In today’s episode, myself and one of my fave people with and amazing mind, Oriana Jemide have an in dept discussion about purity culture, its roots, effects on people as well as our processes of learning, unlearning & relearning.
What has your experience been with purity culture?
What have the effects been, if any?
Have you remained under it, divested/ unlearned and/or found a healthy balance between faith teachings and wisdom?
