How being a Jehovah’s Witness shapes your views on sex and dating, with Jodie Chapman

This week, Olivia is joined by author Jodie Chapman to discuss how being a Jehovah’s Witness shapes your views on sex and dating.


Jodie has just published her first book, a novel called Another Life, which tells the story of Nick and Anna, who meet when they’re young one summer and working at the same cinema. Nick and Anna come from two very different backgrounds, as we soon discover, with Anna having been raised as a Jehovah’s Witness, as Jodie was.


On the show, Jodie speaks about leaving the faith as an adult and the many ways that her upbringing as a Witness shaped the way she thought about sex and relationships.


The duo also talk about celibacy, how religion can act as a barrier in relationships, and misconceptions around Doomsday religions.
