This week Jeremy Schumacher sits down with Tori Williams Douglass to discuss their journeys through evangelical upbringings, mental health, and deconstruction from rigid religious systems. Tori shares her experiences as a non-binary, neurodivergent person of color raised in predominantly white evangelical spaces and how those intersecting identities shaped her path to becoming an anti-racist educator and advocate. The conversation explores the challenges of breaking free from colonial, capitalist, and christian supremacist ideologies while addressing the necessity of grounding practices like hiking and community engagement for self-care. They also reflect on the importance of learning from marginalized communities to imagine and work toward a better, more equitable world.
To learn more about Tori and her work, head over to toriglass.com or you can find her socials here, and make sure to tune in to her podcasts, White Homework and Go Home Bible, You're Drunk.
Jeremy has all his practice info at Wellness with Jer, and you can find him on Instagram and YouTube.
