Sarah and Tanya kick off the episode with a lighthearted conversation about Fourth of July traditions, parenting moments, and a few of the latest headlines before welcoming Margaret Bronson and Brittany Ericson of Deconstruction Doulas. Margaret and Brittany share their powerful stories of leaving high-control fundamentalist religious communities (aka cults) and discuss the challenges of rebuilding their lives after religious trauma. They also explain how Deconstruction Doulas supports survivors navigating life beyond abuse while offering insight into recognizing the signs of coercive religious environments. It's an eye-opening conversation about resilience, healing, and finding the courage to reclaim your own path.
