“About 4 years ago, I found out I had HSV2 - Genital Herpes.  This shook my world. I did not tell one single soul about it for 2 whole years, and in fact was living largely in denial during that period.  I still slept with women and never told them for fear that I would be alone forever. As time went on, this denial created a disconnect between myself and my body - I knew I was living out of alignment with my own values, and my body reacted in turn.  I started having difficulty achieving and maintaining an erection. At my core, my body was PREVENTING me from partaking in a behavior that was inauthentic and incongruent with who I really was. About two years ago, I revealed to a small group of people that I had herpes.  This then led to me disclosing to women ever since, and soon finding the love of my life. I have not had any trouble with erectile dysfunction since that day I shared my secret with others. My mission now is to assist others living in secret to own who they are unapologetically and without shame.  We are each beautiful souls - and having herpes does not diminish this.”
