b'Let\\u2019s explore what it\\u2019s like to be LGBTQ and in a same-sex relationship while living a diplomatic life.\\n\\nIn this episode, I have a fantastic and far-ranging chat with my friend, Kevin Huntting. Kevin wrote \\u2018On being gay and living a diplomatic life\\u2019 which was published on my blog in November 2019. The post has been widely read around the globe and has received some great feedback. We explore the issues raised in his blog about coming out and being vulnerable, how he\\u2019s experienced loneliness and lack of a career and how LGBTQ diplomats and their families can be supported. \\n\\nAbout Kevin:\\n\\nKevin Huntting resides in Miami with his husband who is a member of Mexico\\u2019s Foreign Service. He and his husband met in San Francisco in 2006, and have had posts in Dallas, Mexico City, and Washington DC. Kevin began his career with General Electric and has spent 12 years working in various marketing areas like Customer Relationship Management (CRM), E-commerce, and Digital Marketing for Fortune 500 brands like GE, Gap Inc., Fossil Group, and the Inter-American Development Bank in Washington, DC. \\n \\nIt was through these various life transitions that Kevin recognized there was little information focused on the needs of the global LGBTQ diplomatic and expat community. In 2016, he launched The Proud Diplomat (www.theprouddiplomat.com) a website, and social media channels dedicated to sharing the authentic stories of the LGBTQ expat community as well as insightful information impacting this community. He is currently pursuing his certification as a Professional/Personal Coach through the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC). \\n \\nLinks:\\n\\nWebsite: www.thelonelydiplomat.com \\nBlog post: \\u2018On being gay and living a diplomatic life\\u2019: https://bit.ly/354zE64 \\nCoaching, seminars and other services: www.thelonelydiplomat.com/services\\nFriends of The Lonely Diplomat: www.thelonelydiplomat.com/friends \\nPlease, support my work: www.thelonelydiplomat.com/support \\nStay connected with me and my work: www.thelonelydiplomat.com/subscribe \\nContact me: admin@thelonelydiplomat.com \\nContact Kevin: info@theprouddiplomat.com'
