quiet voice in him that guided him to keep going.  For anyone who has not walked in these shoes, this episode provides great insight into what so many men in our community have lived through.  This is how one very brave man overcame unbearable shame so he could stand proud and truly love himself.Grant has been an elementary school teacher for 29 years.Grant'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.
