Beyond Labels: Steven Branco on Queer Identity, Open Love, and Self-Discovery
Description
On this episode, Nicole sits down with friend and creator Steven Branco—serial entrepreneur, award-winning creative, and men’s lifestyle expert—to talk queer love, fluid relationships, and living authentically. Steven opens up about coming out after a young marriage, growing up in conservative faith spaces, navigating shame, and the freedom that comes with self-discovery. We dig into why labels can limit, how trust and communication make exploration possible, and the difference between making love and just having sex—plus real-world boundaries that keep open dynamics safe and respectful. We also touch on gender-fluid fashion, redefining masculinity, safer sex (hello PrEP), and why acceptance starts with learning to love yourself first.
