Kody’s Apology Tour: David Speaks Up, Meri’s Next, and Janelle’s Spiritual Release | SW S20 E13
from Growing Up In Polygamy · host Growing Up In Polygamy
In this episode, we react to Kody’s apology to Christine — a conversation that quickly shifts when David steps in to advocate for his wife. David pushes Kody to focus less on his own feelings and more on repairing relationships with his children, something Kody clearly isn’t comfortable hearing.We also talk about what’s next in Kody’s ongoing “apology tour,” with Meri expected to be next, and why Janelle still feels she needs a spiritual release before she can truly move on. Drawing from our own experiences in fundamentalist Mormon belief systems, we break down why that release may still hold deep spiritual meaning for Janelle — even after everything she’s been through.As always, we share our honest reactions, personal insight, and unpack the religious and emotional dynamics at play in this moment of Sister Wives.If you or someone you love has left polygamy and needs assistance, please reach out to "Holding Out HELP" at 801-548-3492 or visit their website at www.holdingouthelp.orgAt Growing Up In Polygamy our mission is to "Create compassion for communities that have been misunderstood, marginalized and/or abused by their leaders, and to empower those who have left by giving them a platform to share their stories with the world."If you would like to DONATE to this cause you can do so here: https://donorbox.org/growing-up-in-polygamyInsta: @growingupinpolygamyNew website is now up! www.growingupinpolygamy.comTheme Song created by @artcowles Please feel free to reach out to [email protected]
