What happens when the life you built no longer fits who you are? For ordained minister, grief counsellor, and coming out coach Anne-Marie, coming out at age 52 after a 27-year marriage and four children, was a complete spiritual and personal reorientation. Anne-Marie turned her own lived experience into a sanctuary for others, founding powerful peer-to-peer mentoring spaces like her \"Authentically Us\" community, her courses and workshops. If you are quietly questioning, navigating the \"messy middle\" of a late-in-life transition, or trying to untangle your faith from your truth, you do not have to walk this path alone. She fully supports people through the transition of their sexual identities. \"Anne-Marie is the perfect role model for anyone rewriting their narrative. She uses community as a medicine to life's heaviest challenges, acting as a vital mirror and mentor to get women through profound midlife changes.\" Stephanie,</p><p>WECAN Tune in for advice on how to navigate divorce, untangle internalised homophobia, and manage the varying reactions of children (from teenagers to adults).
