Finding Joy After Fundamentalism with Heather McGinley

Today, John speaks with Heather McGinley about the complexities of her relationship with her father, the weight of growing up in a large, tightly controlled family, and the delayed realizations of trauma that surfaced later in life. Heather shares how becoming a mother reshaped her understanding of consent, boundaries, and forgiveness — and how the isolation of the pandemic forced her to confront rock bottom.
