Ep. 348: Hypnotist Ray Aubel on Healing Gay Childhood Wounds, Past Lives & the Masks We Wear

31 Oct 202654 min

What happens when you finally put down the weight you’ve been carrying since you were five years old?

Ray Aubel is a hypnotist and coach who works mostly with gay men on the patterns that form from growing up hidden: the masks, the performing, the feeling of being different before you even had a word for it. Zach and Ray get into how hypnosis actually works, why Ray went from atheist to believer after visiting two of his own past lives, and what he’s seeing in clients right now as political news stirs up old fears.

They also talk about the growing divide between cis gay men and the trans community, the “I have a gay friend” brand of performative allyship, why straight men are afraid to admit another guy looks good, and the surprising number of listeners tuning in from countries where being gay is illegal.
