Are you a victim to the culture of Mormonism? Have you experienced being shamed for who you were or what you were choosing because your loved ones chose the Mormon culture over you? Well you are not alone! My guest today is the amazing Jessie Funk. You may have heard about her, @dearauntjessie, from her singing and sharing her talent with EFY. Maybe  you have seen her speak, or seen her work with the youth, her books that she's published or more recently her events and retreats that she is facilitating. Jessie is a power house and I was thrilled to have her on the show today!Jessie shares that for years she clung onto the phrase, "a testimony is found by the bearing of it".  She felt that if she did all the little things, held onto faith, tried to do her very best to be as sincere as possible, as loving as possible, you name it that it would help her with her testimony in the Mormon church. But, it never worked.She shares that her transition out of Mormonism could be described as 'death by 1,000 paper cuts'. You can be happy and free. You can and will be blessed, even when you leave religion.See the magnificence of who you are. For more about Jessie's retreats go here: www.Especiallyfortruth.com Find her on IG & TickTock: @especiallyfortruthFor my 13 week leaving religion course go to: https://www.amandajoyloveland.com/leavingreligioncourseFor our Heart Opening Retreat go: https://www.amandajoyloveland.com/upcoming
