How does one unlearn the rigid beliefs of purity culture?

This week, Dr. Kate is joined by Julia and Jeremiah of Sexvangelicals, a a podcast, educational platform, and community building project offering the sex education the church didn't want you to have.

The three of them unpack:

• The impact that these environments can have on one's relationship to pleasure and sex
• The sense of grief and loss that can come hand in hand with the freedom of exiting high control environments
• Redefining the role of importance that sex plays in your life

and so much more!

Be sure to check out Sexvangelicals podcast to gain insight on giving yourself permission to be a sexual person, navigating the deconstructing process, and healing from the ways that Christian communities may have gotten it wrong.
