TW: SA, purity culture, misogyny, sexual shame, mass shooting (time stamp: 24:00-27:40), high control religious abuse, queerphobia & homophobia

This week we have Blair (she/her) of @talkpuritytome on the podcast! Blair has been breaking barriers in the purity culture space for a while now, and was a major pillar of my own deconstruction.

In this episode, we are talking about YOUR purity culture experiences! A while back, I asked my IG audience to finish this statement: “Purity culture made me ______.” So this week, we are sifting through your experiences and breaking down the harm that purity culture has done.

Blair’s account (@talkpuritytome) is an amazing educational resource for folks deconstructing purity culture. You can also find Blair on Tik Tok and Twitter as well as IG!

Time To Talk Taboos: A Convo About Menstrual Care & Chronic Illness With @letstalkperiodau - Ep. 77

COMMUNITY UPDATE - I have rebranded my Tik Tok from @fina__bina to @mindfulmindspod !! If you are looking for our page on Tik Tok, that's where to find all of our deconstruction videos and content.

Content warning: We talk about blood, surgery, and medical procedures in this episode!

This week we have Isabella (she/her) of @letstalkperiodau to talk about all things menstrual care & chronic illness! This is unlike any other episode we have done, but I felt like it was a really important topic to touch on.

For many of us who grew up in religious environments, we didn’t learn about our bodies or how to know if something is wrong. In this episode, we talk a lot about PCOS and Endo, and how to treat these conditions, how to recognize them, and how to push against the cultural taboos. I learned SO much in this episode, and to be honest, was quite surprised by how much I didn’t know.

Isabella’s IG account, @letstalkperiodau, is a great educational resource, especially for ex-religious folks. She also has her amazing podcast, Let’s Talk, Period, which is available on all streaming platforms! If you are looking for more education resources, you can also find her blog here, her website here, her mentoring information here, and her Tik Tok here!
