27. Why a supportive family makes all the difference, with Surviving podcast host, David Keck
Manage episode 398646300 series 3550358
David's family told him these words: we cannot fully love you if we don't know all of you.
Talk about unconditional love.
Today's guest, David Keck (host of Surviving podcast), quite literally came out with the help of his family. Just as he was grappling with his religion and his sexuality, yet going through the motions of life (girlfriends, breakups, etc), his family sat him down and talked to him about the importance of accepting himself rather than trying to be someone he wasn't.
David also experienced a life-altering moment when he was the victim of a hate crime.
Significant moments, to say the least.
In this episode, we talk about how his relationship with God has been challenged over the years and how, from day one, his family helped him love and accept himself.
David reminds us of the importance of a strong foundation of family and friends or friends who are family.
