Some of the deepest challenges we face as gay men, is letting go of shame around virtually everything we do. From sex and relationships, to body image and the overt need to prove ourselves in our careers. Today, along with my guest, Brandon Simpson, we cover a wide variety of topics to help you bring more joy into your life as a gay or bisexual man without letting today’s world, steal your confidence to be you. This week, we’re breaking down:

• Shame: How to release the weight of societal judgments and embrace your authentic self.
• Boundaries: Why setting them is self-care, not selfish.
• The Tech Effect: How apps and screens have changed the way we connect—and how to find real intimacy in a digital age.
• The Bright Side of Sex & Porn: Let’s talk about pleasure, exploration, and how to embrace the positive role they can play in our lives.

Through this honest conversations we hope you find wayst to build confidence, foster connection, and live unapologetically in the world.
