I pay my respects to elders past, present, and emerging who are helping their community recover from religious trauma due to the forced removal of Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander children, often facilitated by religious leaders of the day. I also want to thank my Aboriginal clients for sharing your stories with me. Each of you has reminded me how freedom is fundamental for people to thrive in this life. Your stories have helped shape my practice.In this episode Anji Barker and I discuss the themes of faith deconstruction, coercive control in churches and leading with compassion. Please note, I interviewed Anji back in Feb this year so Anji has done a lot since then including finishing up in her role at Newbigin Community Trust.
