About this episode
Maybe you're having a hard time accepting a loved one who came out. Maybe you're the one who came out. Either way, the relationship feels stuck and you're both waiting for the other person to make it better. It's too easy for us to fall into a pattern of silence, thinking we will keep the relationship from getting worse. But here's good news. We don't have to resolve everything to stay connected. We don't even have to agree. Someone just has to go first. Each of us has more power than we think. Joe and Rya share why small gestures matter more than grand reconciliations, and why the next move is yours to make.
