In part two of this powerful conversation, Tamera continues sharing her story of being brought into the Grandin, Missouri Nationwide Mennonite church and learning to survive within a high-control religious environment she did not choose. We explore coercive control, belonging, faith, gender roles, survival, and the complicated process of questioning and leaving insular systems.

Through Tamera's story, this episode offers a nuanced look at life inside Mennonite communities, the pressures placed on women, and the resilience it takes to find one's voice.
