Queer Mid-life Stories

#8 - Ed Wilson

Matt Boyles Season 1 Episode 8

Ed is a brilliant life-changing coach for gay and queer men. We've been working together supporting each other's clients for a year now and he's become a friend.

He's VERY DIRECT but tbh most of the time, that's what's missing.

In this episode we discuss...

- The Jetski Test
- How he didn't know what life coaching was... Until he needed it
- How his first gay experience brought on deep shame
- The difference between therapy and coaching
- How and why he loves to help people and will be doing so as long as he lives

Amazing quotes from Ed:

"Cats?! They don't give a f*ck!"
"No one gets to 'done'. Focus on enjoying the movement and THAT'S actually 'done'"
"I am not my thoughts"
"Our gay adversities are an opportunity to become more free, more powerful and greater people"
