Did your heart just beat a little faster? 💛
Then you're in the right place.
We know how it goes. The aunties asking when you're getting married. The "what will people say?!" playing on a loop in your head. One version of you at home, another at work, and another on the gay scene... translating yourself for everyone, until you're not quite sure who's left underneath.
BUT... you don't have to choose. You can be brown AND queer, close to your family AND true to yourself. We are both.
🙋🏽♂️ This is for you if...
🔹 You're gay, bi or questioning, and South Asian or mixed race
🔹 You're out to some people but not others (hello, out at work but not at home 👋🏽)
🔹 You're not out at all, or you're out but it's still hard with family, or larger family

Safe To Be Seen, my community
You don't have to come out to come home to yourself.
I'm the owner of Safe To Be Seen, a free, private community on Skool for gay and queer South Asian men, out or not. Gay, bi and questioning are all welcome.
If that headline felt familiar, this room is for you. It's built on one simple idea: queerness has always belonged in our cultures. The shame many of us carry was never ours to begin with.
Inside you'll find my free course, Queerness Was Always Ours, and a group of people who get it. Nobody outs anyone, and nobody needs your real name.
Turns out the room was always there. I just didn't know where the door was.... come and join us.
Hi, I'm Yatin 👋🏽
You've done everything “right.” You've worked hard, followed the rules, and tried to be the version of yourself the world expects. But deep down, something still feels... off.
I know that feeling. I still remember my dad asking me "Are you gay?" in the car on the way to the shops. I said no. By the end of the journey, I'd said yes. 😅 It took my family about a year, and back then I never thought I'd be fully out.
Now I help brown queer men see what that road could look like for them, at their own pace.
✨ Work with me 1:1 and you'll walk away with:

REAL STORIES, REAL TRANSFORMATIONS
"Before working with you, I felt stuck between my culture and my sexuality, afraid of disappointing my family. Now, I finally feel at peace with who I am and have the confidence to live authentically on my own terms"
Mohamed Patel
"It has been an absolute pleasure working with and getting to know Yatin. He is a patient, compassionate and an insightful coach and acts as a mentor in dealing with personal development within the south-asian diaspora"
Vishesh Mehta
"Coming out to my family felt impossible, but you helped me reframe my fears and approach it with confidence. Not only did I find the fear I had was unfounded, I have found my voice in other places."
Hamel Shah
"For years, I felt like I had to play a role to fit in, at work, in my relationships, everywhere. Thanks to you, I’ve learned that authenticity isn’t about being accepted by others, it’s about accepting myself first, and that’s exactly what I’ve done"
