S3 E7: When A Church Kid Realizes They're Being Manipulated (w/Aleah Policar)

This week on the podcast, I am joined by Aleah Policar, a fellow church kid from my childhood church organization, to discuss the many different ways emotional manipulation and shame were used by her church and its leaders as a response to her not fitting the mold they needed her to. The conversation in this episode is inspired by the topics and themes of my book "A Jumble of Crumpled Papers".   The Crumpled Papers Podcast now has a Patreon!  https://patreon.com/CrumpledPapersPodcast?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=join_link    Get your copy of “A Jumble of Crumpled Papers” here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BCD5PMX5/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?ie=UTF8&qid=&sr=      Connect with us!
