Summary
Religious trauma is real abuse and it's time we stop letting it get minimized.
In this episode, Elise and Kari sit down for a candid conversation about the deep and lasting impact of religious trauma, why it maps almost perfectly onto CPTSD, and how the church runs the same narcissistic abuse cycle that keeps survivors stuck, confused, and doubting themselves for years.
They get into:
- Why religious trauma is still minimized
- Religious Trauma Syndrome and how its symptoms overlap with Complex PTSD
- The four stages of the narcissistic abuse cycle and how churches use every single one of them
- Confession culture used as surveillance and control
- How purity culture and shame disconnects you from your body
- The weaponization of forgiveness against survivors
- How religious gaslighting gets installed before you're old enough to question it
- Why anger is the key to leaving abusive situations (and why the church suppressed it on purpose)
- What actually helps: IFS therapy, somatic work, body-based healing, and learning to trust yourself again
