Growing up within the LDS Church is a tapestry woven with complex threads—traditions, expectations, and a sense of community that's hard to find elsewhere. Join Derek, Austin, and myself as we share the rich, sometimes challenging, narratives that have colored our lives from childhood to adulthood, providing a candid look at the Mormon culture that shaped our early years. We tackle the thorny issues many grapple with, like faith crises and the guilt that can accompany them, aiming to extend a bridge of understanding to anyone on their own spiritual journey.

This conversation takes us down memory lane, recounting the structured paths laid out by church teachings and the deep sense of belonging we felt. We reflect on life-changing experiences, such as serving missions and building entrepreneurial ventures, that were underpinned by the skills we honed through the church's voluntary service - like resilience, leadership, and communication. Whether you're intimately familiar with the LDS faith or just curious about its influence on personal development, Derek, Austin, and I invite you to explore the universal threads that connect us all, as we discuss how religion can both shape and propel us forward in life's journey.
