In this episode, Michael invites Alyssa Grenfell, an ex-Mormon influencer, to discuss their journeys of leaving the Mormon church and dealing with religious trauma. Both share their personal experiences, pain, and challenges faced while growing up in a religious environment.

Alyssa talks about her work, including her book 'How to Leave the Mormon Church,' and the process of deprogramming herself before publicly sharing her story. The conversation covers topics like identity formation, overcoming shame, and navigating relationships and motherhood outside the religious framework. They both emphasize the importance of living authentically and finding personal freedom separate from religious indoctrination.
