    What about the aftermath

    This week we are back to talk about the aftermath of coming out. If you listened last time, you know we come from a very religious background, so this wasn’t easy. Erika and Kaeli both share about this past week- the week after coming out. They share about their expectations before coming out, the reality that hit this past week and their thoughts on it all. We want to thank everyone who messaged us with your positive and affirming messages. You definitely made this week so much better than it might have been. You made a difference. Stay with us as over the next few weeks we dive farther into the responses that we got and our thoughts, LGBTQ2IA+ and religion and the parent side of things, and we will probably think of more along the way. Again- we will NOT tolerate any hate or harmful speech here on any of our socials, including private messages. This is a safe space for the LGBTQ2IA+ community. This is a space to celebrate, affirm and show some true love! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🏳️‍🌈 Our socials; @theofficialwwp @rachelledmorris @2momslivingauthentically @erikajmorris @kaelibre @gillianwagnermorris

    What about Coming Out

    We are back with a new episode on coming out. We discuss what it has been like to grow up in a very religious family/community and how Erika and Kaeli both came out. They both bring us through their journey to discover who they really were and how it has been for them since coming out. This episode is also in celebration of Pride Month, and we will be doing a series the whole month of June on what it like to be LGBTQ+ and very religious. Please Note: We will NOT tolerate any hate or harmful speech on any of our socials and this includes “hate the sin, love the sinner”. LGBTQ+ people will be safe in this space and on all our social media spaces. This is a space to celebrate, affirm, and show some true love. Thank you for listening!

    What about, Difficult Women?

    In this episode we introduce our 3 part series for Sexual Assault Awareness Month. We start the series by talking about as women, we are set up for a zero sum game. If you dress up, wear make-up, even wear a skirt, you are trying to get attention and trying too hard, yet if you wear sweats, a hat and no make-up, you aren’t taking care of yourself. If you wear a short skirt or a low cut shirt, you are a slut, but if you wear sweats and sweatshirt then you are a slob. If a guy makes a mistake, it’s laughed off, however, if a woman makes a mistake, she’s dumb. When a guy gets in a car accident, it’s chalked up to learning or laughed off, however, if a woman gets in an accident, “all women” are bad drivers. The problem with this “game”, is that everyone loses. We talk about these paradoxes and more. In the end we ask that everyone goes away thinking about how we each show up and how we would like to show up. We each need to accept, and do our own work, asking the question, how is this serving me? Thank you for listening.

    What about sin...

    In this episode we talk about sin. Rachelle is a pastor’s kid from evangelical Christian background, and Erika, Kaeli, and Gillian were brought up in evangelical Christian churches as well. We have a conversation about the paradoxes of sin and teachings about it in the church. One example is how “we are born sinners”, yet “we are created in God’s image”. Hmmm.... Another example is that, “God will never leave you nor forsake you”, yet “we can create a divide with God through our sin”. Interesting.... We talk about these and more. And... what could it look like if we could actually be encouraged to have a personal relationship with God?

    Endometriosis Awareness

    In this episode we chat about endometriosis- wait, what is that? Listen in to hear about living with endometriosis; an invisible illness and how you can help- it’s probably not what you think. Globally, there is an estimated 1 in 10 women who live with endometriosis. This number is most likely much higher because the diagnosis is so difficult. It takes an average about 7 years to be diagnosed. For Rachelle, it was over 30. There is no cure. Of the 5 girls in our family, 3 are already diagnosed. The symptoms of Endometriosis include painful periods, painful ovulation, pain during or after sexual intercourse, heavy bleeding, chronic pelvic pain, fatigue, and infertility, and can impact on general physical, mental, and social well being. Thank you for listening. Our socials; @theofficialwwp @rachelledmorris @2momslivingauthentically @erikajmorris @kaelibre @gillianwagnermorris

    A Parent’s Perspective of Living With a Child With a Rare Disease

    In this episode, Rachelle and Erika talk about the parent’s side of living with a child with a rare disease and illnesses. If you missed it, you will want to go back and listen to episode 5 where Erika opens up and shares a small piece of her story. Rachelle has lived with invisible illnesses her whole life and now helps her kids to navigate life with them. She shares some of the ups and downs of life with 5 kids and kids with challenges. Some of the struggles can hit hard, especially when dealing with specialists, family and friends. Rachelle also chats about some things they would change and how she would do things very differently now. Erika also shares her perspective and they have a conversation about navigating those challenges as a child and now as an adult. One of the most important things they want you to know is to trust your gut. You are the parent and you know your child the best. You will have to make some hard choices and ultimately, do what is best for you, your child and your family. Each situation is so different and that is ok. Do what you need, be who you need to be and find what you need. Our socials; @theofficialwwp @rachelledmorris @2momslivingautgentically @erikajmorris @kaelibre @gillianwagnermorris
