"The best thing is I am being true to myself and I am living my life authentically. I am finally being me!"

"The best thing is I am being true to myself and I am living my life authentically. I am finally being me!"

I began my journey with Mindvalley around 4-5 years ago, as I was deeply unhappy, which eventually turned into severe anxiety and depression. The course that had the biggest impact on my life was Uncompromised Life by Marisa Peer. After I completed her course, I sought out a Rapid Transformational Therapist, who helped me uncover the reason for my depression. 
I was gay!
But I was currently married to the woman I loved. Over the course of the next 12 months, I came out to my wife, as well as my family and friends. My wife and I separated, we sold our house, we closed our business that we ran together, and I moved from Australia to Singapore. Telling my wife that I was gay and going through a separation was the hardest thing that I've ever had to do. However, after 4 years of pain and suffering, I am finally happy again. I have a boyfriend who I love and adore, I live in an amazing city, I have a wonderful job, and I have made lots of new friends. The best thing is I am being true to myself and I am living my life authentically. I am finally being me!
