In this episode, Jesse Harless and Keean explore the complex relationship between trauma, particularly religious trauma, and personal identity. They discuss how childhood experiences, especially the absence of a stable parental figure, can shape one's understanding of God and spirituality. The dialogue delves into the implications of spiritual bypassing, the roots of addiction, and the importance of compassion in recovery. They emphasize the need for critical thinking and self-reflection in healing from trauma and understanding one's relationship with God and others.
