Ep. #197: Why Is 'Coming Out Late' An Inevitable Part of Our Stories? (replay)

September 12, 2025 • Robin Douglass • Season 3 • Episode 197

In this episode, Robin introduces a particular topic or theme or idea that she hopes will help us all think a little deeper, feel a little more awakened and possibly even inspire us to act a little differently as we navigate through this journey of life and of coming out.

In this episode you will consider the possibility of ‘impermanence’ and learn . . .

What is the meaning of ‘impermanence’, and why is it important?
How does ‘impermanence’ affect us: Emotionally? Socially? Intellectually? Mentally? Spiritually? Physically?
Does the knowledge of ‘impermanence’ affect our daily lives?
Does ‘impermanence’ impact our mindfulness and being present in the moment?
What are the benefits of accepting ‘impermanence’?
What can happen if we do not accept the idea of ‘impermanence’?
By embracing ‘impermanence’, we learn acceptance and that ‘change’ is inevitable.
How does the intersection of ‘impermanence’ and ‘comp-het’, ‘homophobia’, and deep-seeded denial play in our lives and how self-love, self-confidence and self-esteem can be the medicine!
