Seeds don’t grow in Survival Mode; it requires the space to take root. In this episode of Like‑Minded with Dr. Patrice, Dr. Patrice Le Goy sits down with Garrett Underwood, Founder of Seed House Project, to explore how we rethink homelessness through the lens of identity, purpose, and healing.
Through a deeply reflective conversation, Garrett shares the experiences that shaped his path—from his early work in community and employment programs to a pivotal relationship that redefined his understanding of the needs of the young people he served. Together, they unpack what it means to move beyond survival, how lived experience deepens empathy, and why restoring imagination is essential to long-term transformation. This episode invites listeners to consider what real support looks like, how identity is rebuilt after trauma, and what becomes possible when people are given the space not just to survive—but to grow.

What does it mean to heal from trauma caused by the people, beliefs, and practices of your faith? And to rebuild a sense of self, when high-control religion said you shouldn’t have one?
Today, we’re joined by New York Times bestselling author of A Well-Trained Wife, Tia Levings. Her harrowing experiences provided the blueprint for Tia’s raw and unfiltered memoir about religious trauma and the insidious trappings of Christian fundamentalism. This ideology, built around patriarchal men and submissive women, provides the same foundation of today’s right-wing conservatives, underpins the MAGA movement, and is the model for today’s trad wife.
In this episode, we’ll dissect some of the teachings and practices designed to stifle female agency and independence, explore Tia’s mental health journey to healing, and how her trauma became her testimony for others. In her upcoming book, I Belong to Me, Tia dives even deeper with other survivors about the healing process that comes after surviving womanhood in high-control environments.
