In this transformative episode, identity coach and speaker Don Mamone (they/them/theirs) shares their powerful journey beyond society's gender binary. From navigating privilege to embracing radical freedom, Don reveals the profound costs and unexpected rewards of choosing authenticity over conformity.

Don challenges us to examine how binary thinking limits not just gender expression but every aspect of our lives. They illuminate the path from fear to liberation through their experience of coming out at 45 and building a life of unapologetic self-expression in Texas (USA).

Key Discussion Points:

• Understanding gender identity, expression, and the limitations of binary thinking
• Navigating the journey from conformity to freedom
• Creating safe spaces in a heteronormative world
• The real cost of authenticity and the rewards of living truthfully
• Breaking cycles of performative behaviour through deliberate practice

Whether you're questioning your identity, seeking to be a better ally, or looking to break free from society's boxes, Don's story offers profound insights into embracing your truth and creating positive change.
