In this episode of GoodEnoughChats – a men’s mental health podcast on a mission to destigmatise these issues, one chat at a time – filmmaker Harry Richards shares his journey of coming out as a gay man after years of hiding that part of himself.
He talks about the weight of secrecy, the fear of rejection, and the slow, sometimes painful process of learning to tell the truth—even to himself.
Harry reflects on how his mental health was shaped by living in the closet, how the pandemic gave him space to reckon with his identity, and how coming out—while incredibly difficult—transformed his relationships, his work, and his sense of self.
We also talk about vulnerability, empathy, and the power of creating art that opens up hard but necessary conversations.
