Author Melissa Giberson was a suburban housewife and mother of two who always felt something was missing in her life but couldn’t define what that missing piece was. Her catalyst relationship experience caused her to stop and have a head-spinning revelation that she never expected – that she was, in fact, a lesbian. Melissa’s incredible journey forced her to consider how much she was willing to risk for authenticity.
On this episode of Coming Out & Beyond: LGBTQIA+ Stories, Melissa talks with host Anne-Marie Zanzal about the revelation that dramatically changed her life, her journey of coming out to herself and others, her relationship with faith, and where’s she’s at today.
