Lesbi-Honest: Candid Convos With Later-in-Life Lesbians

Coming out later in life is its own particular journey, and Sarah St. John created Lesbi-Honest specifically to give that experience a platform. Every episode features a conversation with a woman who discovered or accepted her queer identity after the age of 30, and the stories range from quietly powerful to completely gut-wrenching. Themes include religious trauma, compulsory heterosexuality, family fallout, cognitive dissonance, and the complicated relief of finally living honestly. The format is straightforward -- Sarah sits down with one guest per episode and lets them tell their story with minimal interruption. That simplicity is the show's greatest strength. These aren't rehearsed narratives; they're real women processing real experiences, sometimes for the first time on record. Recent episodes have covered internalized homophobia and the specific challenges of dismantling a life built on expectations that never fit. Episodes run about 30 to 45 minutes. The show has earned a perfect 5.0-star rating from 30 reviews on Apple Podcasts, which is notable even for a smaller show -- it means the audience that finds it connects deeply. The most recent episode aired in October 2024, with about 15 episodes in the archive. If you came out after 30, or if you're still figuring things out, hearing from women who walked that road before you is genuinely valuable. Lesbi-Honest fills a specific need that broader queer podcasts often overlook, and it does so with compassion and honesty.
