In this episode one of our hosts' Mom- Jackie, shares her journey of healing from trauma, her experiences growing up in a large Mormon family, and the impact of high-demand religion on mental health. We learn about her rebellion against the beliefs instilled in her, the importance of self-empowerment, and her current spiritual beliefs that transcend traditional religion. Jackie emphasizes the significance of sharing trauma to foster connection and healing, and how to unapologetically live as your true self, embrace your identity and find your own power outside of a religion wrought with toxic patriarchal standards and abuse. The discussion explores the impact of high-control religions on sexuality and personal growth, emphasizing the importance of empowerment and breaking cycles for future generations. As always, with a side of irreverence and a passion for dragging abusive mediocre white men down to where they oughta be. Amen.
