I’ve left the Mormon church but, damn it, I just can’t leave the church alone. Pull up a camp chair around the theoretical fire as I chat about all things post-Mormon. We'll be discussing what it's like to rediscover spirituality after high-demand religion, reading submissions about the cultural craziness of the Mormon/post-Mormon experience, and delving into guests' stories of self-discovery.

I asked for your spiciest takes on sex, dating, marriage, and relationships—and you delivered. On the list? Polyamory, pornography, knowing if you picked the right partner, and surviving Mormon family parties as a single woman. And that’s just the beginning.

Today’s the day! I’ve been sitting on something big about the direction of Girlscamp, and I can’t wait to share it with you. In this episode, I’m breaking down the what and why of this shift.

We’re reading and reacting to your wild card, off-the-wall Mormon stories, and I brought in Stacey Harkey to help me unpack the, well… chaos. And speaking of chaos, these stories deliver. From demonic possession (allegedly caused by questioning polygamy) to the “Three Nephites” saving a dog, to an evil hot chocolate maker—there’s a little bit of everything in this one.
