Choosing to live more authentically and "come out" of the proverbial closet as a member of the LGBTQ+ community can be a wonderful time in one's life. It may also prove to be a process that brings up uncomfortable feelings within oneself or from others. Keeping a secret this big can tax one’s mind and body over time and keeping a part of oneself hidden can get in the way of finding one’s tribe within this vast community. Grounded in over a decade of patient care within the LGBTQ+ community, this discussion will explore the complex Coming Out process, hold space for attendees’ experiences, educate on how to be a strong Ally, and aid in the development of Queer professionals & educators.
