Coming Out, Personal Journals, Religion & Spirituality, Sexuality

This week on @theopentable, we’re bringing you an episode that is both profoundly serious and surprisingly invigorating. Host @craigmbrown sits down for an in-depth, candid, and often fun chat with Dr. @lukeslamdunkwilson.

Dr. Wilson joins us to share his personal journey through faith, his experiences with Christianity, and the deeply challenging world of conversion therapy. This conversation goes beyond the headlines, offering a raw and intelligent look at how these complex dynamics have shaped his life and his incredible work.

Dr. Lucas Wilson is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Toronto, and a leading voice in the critical examination of practices intended to change a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity. He is the editor of the important and timely book, ‘Shame-Sex Attraction.’

In this episode, Lucas doesn’t just discuss his research; he opens up about his own story.
