Brad said he just never really felt that he could relate to the people around him because of who he was.

After finishing his education, Brad did what many young people do and traveled.

He wanted to see the world, experience new places, meet new people.

And that's exactly what he did.

Has that become stronger for you since what happened?

Brad's determination and outgoingness would also extend into his chosen career path as he knew from a very young age exactly what he wanted to do.

Brad would get his big break, his opportunity to work on a breakfast radio show.

But before he would get to start his new career, he would experience a truly life-altering event.

Chapter two, sliding doors.

Sorry to interrupt, but had you ever done anything sort of like bungee jumping or anything like that before?

Because you're not scared of heights or anything like that, obviously.

You're an adventurous guy.

So this is just another one of those things to tick off your bucket list, so to speak.

Life essentially could not have been any better for Brad at this moment.

As he says, he literally was on the cusp of finally starting that career that he's always wanted.

He had come out and no longer had to hide who he was from the world.

And he even had a new love in his life.

This jump was just another exciting memory to add to his life.

And in fact, he wanted to share it with his family.

And that day, they were all there to support him.
