In this week's episode of Religious Dropouts, hosts Chelsea and Brandon sit down with the inspiring Jen Noricks, a queer woman and mother of a queer teenager. Jen shares her journey from growing up in a religious community that didn't accept her identity to becoming a beacon of hope and support for the LGBTQ+ community. As a psychotherapist, minister, and president of PFLAG Livonia, Jen discusses the importance of creating safe spaces, the power of affirming identities, and the intersection of faith and queerness. Through personal stories, including the impactful tale of her uncle's faith and queerness, Jen offers insights into the challenges and triumphs of being true to oneself in a sometimes unaccepting world. This episode is a profound exploration of love, acceptance, and the journey to self-discovery, offering encouragement and support to those navigating their own paths.
