Podcasts about Coming out

This week we return to one of our most beloved conversations from the archives, my talk with Dr. Mallory Hanfling, a fellow later in life queer woman, therapist, and the creator of the term Firefly. Mallory shares her story with such honesty. She married a kind man, built a genuine friendship with him, and still felt that something was quietly wrong. Like so many of us, she searched everywhere for an answer. Individual therapy, couples therapy, sex therapy, endless blood work, and doctors who offered birth control and even exploratory surgery. She was looking for a physiological explanation for a truth her spirit already knew. She is queer. Together we explore why the question "have you ever considered your sexuality" is so rarely asked, how compulsory heterosexuality teaches us to dismiss our own knowing, and why women are socialized to carry discomfort quietly rather than speak up for their own pleasure and peace. We also talk about opening a marriage as a bargaining stage of grief, what actually happens when a third person is brought into a struggling relationship, and the moment Mallory chose to end her marriage with love rather than let it end in heartbreak. And of course, we talk about fireflies. Mallory coined the term as a gender and sexuality expansive alternative to late bloomer language. Fireflies spend most of their lives underground, and when they finally emerge as their most authentic selves, they glow and bring joy to others. You do not need to have all the labels figured out to belong. If you are somewhere in the metamorphosis, this conversation is for you. Dr. Mallory Hanfling is a therapist in Philadelphia, licensed in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, and Indiana. Her practice, Courage to Grow Counseling, serves the queer community with a focus on identity development, coming out, and connecting with one's most authentic self. Her doctoral research explores how community mitigates the impact of compulsory heterosexuality on the Firefly identity. Mallory's resources

Lizzie Eastham and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look through a different lens. On this week’s show “Coming Out” When do you admit you have a disability, if at all? Whether it be applying for a job, meeting new people or dealing with someone behind a counter. Sometimes we need to admit there is a reason we’re looking at something closer or not at all. Simon talks about disclosing you have a Disability when applying for work; Stephen K looks at the times when tripping over something forces the point; Emma gives us a more relaxed view on Disability; Lilli talks about the need to pick your person; Stevie E talks about the complexities of admitting you have Autism; while Heidi and Sarnya talk about how these issues lesson when you get older; while Shaun finishes things off with a dose or reality. You may also be interested in joining our choir of angels and telling your story.

What if the single biggest factor in whether we come out, when we come out, and how we heal along the way is the community around us? Dr. Mallory Hanfling returns to the show, this time with research in hand. Mallory recently completed her PhD in human sexuality, and her dissertation explored how community mitigates the impact of compulsory heterosexuality on the Firefly experience, the journey of those who discover something new about their sexuality or gender after committing to a relationship that appeared straight from the outside.Mallory shares why she coined the term Firefly, what her 21 participants taught her about the systems that keep us underground, and why the people we surround ourselves with shape everything about this journey. We talk about grief, religious communities, workplace culture, family planning, neurodivergence, and how to choose online spaces that truly support us.

In this Episode, Kelly is joined by writer Gabriel Rotello! He is the author of two books: Sexual Ecology: AIDS and the Destiny of Gay Men and The CBGB Conspiracy. He became the first openly gay op-ed columnist for a major American newspaper and is the founder of Out Week Magazine. He has also written, directed, and produced dozens of TV documentaries for major networks like HBO, Netflix, and the History Channel. Gabriel talks about growing up in Danbury, Connecticut, and traveling into the city with his older brother when he was 13! Even at that age, he knew he wanted to move to New York when he grew up. Kelly asks him what life was like in New York in the 1970s. Gabriel talks about how Manhattan was a playground for young adults in their early 20s. He tells us how cheap his rent was, describes the decay of the Bowery in great detail, and talks about how wonderful it was to play music at CBGB.  Kelly asks Gabriel about CBGB. Gabriel tells us that in the beginning, no one wanted to go there. He describes the "Bowery Bums", the mismanagement of the venue, and its terrible location. He then talks about how it became one of the most famous punk venues in the world.  Gabriel talks a bit about his book: The CBGB Conspiracy. He tells Kelly that he actually did not want to write a book about his time in the 70s at first. With the aids epidemic looming over it, he thought it too depressing. But when inspiration struck, while walking along the street one day, he came up with the idea of creating a murder mystery, with CBGB as the background and weaving in famous people of the era, along with his personal experiences. Kelly asks Gabriel a bit about the process of writing, and Gabriel talks about how he was inspired by a past guest of our show, Jonathan Mahler! He talks about reading Ladies and Gentlemen, The Bronx Is Burning... and being transported back into that time in his life.  Kelly then asks Gabriel what gay life was like back in the day. Gabriel describes the streets of the West Village being filled with shirtless gay men dancing and having the best time on a random Tuesday night. He talks about how there was a feud between the East Village gay community and the West Village gay community. He talks about their differences, what it was like to have one foot in both, and he reflects on how his perception has changed since then.   Gabriel then talks a bit about his partner Hap, who passed during the Aids Epidemic. Gabriel had met Hap when he was studying abroad and just happened to run into each other when he moved to New York. Gabriel talked about how Hap showed him the ropes as a newly out man. He talks about how they dated until Hap's passing. Kelly talks about marching on Washington in support of the movement. Gabriel talks about how it inspired him to start Out Week Magazine, and how he invited outing! But above all else; Gabriel Rotello is a New Yorker!

It is the second Friday of the month, which means Anne-Marie is joined by dating coach Barbara Rowlandson and Nashville photographer Tonda McKay, to talk all things sapphic dating and relationships. This month the trio takes on four real questions from women navigating the queer dating world. How do you slow down when every connection turns intense within weeks? Are you a jerk for losing interest when someone shows up looking nothing like their photos? What do you do when you want more intimacy than your partner does? And how do you recover when a promising connection ends after six lovely dates?Along the way, Barb teaches the WIN language formula for hard conversations, Tonda shares her hard-won wisdom on representatives, resentment, and why community will pick you up when heartbreak knocks you down, and Anne-Marie reminds us that bed death is not a lesbian thing, it is a long-term relationship thing. Expect honest talk, big laughs, and one unforgettable New Year's Eve story from the Lipstick Lounge.If you are questioning your sexuality or reconsidering who you are, you do not have to figure it out alone. Join Anne-Marie and Barb for the Three Day Clarity Experience, July 21 to 23, a safe and supportive space to explore your questions alongside women who understand. Our last event welcomed 54 women and many called it life changing. Save your seat at https://annemariezanzal.com/3-day-clarity-experience/New episodes of Coming Out and Beyond drop weekly.

First up, we have Rev. Anne-Marie Zanzal (@annemariezanzalcoaching), a LGBTQIA+ coach specializing in helping women who are questioning their sexualities and going through the journey of coming out. Anne-Marie also runs the “Authentically Us Community” for late-in-life lesbians alongside hosting the Coming Out & Beyond Podcast. Next, we are joined by Anna Empey (@anna.empey), a business development consultant and LGBTQ+ coach with 14+ years of experience.  Together in collaboration with lesbian psychologist, Dr. Robin Sesan, Anne-Marie and Anna have created the Healthy Lesbian Relationships course, a lifetime access course that provides pre-recorded video lessons, journaling prompts, a workbook with lesson-specific exercises, and a private online community of lesbian couples to connect with. Whether you are a late-in-life lesbian or a right-on-time lesbian, the Healthy Lesbian Relationships course can help you and your partner to build patterns of positive interaction for lasting intimacy, better understand one another's communication and attachment styles, manage emotional triggers, and master the art of the “do-over” conversation.  We've talked a lot this season about lesbian marriage, and although we pride ourselves in being experts, we thought maybe it was time to bring on some actual, legitimate experts. We chat with Anne-Marie and Anna about the unique challenges that lesbian couples face, that annoying divorce rate statistic that the straights always use against us, the pathologization of “lesbian bed death”, and the casual intimacy of coming home to clean dishes.  If you are questioning your sexuality, the free “Maybe I'm Not Straight” guide is the perfect place to begin your journey. If you're already in a sapphic relationship and looking to make it even better, check out the free guide, “Tips for Strengthening Your Lesbian Relationship”.  Don't forget to show your support for our tiny (and mighty!) podcasting team by shopping small this summer at bit.ly/lezmerch & picking up our original Lez-ssentials songs on Bandcamp.  Give us your own answers to our Q & Gay on Instagram and follow along on Facebook, TikTok, YouTube and BlueSky @lezhangoutpod.

This week, Reverend Ken Daigle explores the personal and spiritual significance of Pride as an antidote to shame. He shares his own journey of realizing his identity, starting from an encounter with a Life magazine article when he was 11 years old, and emphasizes 4 key takeaways: The Cost of Hiding, Coming Out as a Journey, Divine Inheritance, and The Power of Community. This talk was recorded live at Unity San Francisco on June 28th, 2026.

This week Mrs. Pearlmania does a deep dive into the contradiction of the life and career of Ellen Degeneres. A LGBTQ icon who had the courage to speak and come out much earlier than most. She also used her platform to advocate for visibility and many LGBTQ advocacy projects. However there is a dark side that includes countless bullying accusations, and a close friendship with a war criminal. JOIN OUR PATREON COMMUNITY -

Send us Fan MailI've recently been consuming episodes of the popular TV show "Heated Rivalry" which has taken the world by storm.  I've watched and re-watched all six episodes, listened to podcasts about the show and I've consumed many, many podcasts where people have reviewed the show, commented (and cried and cheered) in real time.  The tenderness, realness and flat-out courage of the characters portrayed in these gay love stories has opened the floodgates of my tears many times.Years ago, when I lived in Seattle, I told myself that someday I wanted to be "fully me" and to not be compartmentalized with different people regarding who I am and my current truth.  I came out as gay in late 1999.  Because of my former background in the Christian church, I found myself in the position of not being my true self in multiple scenarios in my life- notably in my relationships in my family and with folks who knew me in my "former church life". Many of these people thought they knew me and what I believed in leaving the church- even though the majority of what they came up with was far, far from my truth.  They choose to live in their own worlds and belief systems, extrapolating their own beliefs and their own truth onto me and my experience.I've been thinking about doing a podcast like this for quite awhile now.  Watching "Heated Rivalry" and observing the various fictional characters grow and evolve has given me the extra push I needed to do this podcast. A podcast that in some ways, is my own "second coming out" in sharing my own truth at this point in my life.My hope is that by my sharing this, others will also now be able to speak their truth and to "Pay It Forward" to many others who are desperate to hear their truth.Thanks for listening.  Be sure to subscribe, "like" and leave a comment and share your own thoughts and experiences!Contact Wilkinson at: BecomingWilkinson@gmail.com

And from inside that grief, she shares what came to her: Love Is All. The love does not go. The separation is real, but love overcomes it.This is the conversation that launched a community.

Endlich wieder WM! 1.248 Fußballer kämpfen in Nordamerika um den Pokal… keiner davon lebt offen schwul. Wie kann das sein? In dieser Folge extra 3 Takeover erklärt Sportmoderatorin Lena Cassel, warum ein Coming-Out für schwule Fußballer auch 2026 noch schwierig ist. (Obwohl sich selbst der FIFA-Präsident ab und zu gay fühlt.) Wir zeigen, warum trotz Pride-Flaggen im Stadion oft ein toxisches Umfeld mit Dusch-Angst herrscht. Wie eine laute Minderheit den Ton auf den Tribünen setzt. Und warum bei den Frauen mal wieder vieles besser ist. Das ist extra 3 Takeover: Ein wichtiges Thema und ein passender Host mit den besten Witzen dazu.

Have you ever heard "planned neglect" anywhere else but Organize 365? Probably not because it's a term I coined to describe what I do to more effectively manage my responsibilities and time. One can't do everything so you must determine what is the highest value you provide to your work, community, or family and implement planned neglect for a certain amount of time to manage it all. I Must Have Mentioned "Planned Neglect" Before I was fairly shocked when I asked AI to give me some feedback based on a few episodes I shared. It explained the "framework" I have put in place. Ha! Much to my surprise because I hadn't realized I offered a framework. I must have talked about it a few times on the podcast. But it wasn't wrong. You need to identify the timeline when you will be using this planned neglect.  Then you should tell your family so they know what's happening when you start to cut corners to free up time for you to better utilize your highest value in this phase of life. Then you need to extend a lot of grace to yourself. It's ok that you have lowered your standards. It doesn't have to be forever just while something else needs more of you.  Then you need to implement these temporary habits.  And understand that this particular shortcut you have used in the past may not help you the same as it has in the past. You may need to figure out a different way to make life easier for a certain amount of time.  So back in the day when the dinosaurs were still roaming around, I identified planned neglect.  I needed a little more time to work on my direct sales business. I thought about what could I neglect to give my attention to focus on my business? So I started with a nanny for 10 hours one day a week.  Once my business grew even more I hired an assistant to help just 5 hours a week.  Then there was the time I realized I was driving 25 hours a week. It was time to outsource laundry. It was beautiful for a while when I would drop off my laundry and pick it up folded and hung. And I have shared a few phases of life when paper plates became the china of choice in the Woodruff household.  Coming Out of "Planned Neglect" Now that the PhD is coming to an end I have really wrestled with what I want to do with that time.  I acknowledge that I will go back to cleaning my house and maintaining my own window boxes. I have really been thinking about the planned neglect I have practiced and it's time to reverse some of those habits. It dawned on me that while I am back to using real plates for lunch and dinner, I will continue to use paper plates and bowls of different sizes for breakfast. Also, I hadn't realized pursuing the PhD meant my health and body would suffer. I hadn't put any thought into my nutrition and I certainly wasn't moving as much as a person should. So now that I am coming out of planned neglect I have started to use some of that time to go to the gym. And I have decided I no longer want to spend that money on the Tovala meals. It was worth the money when I didn't have time to grocery shop or meal prep. But now, I have time to focus on my nutrition so I am not ordering Tovala meals. Who knows, I may utilize them again in a season I need to.  As I come out of planned neglect I am going to take back my body and health. I will also be giving time back to working on Organize 365®. You have already seen a little bit of this as I have eliminated the work products. I am launching my new book "Escaping Quicksand" and will likely write more books. And I am getting ready to focus on The Productive Home CEO and new terminology to go with it being the Household CEO. I also want to explore how to use this new authority in academia to benefit household managers and their systems.  And at home I will be filling in all the blanks in my information management binders from The Paper Solution® and taking one day a month to focus on my CEO position in the Woodruff house.  Planned neglect is simply looking at your tasks, deciding how you can lower your standards of that task and then implementing a new habit for a certain amount of time. Mine was the PhD recently, what is yours? EPISODE RESOURCES: The Sunday Basket® The Paper Solution® Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter 

Some words and experiences come with a lot of baggage, conjuring up fear, stigma, and shame.But being afraid or ashamed doesn't protect us from those experiences or those words. It just keeps us from really understanding them or being able to talk about them. And what we can't process for ourselves, we can't help those we love and lead with either.In the clinical space, dissociation is one of those words and experiences that is met with a lot of discomfort. How people were taught and trained to address dissociation often perpetuates shame and stigma, and its pop culture depictions and usage haven't helped either.But my guest today has spent her career making the case that dissociation isn't rare, or even necessarily pathological; it's actually a common and deeply human experience that ranges from everyday zoning out to more complex presentations that do need support. And as you'll hear, Dr. Jamie Marich believes understanding this spectrum isn't just a matter of clinical education, but is vital for our own self-knowledge and how we lead others.Dr. Jamie Marich, PhD, LPCC-S, REAT (she/they) began her career as a humanitarian aid worker in Bosnia-Herzegovina from 2000-2003, primarily teaching English and music. Jamie travels internationally teaching on topics related to trauma, EMDR therapy, expressive arts, mindfulness, and yoga, while maintaining a private practice and online education operations in her home base of Akron, OH. Marich is the founder of the Institute for Creative Mindfulness and the developer of the Dancing Mindfulness approach to expressive arts therapy, and the author of several books on EMDR, dissociation, mindfulness, recovery, and more.
