Born a minister’s son in the Deep South, Finn grew up in a rigidly religious environment, struggling against the strong social conditioning and problematic relationship templates that queer men have inherited. At age 21, Finn became a trained minister, suppressing his sexuality and living a double life. His eroticism led him through self-deceit and, at last, to a breaking point — a new beginning — that defined his own search for personal truth. Once he left the ministry and stepped “out of the closet,” he painfully accepted that his journey toward wholeness was far from over. In fact, it had just begun. Now, Finn believes that within those wounds of rejection, fear, and self-loathing lies the medicine for our internal healing; that through our own pain, we will transform ourselves, our communities, and our cultures.

Finn is an AASECT certified sexuality counselor. Through his courses, workshops, retreats, and private sessions, men learn tools to confront their limitations, unravel shame, and spark deeper human connections — grounding themselves into a deeper experience of life.
