In this episode I sit down with Chelsea Bea, the host of the "Beyond the Picket Fence" podcast. Our conversation starts with Chelsea's experiences growing up as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) in a loving family and church community. We then delve into the topic of purity culture and how it impacted Chelsea's life, leading to feelings of shame and experience needing to repent.
Chelsea shares her struggles as a newly married woman and how she navigated the complexities of married life while still trying to figure out her own identity. While building her family, Chelsea recounts the traumatic experience of almost losing her son to a heart complication. Through this experience, Chelsea gained a new perspective on life and the realization that there is often much more going on beyond the idyllic image of the perfect family.
Throughout the episode,we touch on important topics like faith, shame, and trauma, and how these experiences shape who we are as individuals. Listeners will be inspired by Chelsea's honesty and vulnerability as she shares her story, and will come away with a greater appreciation for the complexity of family life beyond the picket fence.
