Post Coming Out (part one).
Manage episode 434213779 series 3582739
Alan Cox is an internationally accredited Life Coach and certified CBT Practitioner working with gay men.
This episode came about from a type of revelation. Alan had already written about Coming Out and how life coaching can assist in it and had published two episodes on that subject.
But then he had a realisation. What happens next? What might be the implications for a gay man after he has come out? Will it be a positive or negative experience?
So he started researching this area and discovered that there is too much information to present in just one episode hence Post Coming Out (Part one).
This episodes investigates how a gay man might see an impact on the following areas once he has decided to leave the closet behind.
1. Family Reactions and Acceptance
2. Social Isolation and Loneliness
3. Discrimination and Prejudice
4. Self-Esteem and Self-Acceptance
5. Navigating New Social Norms and Communities.
Post Coming Out (part two) will cover the following areas:
6. Relationship Challenges
7. Mental Health Concerns
8. Career and Professional Challenges
9. Financial Stability
10. Long-Term Life Planning
And episodes 16 (and possibly 17) will round up this topic by looking at how Life Coaching can help gay men once they have come out.
