@donutatx @JebraFaushay At OurPath, we continue to see the harmful effects on families from non consensual Mixed Orientation Marriages (where one partner has not disclosed a sexual orientation or gender identity). We are here to provide support to straight spouses post disclosure or discovery.

@Docstockk @Vaishax @limesodafilms OurPath is pleased to have the OurVoices Podcast interview with @BlanchardPhD featured in the documentary.

Currently watching powerful film by @Vaishax @limesodafilms, letting wives & children of trans-identified men speak for themselves. Recommended for every simpleminded soul sold on idea of brave and stunning transition without thought of effects on others youtube.com/watch?v=Frffv2…

In today's episode with @rayalexwilliams, we ask the question: what do the wives of husbands who identify as trans need to know in order to make decisions for their own lives, and try to find honest answers. bit.ly/OPOVs7ep7

How is it different when a spouse comes out as LGBT from when a child comes out LGBT? Christine shares her story of reconciling differing, even conflicting feelings when her husband came out as gay, and her child came out as trans. bit.ly/OPOVs7ep6

We are proud of Kristin and the OurVoices Podcast. We are telling the important and compelling stories of mixed orientation marriage and straight spouses that are too often overlooked as part of the coming out process.

It is not uncommon for closeted gay men married to women to tell their wives the reason they don’t want intimacy is because they are too fat. Here’s one of those stories: bit.ly/OPOVs7ep3

Guest and author @Annwriter shares her story of loss and healing after her husband’s decades long struggle with his gender identity and suicide. Her story is nuanced, complicated, and defies expectations from every angle. bit.ly/OPOVs7ep2

Today we talk with @michellemays_ about the impact of sexual betrayal on betrayed partners, the four types of gaslighting and their effects, how shame operates in both partners in the relationships, and how to heal from shame this is not ours. bit.ly/OPOVs6ep13

In this illuminative conversation with Professor Everette Worthington, we learn the science and research behind forgiveness - what it is, how to do it, and why it matters for our health and wellbeing. bit.ly/OPOVs6ep11

@michaelslepian is an expert on the psychology of secrets. We talk about how secrets impact both the secret keeper and those that secrets are kept from, and if it’s ethical to keep a secret from a spouse who has a stake in knowing the truth. bit.ly/OPOVs6ep10

@HRC Talking to straight partners to discover what helps and what hurts in the disclosure/ discovery process would go a long way to ensure that families can heal more quickly and thoroughly.
