In this episode, Chris decides to take the podcast reins AND the microphone from Robin and asks her some “Who Is More Likely” questions, allowing Coming Out Late listeners to gain some new perspectives about Robin AND her relationship with Chris. They hope to keep it silly, yet informative, with a few deeper questions sprinkled in there too. No judgment! Robin hasn’t seen the questions ahead of time - so you’ll be hearing them in ‘real time’ when Robin does.

In this Part 2 REPLAY of the “Coming Out Late In A Hetero Marriage” episode, Robin jumps right back in with her first-ever conversation with husband David, and his wife and late bloomer, Monique, who are actually going through Monique’s Coming Out Late process in real-time, and SHARING their experiences with us! There’s LOTS to absorb, take-in and learn!

• “Kroger Parking Lot Therapy”, and having those REAL HARD conversations and asking one another the big scary questions, and discussing the really big issues.
• What does David mean by, “...the grass is greener where you water it…”
• Discussing the “pie-chart” of an entire relationship, and which parts are in need of attention.
• Looking at our pasts and getting real and getting honest with one another. Doing our shadow-work - together.
• Women dealing with sexual obligation to please their husbands.
• The Key to Relationship Progress? Communication! Communication! Communication!
• Before throwing the baby out with the bathwater, try problem-solving through creative experimentation and mutually agreed-upon creative solutions.
• Is your marriage worth working on? Are you willing to go to any-length to “save” your marriage, AND, work together on incorporating “her” newfound queer sexuality?
• David & Monique answer Robin’s questions: (1) What has been the hardest part, (so far), in Monique’s Coming Out Late process? (2) What’s been the scariest part of Monique’s Coming Out Late process, so far, for each of you?
• Monique and David also answer: (1) What advice would you give to your younger self, knowing what you know now? And, (2) What advice would you give to others on the brink of a similar path?

Thirty-three years ago, 16-year old David, the new kid in high school, bravely squished his way through a wall of Monique’s cliquey of high school friends, (congregated around her locker in the hallway), and asked a mutual friend to introduce him to Monique - in front of everyone. That brave move earned David the intrigue and attention of Monique; AND earned David the honor of walking with her to their next class together. It also earned them both the distinct pleasure of nearly three decades of marriage, built on a deep, deep bond of friendship, love and mutual respect. Their lives together were not immune to the typical stressors of married life - but nothing could have prepared either of them for the curveball that life would throw at them in 2019, and the years that followed..

In this Part 1 REPLAY of “Coming Out Late In A Hetero Marriage”, you will learn …

• The importance of gay-representation in our upbringings - no matter the level of affluence we grew up with.
• We learn how Monique & David’s lifelong friendship and soulful connection were the building blocks of their thirty-plus year relationship. But is their solid foundation of love and alignment enough to sustain their marriage through Monique’s Coming Out Late journey?
• Learn about the depth and breadth of research that Monique and her husband David have done, and continue to do, (both individually AND together), in order to learn as much as they can about how other couples navigate ‘Mixed Orientation Marriages'.
• Learn the unique ways in which Monique & David are blazing their own path when it comes to reinventing their sexual intimacy and desires.
