Summary

Welcome to the first episode of Made It Out! We're going back to the beginning and looking at childhood and sexuality. Join Mal and Iris Walker as they dive into the heteronormative expectations put on us as children, the shame we are taught to feel about our sexuality growing up, and how it all impacts our ability to explore. Iris shares her struggles with defining her sexuality later in life, the stigmas put on the bisexual community, and how hard it is to date in your 30s when you're still unsure.
