Growing Up as a Woman in Purity Culture
Manage episode 407323161 series 3561490
We are thrilled today to be talking with Rachel Overvoll! Rachel herself grew up in purity culture and high control religion. We discuss her experiences inside purity culture, the impact of it and her healing journey. We then get into how Rachel has used her personal story to inspire her professional life as a Somatic Sex Coach who works with clients focusing on finding sexual freedom after purity culture.
We’ll also be answering a listener question and a special prayer partner guest will be joining us for this episode’s segment of prayer requests!
