052: Taking the walk of faith to leave your faith - Brian Gilbert

052: Taking the walk of faith to leave your faith - Brian Gilbert

Faith. It's something that guides us, gives us cause to take risks, and sometimes gets in the way of us being able to be who we are meant to be. Faith in ourselves, faith in the path, faith in our destiny. Especially when you realize that in order to come out of the closet, you need faith in all of those things and it might even mean coming to terms with your faith in a whole new way.Former client and friend of mine, Brian Gilbert, shares how he navigated a crisis of faith to fully step into living his most authentic truth - being a gay man. A truth late bloomer, a father, husband, and grandfather, Brian has come into his own in his mid-50's as well as into his new faith.About BrianBrian Gilbert is a father of 4 adult children and a grandfather of a beautiful 18-month-old granddaughter. A native of New Mexico, he practices cosmetic and implant dentistry in the city of Las Cruces in the southern part of the state. Along with his duties as father, grandfather, and dentist, he enjoys reading, hiking, travel, music, and going to the gym.You can also listen to the podcast on… Hey Guys, Check This Out!Are you a guy who keeps struggling to do that thing?
