Recovering from Religious Dogma and Embracing Full Sexual and Relational Express

July 31, 2020

Religion can be a source of strength, community, meaning and purpose for some people while it can be a tool for oppression, control and exclusion for others - especially around sex and relationships. For those who grow up with or around ultra-religious families and communities, it can be hard to tell dogma apart from facts as they embark on a journey of self-discovery and expression. In this episode, Effy and Jacqueline talk with Marie D'Elephant about life after religion; figuring out what happens when what you are told God wants for you is different than what you want for yourself; finding the strength to forge your own path, your own expression and design relationships without pious prescriptions.
