Episode 46 - Pssst: Patriarchy Hurts Men, Too - with Valerie Hamaker of Latter Day Struggles Podcast

I had it in my mind that I wanted to interview Valerie Hamaker of Latter Day Struggles, but was torn between talking about faith crisis for Season 2, or patriarchy for Season 3. When she offered to meet with us in the wake of their resignation from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I knew it needed to be about patriarchy…as it’s fingers were all over their story, and the faith crisis/transition narrative tells itself. Valerie is a brilliant and humble woman with deep love for the faith heritage we all share, and we were so excited and honored to have the opportunity to talk with her. We highly recommend listening to her other episodes/series on patriarchy on her website. * Instagram: https://instagram.com/latterdaystrugglespodcast* Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/valeriehamakerlatterdaystrugglespodcast* Website: https://valeriehamaker.com/ * Find her courses, how to work with her, sign up for her extra podcasts, newsletter, etc. * Scroll to the bottom to see links to different podcast topic series they’ve discussedbell hooks The Will to ChangeBreaking Down Patriarchy episode that discusses how to be an anti-patriarchist.
