Ep. 280: The Evolution of Our Religious and Spiritual Beliefs

Easter Sunday just passed and it got us thinking about religion. We have our own experiences with religion, but things look a little different for us now. And while we recognize that our experiences are solely our own, we wanted to discuss with you how that has impacted our lives, and our journeys through spirituality and beyond. Religion is nuanced and deeply personal, this is just how WE feel about it all.
