What do “birth control shorts,” septum piercings, and The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives have in common? They’re all part of the messy, liberating journey of leaving high-demand religions and facing the ever-terrifying “s” word: stigma.
In this episode, Jessa and Austin dive into the social stigmas faced by individuals who step away from high-demand faiths. Jessa shares her personal experiences, unpacking how religious expectations shape dating, self-expression, and relationships. From navigating judgment to rebuilding community, they explore what it means to pivot from “no no” to “go go” and reclaim your identity.
Whether you’re deconstructing your own beliefs, supporting someone who is, or just curious about the challenges of leaving high-demand religions, this episode is your guide to chucking shame in the “fuck it” bucket and embracing authenticity.
