Michael C Wearing: "I was desperate for love because I wanted someone to fix me" Finding safety and acceptance after coming out
TRIGGER WARNING: Homophobia, bullying, grief, addiction and loss.
Michael C Wearing is an Empowerment Coach and Speaker who supports people from the LGBTQ+ Community through his work. He empowers others to love themselves, build confidence and attract the life of happiness and fulfilment that they deserve. In addition to this he is the host of the 'Coming into who you are' podcast where people from the community share their lived experiences each week to inspire others.
Throughout the conversation, we discussed coming out, setting healthy boundaries, hitting rock bottom with addiction, navigating grief and dealing with loss.
