Cognitive Dissonance in Queer Lives

In this episode, we break down cognitive dissonance and its impact on Queer individuals, especially within high-control religious environments. We explore the harmful effects of heteronormative conditioning, the enmeshment of religion and politics, and the importance of inclusive faith communities. Kit offers insights on navigating and healing from these experiences.More About KitKit Morgan (they/them), the author of The Liberated Porch on Substack, writes from their professional experience as a licensed social worker and therapist and personal experience as a trans and queer ex-fundamentalist.
