Escaping the Mormon Church with Lyn Smith Gregory
"Women are revered as wife-mothers. Having a big family is expected. It's the only available role for you. There were no role models of women in leadership positions in the mormon church...The mormon church is the second wealthiest christian religion in the world."
Today I sit down with Lyn Smith Gregory, a direct descendant of Joseph Smith, founder of the Mormon Church. Lyn shares her journey of growing up in a devout Mormon family, discovering the inconsistencies and dark truths about the church at age 19, and ultimately leaving the faith.
She discusses the emotional and psychological impact of religious trauma, the patriarchal limitations imposed on women, and her path to healing and self-discovery through meditation and therapy.
We also touch on Lyn's upcoming book, 'We Were Smiths: Escaping the Shadow of Joseph Smith's Mormon Legacy,' which delves deeper into her personal story and broader family dynamics.
