EPISODE SHOW NOTES

Episode 46: A Gay Man's Guide to Life featuring Britt East
Britt East didn’t know any other experience growing up but that of abuse and his family’s legacy of intergenerational trauma. Without a mentor or trusted teacher to guide him he spent his childhood alone, struggling to find his identity. Without structures in place to help him navigate his way as a gay man, he moved through th world void of a sense of self. For a while, he lived in a state of fury and took on the mindset of a fighter who needed to beat everything around him down. It wasn’t until he found himself in his first long-term relationship that Britt finally took off his mask and discovered his voice.
