What The Church?

What The Church?

Introducing the What The Church? podcast, I’m the host Jacqui Cousins. I’m a Public Health Practitioner specialising in institutional harm. This podcast is focused on improving health and spiritual care for people who have experienced religious harm. I interview people with a lived experience, and health and spiritual care providers who are committed to religious trauma recovery. Each person’s story improves our understanding of religious trauma, and their insights will empower us to deliver health and spiritual care in a safe and trauma-informed way. What The Church? believes breaking free from coercive religious practices is essential to improving the health and wellbeing of church communities. Join us for the conversation. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
