BIO
Janice Selbie grew up in a Pentecostal family. While at Bible college, she took a deep dive down the fundamentalist rabbit hole and aligned herself with Holdeman Mennonites. She started wearing a head-covering and disavowed jewelry, makeup, and all things secular.
Around age 40, Janice divorced both her husband and her religion. She went back to school to become a Registered Professional Counsellor and now has a thriving practice as a religious trauma recovery coach.
She is the founder and host of CORT: The Conference on Religious Trauma, and the Shameless Sexuality: Life After Purity Culture conference (happening in Seattle May of 2025).
In her spare time, Janice hosts the Divorcing Religion Podcast and serves as president of her local atheists, skeptics, and humanists association in BC, Canada.
