This week on RfRx, Dr. Kara Griffin will discuss techniques for navigating difficult conversations related to religion and non-belief with important people in your life. We will go over deciding whether and how to start a conversation, setting yourself up for more productive interactions, knowing when to take a break, and avoiding common pitfalls. Bring your questions and join us for the interactive conversation!

Dr. Griffin was raised an evangelical Christian but left the faith in college to pursue their lifelong passion for learning and appreciating - rather than condemning - the diversity of humans and other animals we share our planet with. They hold a Master’s Degree in Dispute Resolution & Conflict Management and a PhD in Anthropology. Kara has worked as a hostage negotiator, mediator, and crisis communication trainer. Kara enjoys volunteering with secular organizations that support other people who may have experienced judgment, repression, trauma or other struggles related to their involvement with religious ideology. Kara serves as the Online Programming Director at Recovering From Religion and hosts the weekly RfRx Talks with the other (much cooler) co-hosts and volunteers.

For RfRx comments, inquiries & topical questions, email us at RfRx@recoveringfromreligion.org.
