#40. Sexual abuse, religious trauma, and her healing journey - PART 2 of 2 - with Faith Deconstruction Coach Melanie Cain

In Part 2 of 2, we talk about the modern day Melanie is dealing with from her journey — real time hardships and repair in her relationship with her husband, being a mom during her coming off of pharmaceutical drugs and her psychosis, and observations around how her family treats and observes her, as well as the changes she is making as a mom. Her story is bold, raw, messy and gorgeous. If you are mom who is in the throws of family and religion and mental health, you should take a listen.   In Part 1 of 2, we hear a detailed story from Faith Deconstruction Coach, Melanie Cain about her religious upbringing. Trigger warning: This episode explicitly talks about rape, assault, molestation, and other violence. Please take care of yourself as you listen along. There's a whole movement we're experiencing when it comes to religious shame and trauma. People are waking up, sick of being oppressed. The controlling nature of purity culture in religious communities has hurt women the most. Time to heal.  Links we talked about: Find Melanie Cain and her stuff here: https://www.instagram.com/mel.unfiltered/ https://calendly.com/mel_unfiltered/group-transforming-trauma-after-mormonism?month=2021-09 Pleasure Priestess - 1on1 Coaching: https://www.ellenmelon.com/1on1 Workshop & Events: https://www.ellenmelon.com/events ____________________ About Ellen Melon: Sex & Relationship Coach and Un-Educator Ellen Melon links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ellenmelonshow/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/EllenMelonShow Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ellenmelonshow Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCL_F0bL0mItXS-jundACwnA Website: https://www.ellenmelon.com
