Reconstructing Marriage after Deconstructing Faith - the Love Story of Darci and Brandon Burke

from Safe to Love · host Chad Nielson and April Benincosa

Send us Fan MailIn this episode we bring you the story of how painful the intersection of love and religion can be. Darci and Brandon's entire lives - including their marriage - were built upon the foundations of the Mormon Church (officially called the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints). When their souls could no longer fit within the confines of that religion, not only did they have to confront what that meant for their faith, they also had to learn how to grow and evolve their relationship into something that could survive and thrive without relying on the tenets of Mormonism, which had dictated the meaning of their marriage for so long - including what the purpose of their union and their individual roles within it. We are so excited to share this story with you, one of immense courage and endless hope. Through the power of their love, Darci and Brandon's marriage not only survived the deconstruction of their faith, it grew into something even more beautiful. Along the journey, Darci and Brandon became embodied experts on how to regulate our nervous system and create a space in our body where that was safe to be present. They truly represent what it means to be "Safe to Love."If you want to book a somatic session with Darci, you can do so on her website https://www.holoshealing.infoFollow Darci Burke on InstagramFollow Brandon Burke on InstagramFollow their show, Safe to be Seen, on InstagramSupport the show🔔 Subscribe for more great content and share this with someone who needs to hear it. Ready to get to work on yourself and your own relationship?❤️ Work With ChadInstagram |  @chadonlove❤️  Work with AprilInstagram |  @aprilbenincosa  Follow or Contact Safe to Love:Email | [email protected] |   safetolove.org YouTube |   @SafetoLoveShow Facebook |  Safe-to-Love Instagram |  @safetoloveshow TikTok | @safetoloveshow
