E33: Painful Endings and New Beginnings w/ Janice Selbie

Recovering From Religion

For this one year anniversary RfRx show we’re talking about Beginnings! New beginnings are often disguised as painful endings… and we’ve had many. From grief to greatness, Janice will let you in on some of her successful strategies for surviving the end and boldly beginning again. As a registered professional counsellor with a personal history of religious trauma syndrome, Janice is passionate about helping others understand their losses and embrace their new identity in the secular world. Her own deconversion experience compelled her to develop the on-line Divorcing Religion Workshop, a 6-week interactive workshop combining written exercises and group work to bring together those from diverse backgrounds who are walking a similar journey. Hosted by Amaia Perez, the RfR Online Programming Director, and Eric Wells, the RfR Support Group Director. Recorded on March 29, 2021 For RfRx comments, inquiries & topical questions, email us at [e-mail].
