Season 3 Episode 1: Sofia Olson

"Is it possible for Christians to hold their religious belief that God does not affirm same sex marriage and also support the rights, safety and dignity of LGBTQ people?" This is the critical question that Sofia Olson ('97) posed to her Christian friends on FB as a sort of experiment to see what responses would emerge. We unpack this and more in our first episode of Season 3. (Note: we recorded this episode last year (July 2021) and had shelved it to finish Season 2) We start off the conversation learning about Sofia's Seattle goats (!), and later on her transformations after leaving CAJ: coming out when she was 23, learning more about systemic racism and sexism via an interest in development work, and recognizing the particular brand of hubris-wrapped-in-humility that is so common in Evangelical Christian culture.  To learn more about Sofia's Internal Family Systems coaching work, check out her website: https://sofiaolsoncoaching.com Listen on Apple Podcasts Spotify Stitcher Google Podcasts
