Alabama dad of five JW came out to his ex-wife in 2019, after 12 years of marriage.
"I came home one day and said I needed to have a conversation with her, " he explained. "[It was] probably one of the most difficult things I had ever done."
JW comes from a large close-knit religious southern family. Having been raised Christian in a small town, he said he struggled with the conflicts within himself.
"When I turned 35, I woke up one day and had this realization that my life was going by," he explained. "I wasn't being fair to myself, or to her."
In honor of National Coming Out day this past Monday, hear JW tell his coming out story and his advice for others.
