The Journey of Coming Out as An Adult, Overcoming Emotional Trauma & Building A Supportive Community

Coming out as an adult is difficult enough, but in the midst of processing emotional trauma, relocating, and going to school full time, that’s enough to overwhelm anyone. We talk with one of our very best friends, Meghan, about her newfound insights as a lesbian, coming out as a 26 year old, how she cultivated self love after coming to terms with her trauma, and how that brought her to the love of her life, Serena. Serena provides heart-on-her-sleeve inspiration for those growing up in a household of people who may not agree or understand your sexuality, and talks about how she knew Meghan was the one for her.
