Welcome to Healed-ish! A podcast about the messy, beautiful, and sometimes insane process of healing. Each week, host Jubilee Dawn (@jubileedawns) sits down with survivors of betrayal, religious trauma, catfishing, toxic relationships, and more to unpack the chaos and growth that comes with starting over.

    61. IBLP and The Umbrella of Authority: Part 2 (Bethany’s Story)

    Content warning: This episode includes discussion of domestic violence and sexual abuse. Bethany was raised in IBLP, the same belief system associated with the Duggars, where teachings like the “umbrella of authority” shaped her understanding of marriage and submission. As one of eleven children, she was expected to help raise her siblings and follow strict gender roles. When she met her ex-husband, their relationship quickly moved toward marriage under intense pressure from purity culture and family expectations. What followed was an abusive marriage marked by control, gaslighting, and betrayal. With the help of a therapist, Bethany began to recognize the reality of what she had experienced, including abuse that had been normalized in her upbringing. Today, she is no contact with her dad, many of her siblings have deconstructed, and she has built a safe and healthy life with her partner. - Bethany’s Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@bethany_joyful Bethany’s IG: https://www.instagram.com/bethany_joy_ful Bethany’s Poetry: https://www.instagram.com/this.is.not.a.train - Patreon: ⁠https://www.patreon.com/Healedish⁠ Follow for more:   Jubilee’s TikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@jubileedawns⁠  Jubilee’s IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/jubileedawns⁠  Healed-ish TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@healedishpodcast⁠  Healed-ish IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/healedishpodcast⁠  Apply To Share Your Story: ⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/23f8SPBX1VntsqUU8⁠

    59. Abused by My Therapist for Years (Mia Chard's Story)

    Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of physical & spiritual abuse, self harm, and suicide. Mia was born and raised in the LDS church and experienced childhood sexual abuse that deeply impacted her mental health. As she struggled with self harm, an eating disorder, and thoughts of ending her life, her bishop referred her to a therapist she was told she could trust. She saw him for nine years. What began as therapy turned into abuse. He told her she was being oppressed by a demon and needed his help to be set free. Over time, this escalated into physical abuse, including suffocation and injury, all under the guise of helping her. Mia eventually told a friend and reported him, beginning a long fight for justice. Her case was later covered by Rolling Stone. Today, she has built a safe and healthy life for herself. After everything she endured, she is now in a loving relationship and preparing to get married. Her story is one of survival, truth, and resilience. - Mia’s Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@madmnc Mia’s IG: https://www.instagram.com/madmnc/ - Patreon: ⁠https://www.patreon.com/Healedish⁠ Follow for more:   Jubilee’s TikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@jubileedawns⁠  Jubilee’s IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/jubileedawns⁠  Healed-ish TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@healedishpodcast⁠  Healed-ish IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/healedishpodcast⁠  Apply To Share Your Story: ⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/23f8SPBX1VntsqUU8⁠

    57. From Jehovah's Witness to "Disfellowdipped" (Jordan's Story)

    Jordan as a Jehovah’s Witnesses, where his childhood revolved around church meetings, strict rules, and going door to door to share what he believed was the truth. In this episode, he shares what it was like growing up in that environment, from confessing sins to elders to the belief that they are the one true religion, including teachings like the 144,000. We also talk about some of the more surprising aspects of the faith, like no voting, no birthdays, and restrictions around blood transfusions. Since leaving, Jordan has experienced being shunned by his family, but he has also found his voice. He now shares on TikTok under the name “disfellowdipped,” using humor to talk about some of the wildest parts of the religion while also raising awareness about deeper issues within the culture. - Jordan’s Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@disfellowdipped2 Jordan’s IG: https://www.instagram.com/disfellowdipped/ - Patreon: ⁠https://www.patreon.com/Healedish⁠ Follow for more:   Jubilee’s TikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@jubileedawns⁠  Jubilee’s IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/jubileedawns⁠  Healed-ish TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@healedishpodcast⁠  Healed-ish IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/healedishpodcast⁠  Apply To Share Your Story: ⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/23f8SPBX1VntsqUU8⁠ https://www.patreon.com/TheOvershareHour

    56. A Bible Scholar's Deconstruction (Mattie Mae Motl's Story)

    Mattie Mae Motl is a Bible scholar who specializes in gender and sexuality, and her work sits right at the intersection of faith, doubt, and curiosity. In this episode, Mattie shares what first sparked her deconstruction and the moments that led her to question some of the beliefs she once held about the Bible. We talk about the tension of studying scripture deeply while also confronting the fact that parts of the Bible may not be historically accurate. Mattie also opens up about what it’s been like navigating faith and deconstruction within her marriage, especially when she and her husband no longer believe the same things. Despite the questions and uncertainty, she explains how she has found a way to maintain her faith while holding space for nuance, complexity, and ongoing growth. - Mattie’s Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mattiemaemotl Mattie’s IG: https://www.instagram.com/mattiemaemotl/ - Patreon: ⁠https://www.patreon.com/Healedish⁠ Follow for more:   Jubilee’s TikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@jubileedawns⁠  Jubilee’s IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/jubileedawns⁠  Healed-ish TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@healedishpodcast⁠  Healed-ish IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/healedishpodcast⁠  Apply To Share Your Story: ⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/23f8SPBX1VntsqUU8⁠

    55. Starting Over After Choosing Divorce (Cora Lakey's Story)

    Cora Lakey has been documenting her healing journey on TikTok after choosing divorce during a season when she thought she and her husband would be trying for a baby. She knew it was the right decision, but that didn’t make it easy. In this episode, she shares what it was like to hold both certainty and heartbreak at the same time, and how painful it was when her ex mother in law, someone she truly saw as a mom, was the one who served her divorce papers. We talk about the red flags she wishes she had paid attention to before getting married, why learning to trust your gut can change everything, and what rebuilding looks like now. Cora also shares about her time as a Disney princess at Disneyland, from the audition process to what the job was really like. Today she is starting over with her two dogs, her creativity, and a deeper sense of self. - Cora’s Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@coralakey Cora’s IG: https://www.instagram.com/cora.lakey/ - Patreon: ⁠https://www.patreon.com/Healedish⁠ Follow for more:   Jubilee’s TikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@jubileedawns⁠  Jubilee’s IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/jubileedawns⁠  Healed-ish TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@healedishpodcast⁠  Healed-ish IG: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/healedishpodcast⁠  Apply To Share Your Story: ⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/23f8SPBX1VntsqUU8⁠
