About this episode

Jeremy Pierson discusses his journey from self-rejection to self-devotion after coming out and embracing his true identity.

Jeremy Pierson shares the miraculous transformation he experienced when he came out of the closet and chose to fully accept - rather than reject who he believed himself to be. He reveals how the layered stories he created, carried, and hid behind led him on a paradoxical journey of pain and pleasure, as he juggled life as an ordained minister and ballroom dance teacher while secretly battling addiction, identity conflict, and spiritual experiences he didn’t yet understand. Jeremy talks about how he discovered why our past isn’t defined by what happens to us, but by the meaning we give it - and that true freedom comes from having the courage to stand up and be who you really are. Today, he supports others to do what he once believed he couldn’t do - drawing on the gifts he cultivated through devotion to himself and being in service to others.
