Description

My guests, Brian Janes and Brian George recount their lives as closeted gay men.  They both knew they were gay at an early age, but completely repressed that knowledge for several decades, both coming out in their early 50s.  Ironically, each of them were married with two children.  Their stories are somewhat similar in some ways and then very different in other ways.  This definitely allows you, the listener, to see this from more than one perspective.  The powerful impact of this episode is illuminating the profound costs that come along with long term repression of who you really are.  If you or someone you know is struggling with the decision to come out and embrace who you truly are, this bonus episode is for you.  Please share this with someone that may be struggling.Brian Janes' ProfileBrian George's Profile Be a GuestFollow on FacebookMaddox's LinksMailing List SignupRate & Review

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.
