“The Gnostic Gospels were a deeper teaching, more even some would say a secret teaching of Jesus. Jesus was like a freaking Zen master in these books. He spoke in allegorical stories. The stories are much like fairy tales that have a really deep meaning.”



I was raised Christian, but I don't identify as Christian for many reasons. Shanna Vavra explains why I've been so resistant to it AND why what we've been taught is not the truth. In fact, it's a case for finding nuggets of truth in all religions. This is an absolutely fascinating interview!
  • The actual Creation story
  • What exactly does fallen angel mean?
  • Who is Sophia, and why is she so important to Christianity?
  • What are the Gnostic Gospels and what do they tell us?

Boysober

Boysober

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
