Episode 27: Atheism in Recovery
from HOME Podcast · host Laura McKowen & Holly Whitaker
In the early episodes of HOME, Holly and Laura made a snarky joke about spirituality in recovery (not their coolest moment). Catherine Gray, today's guest and an atheist, rightly called them on it. A series of beautiful and enlightening conversations ensued, culminating in this episode's discussion with Catherine.
