About this listen
From growing up in a small farm town to working with Wall Street’s elite, Cory Calvin’s candid memoir recounts a life of struggle and success and the moment he came to realize his true dreams were still hidden beneath the surface.
Cory Calvin is a successful New York City corporate executive-turned-entrepreneur. His story reveals a difficult childhood as a closeted teen with a stern father, school bullies, and a strict religious upbringing in a rural town. But Cory’s story is more than his struggle - it is a story of self-discovery, self-acceptance, and success.
For Cory, leaving behind his small town and climbing the corporate ladder was empowering, until he realized that there are many more closets in this world.
With each success, Cory always felt that he was so close to being who he should have been. That he had almost become himself. Until, one day, Cory found the courage to leave it all behind and traveled solo around the world, discovering his true self along the way and redefining his dreams.
Through I Almost Became Me, Cory shares stories that range from humorous to tearful to inspiring. From hearing his father tell him he is going to hell to meeting his boyfriend through an online ad to feeling stuck achieving a dream he envisioned as he hid his true self, Cory’s experience will speak to many in the LGBTQ+ community who have yet to realize their own dreams beyond a series of closets.
For anyone who has had to hide to survive and endure abusive relationships, this audiobook offers an uplifting message, a healing touch, and the key to self-realization.
