Episode 2 | Suffer Not a Woman: Misogyny as Control on a Fundamentalist Christian Commune with Kelda Harrison
Growing up surrounded by the beauty of the natural world, singing songs with family, and not worrying about money might sound idyllic, but is it worth the freedom of choice?
In this episode, I’m joined by Kelda Harrison. Kelda is a mother, business owner, and co-host of the Skin and Blister podcast. She’s also a former faithful who rebuilt her entire life after leaving a strict fundamentalist Christian commune at 19.
Tune in to hear Kelda’s story, how she left, what she’s struggled through, and why it’s all been worth it.
