“Every episode I’ve listened to has deeply moved me because of the honesty, and compassion that the hosts have for themselves and one another. As someone who was brought up in a closeted fundamentalist religion that taught me to fear my self, and other people, it’s heartwarming and life-affirming...”Read full review »

“Brady likes to attack racial minorities and double down on his white supremacist behavior. He claims to have deconstructed from Evangelicalism but it is clear that he has not deconstructed from the white supremacy, sexism, lack of compassion and accountability that go with it.”

“Brady puts his heart and soul into this podcast and the result is the support we all need as we deconstruct! Knowing we aren’t alone in the trauma we have all experienced, as well as learning ways to deal with said trauma is invaluable!

“I identify so much with many of the storytellers. I had my deconstruction years ago but have never heard of anyone who had been through experiences similar to mine. This is such a breath of fresh air. It has been super helpful in working through my own past RT. Many therapists don’t understand...”Read full review »

“I’m so thankful to have for this podcast. When she said that women who have a strength of their own that doesn’t originate from men is dangerous to their fundamental Christianity (paraphrasing) I broke down in tears. The real cry. The ugly cry. I am just starting my journey into deconstructing....”Read full review »
