May 03, 2022 Meghan
Meghan began her journey out of the LDS/Mormon church after her abuse was mishandled and she was gaslighted on multiple levels of authority when it was reported. What happens when a priesthood holder who also happens to be a mental health counselor and a volleyball coach in multiple positions of trust is believed and protected by their clergy? MORE VICTIMS HAPPEN!

April 23, 2022 Toby Marie
Toby grew up in the typical Mormon family with the usual unreasonable expectations of each child to conform to damaging cultural norms of purity, worthiness, outward shows of perfection, submission to the patriarchy, rejection of self... As mormon youth we are told exactly who we are, where we are going, and where we belong.
When parents are kept so busy serving the Lord, their children, marriages, and self are neglected. No one talks about the verbal, emotional, spiritual, physical, and sexual abuse. If we dont talk about it then it isnt really happening, right?

March 28, 2022 Sam Young Protect Every Child
https://protecteverychild.com/read-the-stories/ Sam's journey did not begin with survivors in mind yet his efforts have gained the support & validation of survivors. Many survivors stepped forward & shared their stories with Sam and the "Protect Every Child" movement. Often they have found that not only is it healing to share their story, but their story validates & heals other survivors. The LDS Church has no sense of urgency to reflect on & change its dangerous and inappropriate interview practices no matter how many members & exmembers point out the issues. They will have to be forced to change by societal pressures &/or law enforcement. Why do religious organizations blatantly lack accountability? Hypocricy is learned well in the LDS church.

March 22, 2022 Rebecca Williams
Rebecca's story shares the deep psychological and emotional effects of intergenerational trauma and religious trauma. When the person we are told we are and/or must be, is in direct conflict with the person we actually are or would otherwise choose to be, self loathing and self shaming become a daily routine. Rebecca is a courageous human with a beautiful soul and a new perspective on life after leaving Mormonism.

December 11, 2021 Billy Dinkel
The only way to make child sexual abuse stop is to make it safe for children and survivors to speak up and tell their stories. Billy Dinkel is a survivor and he speaks publicly to bring attention to how child sexual assault victims are shamed, silenced, and manipulated into keeping their perpetrator's secrets. He is an excellent advocate for survivors and has given many survivors the courage to also start talking about their abuse.

July 27, 2021 Sara H.
Sara is sharing her story for the first time from start to finish on this podcast episode. Like many survivors, she has told bits and pieces, but there's always parts that we don't reveal and hold close to us. I hope our listeners grasp how profound this is for Sara! Imagine how much courage this takes.
When she found our podcast, she knew that she wanted to add her voice to the others. Speaking out and normalizing these conversations is exactly what she wanted to do as well.

Sara also isn't "out" as an exMormon yet! Her faith transition is still very fresh and unfolding. Join us as Sara shares her story.
