Ep. 55, Religious trauma is REAL (and uncomfortable to talk about)

This episode has been on my heart for awhile....and if I'm being honest with you, and myself, I've been apprehensive about sharing it. There is still a part of me that believes that this "trauma" isn't real. That it's "not that big of a deal", and I should just "get over it". Fortunately, there is a bigger part of me that knows that this is my truth and it might be something that some of you can relate to.  This episode will not be for everyone - and I know that. My hope is that for the person that has felt lost in their faith, is upset with god, or traumatized from or angry with organized religion, that you know that you are not alone.  I am a firm believer that our spirituality is complelety seperate from organized religion. And it has taken me a long time to declare that publicly.  If you have a history with religion that has left you feeling lost, frustrated, or confused, I hope you will take a listen.
