41: Sam's Reflections on Starting Over (Pt 2)

In the second part of our conversation about Sam's Mormon deconstruction, we dive into her emotional journey leaving Utah and the church. In conversation, we explore:

- The powerful moment of driving away from Utah and feeling unprecedented relief

- The unexpected grief that followed - not about leaving, but about staying so long

- The complicated process of deciding what beliefs and values to keep versus discard

- How to rebuild trust with yourself after leaving a high-demand religious environment

- Finding peace with being a "late bloomer" and embracing a more authentic life
