CATHOLIC SCHOOL DROPOUT

Evelyn fell DEEP into fundamental Catholicism as a struggling teen, to the point of only wearing skirts (even to go swimming). But once she started at Franciscan University, the fundamentalism became too much. Her journey includes discovering her sexuality, being told her panic attacks might be demonic and ultimately being intimidated into withdrawing from Franciscan. Let me tell ya, fundamental Catholicism might just give Mormonism a run for its money. Please note this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

I deconstructed my Mormon faith down to the bone—and then, when my dad died, the deconstruction shit really hit the fan. Now, Girlscamp is steering toward something deeper: finding meaning again. Whether you’re piecing things together after a faith deconstruction, a loss, or a life change, grab a camp chair and join the conversation around the fire. We’ll explore spiritual ideas and philosophies, chat with experts about living ~our best lives~, interview people who’ve rebuilt their beliefs to see where they’ve landed, and share wild stories about the highs, lows, and in-betweens of figuring it all out. All with honesty, heart, and humor—because that's what Girlscamp is all about.
