• The Rebel Needs a Rest: Spotting Burnout and Coming Back Stronger
    Dec 5 2024

    In this episode, I’m getting real about burnout—what it looks like, how to spot it, and why rest is essential. Running this podcast solo has been a wild ride, but it’s also taught me that honoring my energy is non-negotiable if I want to avoid crashing and burning.

    If you’ve ever felt the pressure to keep going, even when you’re running on empty, this is for you. I’m sharing why I’m taking a break for the rest of December, and how I’m letting go of the fear of falling behind. Taking a pause doesn’t mean failure; it’s part of the process.

    I’ll be back in January, ready to dive back in with fresh energy and ideas. In the meantime, if you’ve been enjoying The Rebel in Me, I’d love it if you could rate and review the podcast. It helps more people find these conversations and keeps this little rebellion going strong.

    Let’s talk about how rest can help us all come back stronger. Tune in!

    Nov 20 2024

    In this episode of The Rebel In Me, I share the final chapter of my faith deconstruction journey—how exploring the history of Christianity shattered the last remnants of belief I held onto. As my questions grew, I couldn’t ignore the disconnect between what I was learning and what I’d been taught. The deeper I delved, the more it stopped making sense, pushing me to embrace a new path and a new life. Tune in for an honest look at how my accidental rebellion, spiritual awakening, and search for truth ultimately changed everything.

Hear how my therapist’s bold suggestion of a visit to a sex shop and the insights on "good girl" conditioning started my path to redefining love, autonomy, and spirituality. This episode is for anyone on a deconstruction journey or curious about the impact of faith, therapy, and self-discovery.

  • Growing Up Non-Mormon in Utah: A Journey from Judgment to Empathy
    Oct 23 2024

    In this episode, I reflect on my experience growing up in Utah as a non-Mormon surrounded by the dominant Mormon culture. As a young girl, I often wondered why my family was the odd one out, and I carried feelings of pride and prejudice, believing I knew better and thinking Mormons were in a cult. But over time, my perspective has evolved. Now, I see how much I have in common with those I once judged, realizing that I, too, grew up within the confines of church teachings. Today, I no longer say Mormons are wrong. Instead, I hope they—and all of us—know that we have the freedom to question, choose, and discover what truly resonates with our beliefs.
