Leaving Religion: a Guide

by Amanda Joy Loveland

Formally titled Leaving Religion & Those We Leave Behind. This podcast is a guide to navigating the waters after religion and how to find your spiritual center. Each episode is full of stories, including mine, of leaving religion, our experiences through it and the gifts gained. My desire is to assist others in having a deeper understand to their path and that leaving does not have to be full of anger and hatred. This podcast is not about bashing any religion or people but is about our stories of moving through the different stages of grief and ultimately having a stronger relationship to themselves and with God. My hope is that as you listen you will feel a sense of peace, of inspiration, of connection and a place to feel that you are not alone in your journey.This podcast has been something I did not think I would ever do and yet it has been one of the biggest gifts in my life. May you find a little piece of hope here within these interviews. These podcast episodes will assist you in your deconstruction after religion.
