Today I'm talking with Lieba Swartz-Brownstein. Originally born in Alaska, Lieba was raised in Portland, Oregon where she became religious along with her two brothers. Following high school, Lieba left home to study abroad in Israel before continuing her college education at Stern College for Women at Yeshiva University in New York. 

In this episode, we talk about Lieba's journey through Orthodoxy, the struggle to find the gift and wholeness in her queerness, how she found recovery from her Eating Disorder, and what it means to stay in deep relationship with family. 

Lieba currently lives in Brooklyn, New York and is happily partnered. She works as a psychotherapist supporting folks in healing their relationship to food and their body as well as helping many young people step into their own queer liberation.
