Meet Kimberly The Exvangelical Parent --
Women Beyond Faith
11/30/21 • 64 min
Kimberly Poovey is the founder of The Exvangelical Parent, a community of misfits, questioners, and wanderers, sharing our stories and navigating ethics, morality, and spirituality in parenting. We come from a wide variety of backgrounds and religious traditions, but we are all on a journey of deconstructing, reconstructing, and decolonizing our faith, (or lack thereof.) We aspire to raise good humans without religious baggage who will make the world a better, more just, and more loving place.
For the last several years, I’ve been in the process of deconstructing and reconstructing my faith, and I don’t yet know where I’ve landed. (Perhaps landing at all isn’t the point.) Now, as parents, my husband and I are trying to impart morality, ethics, empathy, compassion, and social justice to our child without making those things irrevocably interwoven with a conservative faith tradition. It’s a journey, and we are figuring it out as we go.
I’m a writer, artist, wife, and over-caffeinated mom. Enneagram 9. INFP. After spending over a decade in the ministry world, I now write and create full-time. You can find my work on Scary Mommy, The Mighty, The Huffington Post, The Natural Parent, Parent Co, and Her View From Home.

Meet Charisse -- The Existential Ginger
Women Beyond Faith
04/21/21 • 62 min
Charisse, born and raised in northern Utah, was a lifelong member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (aka Mormonism) until 2017. An abrupt divorce plunged her head-first into an existential crisis, leading her to walk away from the LDS faith and community.
Leaving religion changed everything for Charisse - how she looked at herself and others -- she contemplated her very existence.
She's been working on healing and navigating the religious trauma associated with those years in the church. One of the means Charisse has utilized to help process the trauma is The Existential Ginger podcast and platform. This platform provides a means for Charisse to share not only her voice -- but also the voices of others who find themselves on a similar journey.
This Existential Ginger currently lives in Southern PA with her 3 four-legged pals (2 cats and a dog). She works as a Beer Sales Rep by day.

In the time of Pandemic — Voices from Cincinnati June 2020
Women Beyond Faith
06/10/20 • 23 min
Here's an opportunity to meet a few of the phenomenal women in my local circle; Kellie, Jillian & Dara. They briefly talk life under quarantine.
Prompts were provided to get the conversation started -- if they so chose.
We've attempted to keep it apolitical (for the most part). No bashing. No shaming. And do our best to rise above all of that negativity and offer some positive energy to the world.
Basically - we wanted to know how women are surviving the pandemic this side of faith?
If you, too, would like to participate here's the How To:
1. Utilize a voice recorder. Apple has Voice Memo. You can use Zoom or any other recorder.
2. Check the quality. Adjust as needed. You may have to change rooms or lock yourself in the closet or something creative like that. If you have a microphone, please use it.
3. Email me the finished product [email protected]
4. My producer will get them edited and then we'll put them out there to share with the world. The idea is we'll put a few clips together for each episode.
5. Let me know if you have any questions, ideas or better questions to add to the list.
Here's what I've got (but feel free to ad lib) & no need to answer all of them. Please pick and choose.
1. Brief Intro: Name (or pseudonym), where you live in this great big world, and the basics of your faith deconstruction story.
2. What are you grateful for today?
3. Who are you checking in on or connecting with today?
4. What are you struggling with most during the pandemic?
5. What are you doing for your mental health today?
6. How are you getting outside today?
7. How are you moving your body today?
8. How are you managing the household today? Kiddos, partners, work, online schooling (kids or you)?
9. What beauty are you creating, cultivating or inviting in today?
10. How has leaving faith challenged and/or made easier living out this new day to day reality?
