Part II: Religious Trauma, Grief & Overcoming: But Make it Fun
Nobody's Damsel is joined for a second week in a row by the brilliant and amazing Faye -- a psychology grad student whose faith deconstruction, while uniquely her own, mirrors that of host Ellie Coburn's in many ways. Faye and Ellie get together to continue to talk about the psychology of Americanized Christianity, their own deconstruction journeys and what/who God is to them now. This is an extension of the very first time that Ellie has ever opened up about her faith deconstruction and an episode you won't want to miss if you yourself have been deconstructing your faith or if you've ever wondered what that might look like for others. Join Faye and Ellie as they look at the world of Christianity and "recovering from Christianity" through an all too unspoken lens while having a bit of fun and some great laughs getting into it.
