Intro to Scripture Part 2: The Birds and the Bees

About this episode

In this episode, Timitri and Katiah discuss their religious roots and how their beliefs and experiences shape their parenting approach.

You asked how we got here--so here it is. In Part 2 of our religion + parenting conversation, we open up about religious roots, the beliefs and values that stuck, and the experiences that reshaped everything. We talk faith, fear, healing, and what it looks like to parent with all of that in the rearview mirror. We also share a little clarification on some things we talked about in Part 1 that may have struck a cord in each other or simply came out wrong. We wanted to be authentic and genuine -- even when it gets a little messy and unhinged. Content Warning: discussion of adult themes with brief mention of physical abuse and SA.
