Queer awakenings 🌈, learning to be yourself 💞, and finding love after everything changes 💌 with Helena Moody

This week Rosie is joined by award-winning creator and comedian Helena Moody to talk about coming out later in life, unlearning who you thought you had to be, and what it really takes to choose yourself 🌈

They chat about Helena’s journey from being engaged and planning a future that didn’t quite feel right, to doing the internal work through therapy and realising she wasqueer. Helena opens up about the confusion of early crushes, growing up without representation, and how platforms like TikTok quietly helped her piece things together over time 💌

Rosie and Helena get into the emotional weight of coming out, including the guilt and fear of hurting others, to the relief that comes with finally accepting yourself. They reflect on how hard it is to trust your instincts, especially when you’ve spent years performing a version of yourself that never felt fully right 😵‍💫

They also dive into queer culture and community, from the chaos and excitement of your first queer night out to the lack of spaces specifically for sapphic women. Helena shares what it felt like to start again, navigating dating, attraction, and intimacy from a completely new perspective - and how it can feel like being a teenager all over again 💞
