Inner Compass
Welcome to the Inner Compass Podcast. The process of creating this podcast allowed for us to more deeply heal and alchemize our experiences, and the wounding that came from a life within a high demand religion (the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints / Mormonism). This is a true offering from our hearts, and an honoring of our lived experience. From the time we were children we were conditioned to outsource our own authority and intuition to the men who presided over us. We were taught the value of free agency and personal revelation, but only if it matched the church’s teachings. This left us disempowered and disconnected from our own innate knowing and power. We were taught that obedience is the crowning virtue. This left us vulnerable to manipulation and control in relationships and from our priesthood authorities. Eventually the confusion and heartache that came from our own inner knowing was not matching what the church taught, led to our faith expansion and unraveling of a lifelong belief system. Feeling and knowing our own hearts to be pure and good finally led us to make a choice. When our own inner voice and knowing are saying one thing and the church is saying another, which do we follow? In each episode we will take you on our individual and collective journey to answer this question. Join us each week to listen to our unique and somehow universal experiences, and how in the end we listened to our own inner compass and turned our wounds into wisdom. Podcast Episodes: 1. Introduction- Welcome to the Inner Compass 2. Michell’s story; Silenced by the Patriarchy 3. Kristen’s story; My Intuition Entangled in the Institution 4. Leilani’s story; Part 1 - Outsourcing my Worthiness (*Trigger Warning* includes conversation about sexual abuse) 5. Leilani’s story; Part 2 - Toxic Conformity 6. Mayberry to Mayhem 7. Burned at the Stake Center 8. Liberation; Turning our Wounds into Wisdom (And more to come . . .)

As we go through changes in our lives, it’s often messy! We like to think of these times as the caterpillar stage… where you’re going along in life all good and realize maybe you were meant to be different, so you go inside yourself (metaphorically speaking) take a real look at who you are and who you want to be, do the long hard work of morphing, what we call “The Goo Phase” and re-enter life changed and ready for more! In this e...

As we each move forward in our lives outside of Mormonism, with each new nugget of understanding, we find peace and the insatiable desire to learn more, as we have realized how small our view has been. This is an ongoing process that we expect to last through this lifetime. We continue to heal and expand our knowledge as we each continue to turn our wounds into wisd...
From the time we were children, we were conditioned that our priesthood leaders were there to guide us & had authority over us. We were taught the value of our free agency and personal revelation, but only if it fit within the confines of the church & its priesthood leaders revelation & guidance they received for us. This left us feeling disempowered, confused and disconnected from our own innate, inner knowing and per...

In our last episode, we talked about becoming close friends, and raising our families together. We rediscover our identities after losing ourselves in motherhood. We reclaim and discover our god given gifts, only to find out that those god given gifts were seen as dangerous, and outside the parameters laid out for women in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
