COLORADO, USA — Jill Cain, a heart patient and proud member of the LGBTQ community, is at a point in her life where she wears her uniqueness as a badge of honor. But that wasn’t always the case.
While Jill didn’t officially come out until she was 26, she always knew she was different from everyone else. It wasn’t until she began therapy that she learned how to live her life authentically and find her own way to happiness.
She recently sat down with 9NEWS and Unpacking Perfect to share her story of mental wellness.
