This week we have an enlightening conversation with Katherine Spearing (she/her) of @uncertainpodcast and Tears of Eden. Tears of Eden “seeks to empower survivors to connect with their own agency to pursue the healing process from Spiritual Abuse. Tears facilitates connection to other survivors and provides language and resources to name the experience of Spiritual Abuse.”
We have spoken about religious trauma a TON but we have yet to dive deep into spiritual abuse. Katherine brought such an amazing perspective to the podcast in such an educated and thoughtful way.
If you want to check out Katherine’s work you can find Katherine online @katherinespearing and on her website. And if you want to follow Tears of Eden, you can find them online @uncertainpodast and on their website AND you can learn more about their in person retreat here.
