It’s here. Finally.

I share my story on joining - then leaving - the Latter-Day-Saint (Mormon) Church, and how I feel about it now. I offer questions to consider, no matter your personal beliefs.

I hope you listen - and live - with open eyes, open hearts, and open minds.

I love you.

The Brené Brown podcast episode I reference is from April 20 and April 27 (it’s a two-parter): Brené Brown with Father Richard Rohr on Spirituality, Certitude, and Infinite Love, Part 1 and 2

If you’ve ever doubted the direction of your life, or pondered your spirituality, or questioned your faith - this is conversation is especially for you. But even if not, it’s a discussion relevant to any human navigating life and its twist and turns, its possible paths.

Lou Bluth lets us in to her world, sharing her story of being raised Mormon and leaving the church (and the heavy blowback she received from that), religion’s lingering effects, living and farming in Mexico, and exploring what life has to offer. She tells how she took responsibility for her own life and beliefs, for the sake of herself and her family.

She’s open, she’s honest, she’s inspiring, she’s real…she’s divine.

She also now has her own podcast with her husband, where they talk parenting, living, loving…all the good stuff. You can listen to it on Spotify: El Vikingo and Lou (it will soon be available on iTunes).
