Knowing … our queer identity

On this episode of Knowing Me, Knowing You, Trent begins a two-part series on what it means to truly know our queer identity. Trent chats with Christiano Greene, the CEO and Founder of Queer Quest, and together they chat about: Christiano’s lived experience and how it informs his current career as a transformation coach, The concept of our queer “spiritual identity”, The different ways we can remain authentic whilst showing up for others, The role of ‘people pleasing’ and perfectionism in informing our queer identity, How our own lived experiences inform our queer identity, Themes such as ‘shame’, ‘confidence’ and ‘self-worth’ and how they inform our queer identity, How the fear of being judged can impact our ability to seek out support, as well as The role and power of “normalised behaviour” Please keep in mind, the discussions, topics, and advice provided as part of this podcast are general in nature.
