I want to be relatable to someone listening, but I also obsess over making such a small part of my story relatable to EVERYONE. That’s impossible, and when I hit that dead-end, I slowly morph back into my old ways of people pleasing.

Being raised in a strict, conservative and religious environment, I’ve learned that there is extreme shame and anxiety surrounding topics such as sex, hooking up, making out, monogamy, polyamory, and STDs. You know, topics that “a good girl” should keep quiet about (or so I was told).

Join Julie Rodgers and I as we dig into "giving in to the flesh," the dissolution of Exodus International and the harmful practice of conversion "therapy." We wonder how to cope while on a public platform, how to love yourself in spite of being taught otherwise, and we pay tribute to the late artist formerly known as Prince and a cat by the same name.

Why do we have to pretend that every love story has a perfect, happy ending? Grief and loss are part of being human, and Tiff and I take time to discuss what happens when "till death do us part" becomes "till divorce do us part." What does that look like for ourselves? What does that look like for our kids? Join us as we take a hard look at celebrating love while also recognizing loss and pain.

My "Overthinking w/ Steph" podcast episodes are free for whomever wants to listen. "The Breakdown" episodes and other fun content that I create with friends is available to access for a small membership fee that helps me to continue to put out content into this world.
