Becoming Wilkinson
When I started this podcast, I thought it would be the story of my journey from married man with three sons, involved in ministry in the NW, to my current life as a gay man in Palm Springs, CA. I'd weave in interesting interviews with amazing people whom I've met along the way. But as the podcast has evolved, I realized that interacting and hearing other people's stories has changed me. The Universe always sends me just the right person at just the right time to guide me along my own journey of "Becoming". Join me as I have conversations with these fascinating people and share this journey with you.
Becoming Wilkinson
I've never met anyone quite like my wild and crazy Iranian friend, Ideene Dehdashti. We met several years ago via a couchsurfing experience in Seattle. She's a world traveler, a comedian, a fitness model, an actor, and so much more!
While living in Seattle, I became a couchsurfing super host.
Over a few years, I hosted over 650 (primarily International) travelers in my home. Lifelong friendships were formed with many of these folks, and not a few have subsequently visited me here at my place in Palm Springs.
Ideene Dehdashti and her former boyfriend James are two such people. She and I chatted on one of her recent visits. This is one of my most light-hearted episodes, and we had fun recording it.
