My Coming Out: Jackie Warner
October 11, 2006
Jackie Warner is the owner-extraordinaire of Sky Sport and Spa, as well as the star of Bravo's hit series, "Work Out." Her coming out story is an excerpt from a longer interview she just finished with OUTzone's Andy Cohen. You can read the entire interview here.
I came out at 21 when I had a serious girlfriend for first time and I was in love. I was not living with my parents. People ask me when to come out and I say that you should come out when you are in a safe environment, when you're not reliant on a parent who may reject you.
I came out when I was financially separated from my family and in love. The worst thing there is being thrown out of your home or sent to a clinic or something. I know if I had come out in high school my parents would have taken me to a clinic and had me shocked or something. I would've gone through even more trauma -- it's traumatic enough to come out. Do it when you feel safe.

Before that.....I had been working out since I was 30 and loving it. Never thought that I be in a place where I could not get myself up to workout. I loved it so much for about twenty years.
