Welcome to Cosmic Clowns, a podcast about exploring consciousness, surviving chaos, and finding the comedy in it all. In this episode, we explore the concept of coming out, not just in the context of sexual orientation but as a broader metaphor for revealing hidden aspects of our identities. We discuss the complexities of coming out, who defines the closet or coming out, how sometimes we can go back in the closet, and the shadow or shameful parts of self that end up in the closet. We also explore different types of closets, including artistic and spiritual closets. Join us as we explore how maybe everyone is in the closet about something.
