Coming Home to Yourself After Religious Trauma

If you’ve ever felt the lingering impact of religious trauma - especially from high-control, fear-based systems - this episode is for you. I’m sharing from my personal experience growing up in the Seventh-Day Adventist church, and exploring seven common factors that can create deep disconnection from your body, your needs, and your sense of self. This episode touches on: • Why trauma isn’t just about what happened, but how it lives in the body • How messages like “you’re born sinful” or “don’t trust yourself” can shape self-worth • The overlap between purity culture and disordered eating • The importance of reconnecting with your body in healing If any of this resonates, know you’re not broken - and you’re not alone. 🌿 The Free Spirit Academy membership is open this month! For $25/month, you’ll get access to every course inside. I recommend starting with Coming Home to Your Body - a 30-day exploration of trauma, the nervous system, and what it really means to feel safe being fully yourself.
