Content warning: This episode includes a raw, personal account of religious trauma.

Feminine Rebellion, meet Tia Levings.

Her story is incredible. Her story is important. Her story is timely.

It is a story of reclamation and Feminine power that left me tingling and inspired.

Tia Levings is an author whose work shines light on the abuses in Christian Fundamentalism and how they impact our headlines and culture today. Her book, The Well-Trained Wife, releases with St. Martin's Press in 2024.

Listen in as we discuss what fundamentalism is and how it is impacting our culture today, healing from religious trauma, and the power of the internet, community, and the Feminine.


Topics we discuss:

  • Religious trauma and what it can look like
  • About the IBLP (Institute in Basic Life Principles)
  • Fundamentalism and manipulation
  • Fundamentalism that exists now in American politics
  • How she left her marriage
  • Healing and recovery and reclamation
  • Advice for someone going through a similar experience
