What makes someone walk away from everything they've ever known and believed? In this deeply personal episode, we share the raw and vulnerable story of why we left Mormonism. From the first unsettling sparks of doubt to the unraveling of deeply rooted beliefs, we explore what it's like to question a system that once gave your life purpose, direction, and belonging.
We talk about the courage it takes to leave behind a community that shaped your identity—and the confusion, grief, and loneliness that often follow. This is not just a story about religion; it’s a story about waking up to yourself, learning to trust your inner voice, and finding truth in places you never expected.
If you’ve ever felt the ground shift under your feet—whether in faith, marriage, motherhood, or identity—this one’s for you.
