Hot Take: Deconstruction is NOT the Destination

When you go through a faith transition like deconstruction, one of the most universally unsettling experiences that no one talks about is when you lose jargon that at one point was so comforting to you. What do you say when you can't say those things anymore? Why are those phrases so engrained in us? Why do they make us feel better? And what do we do and say now? Join us as Becka and Amber share about navigating these strange shifts and share what helps them make sense of it all and move forward to find new ways of expressing care and concern.   Your hosts: @beckarobinson @amberhumphries  @pronetowonderco  If you are enjoying our content please share it with a friend and leave a positive review so that others who are looking for community during deconstructing can find it.

"I'm Praying For You" - Why We Impulsively Say it and What To Say Instead 

We're back with a special conversation you asked us for- How do we navigate modesty and sex positivity in parenting? For those of us that are reclaiming our own spiritual and sexual autonomy after a deconstruction or faith transition it can feel overwhelming trying to parent young people through a stage of life we don't have a model of parenting for or that we are just now figuring out for ourselves since we were not allowed to when we were younger. If you've felt the tension of this situation, we hope that this conversation makes you feel less alone and leaves you with a feeling of hope that you're already doing a great job just by caring about getting better at this.

Surviving Purity Culture - Modesty and Sex Positivity in Parenting

BONUS EPISODE: In this week's bonus episode, we share a conversation we had one day about our experiences wrestling with the concept of absolute truth. Certainty is such a foundational aspect of the faith we both have transitioned from and it can feel very shaky and unsettling to navigate the spaces left when we remove certainty from our spiritual experience and settle into new ways of thinking and feeling.

Does Absolute Truth Exist?

In this BONUS episode we tackle a common struggle: how to unpack all the black and white thinking we were trained into during our time growing up in the church and how dangerous that type of thinking can be towards our communities, our relationships, and to ourselves. *TW* We bring up the topic of reproductive rights and abortion as it relates to black and white thinking In this episode Amber shares how this has been a big part of her journey recently and how she's found old black and white mentalities popping up in her life and the work she is doing to heal and reclaim shades of gray and nuance in the way she views herself and the world around her. We share some of the resources that have helped both of us do the inner work and spot the sneaky ways this old programming pops up. Some of those recourses mentioned include: The Happy Whole Way account on instagram - @happywholeway Lacey Phillips and To Be Magnetic - www.tobemagnetic.com The book, The Dark Side of the Light Chasers by Debbie Ford Your hosts: Amber Humphries @amberhumphries Becka Robinson @beckarobinson Send us your thoughts, questions, comments to www.askptw.com Follow us on IG @pronetowonderco If you enjoyed this episode please share it with a friend, post your favorite quotes and tag us on social or leave a positive review so others who are on their own journey of deconstruction and faith transitions can find us.

Black and White Thinking and Shadow Work

Today, we are pulling back the curtain an experience many of us deal with during and after faith transitions and that is navigating overwhelming feelings of doubt and grief. Did we make a mistake? Did we ruin our lives? Are we going straight to hell? How do we navigate missing something that we know isn't healthy or aligned for us right now? Are these feelings normal or a red flag?  If you've struggled with these during your deconstruction, listen in as Amber shares how she's feeling after her last Sunday on staff for music ministry and Becka shares her experience of overcoming the awkward transition to living in a completely different way than she was used to. In this episode we share insights, tips, and give you some encouragement to help you navigate the complex emotions you might be experiencing.

Reclaiming Sex - Surviving Purity Culture's Long Term Effects with Special Guests: Our Husbands! (NSFW)

In this 18+ episode, we tackle an important question sent in from a listener about how do we even begin to explore and reclaim our sexuality when we are single or deconstructing at a different pace from our current partner? This topic is so important to us because for anyone who grew up in a shame-based belief system around sexuality, it can be very scary to begin to break those thought patterns and learn how to express yourself in a sex-positive way. In this episode we share one of Becka's biggest AHA moments that helped us feel brave and more free along with some other insights from our own journey and practical resources to help you as you begin to take this back for yourself. Please let us know your thoughts after the episode by sending us your questions or comments to www.askptw.com and if you find this season helpful, tag us on social media as you're listening @pronetowonderco and leave us a positive review so others who are wondering can find us too!   We need your help to build this incredible community and we are so grateful to have these conversations about deconstructing and reclaiming with you. **This episode contains adult conversations about sexuality and is not for younger ears**   Your hosts: Amber Humphries @amberhumphries  Becka Robinson @beckarobinson  Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/prone-to-wonder/message Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/prone-to-wonder/message

How to Begin Reclaiming Sexuality Free From Shame - Bonus Replay

Vanessa Fernandez

In today's episode our founding member Vanessa Fernandez rejoins us to discuss the topic of embodiment. This word has become a bit of a buzzword in the deconstruction and spiritual awakening spaces as well as in trauma healing but what does it even mean? What does embodiment look like? And what are some basics to what it feels like to be more embodied and how do you even get yourself there? If you've been wondering about embodiment and how you might start to implement it in your own journey, listen in and let us know your thoughts after!

An Introduction to Embodiment with Vanessa Fernandez

Surprise! We are kicking off season three with a bonus episode right at the start! We thought it would be helpful to share more about our specific brand of religious backgrounds. We know religious trauma and the complexities of deconstructing come in a wide range of experiences so we wanted to dig a little deeper into where we came from so you can get to know us better, and hopefully understand our perspectives more as well as feel less alone if you had a similar upbringing. We'd love to hear from you after. Send us a text or voice message to www.askptw.com and let us know if you share any of our childhood memories or what your own special blend of upbringing was that you are deconstructing from. We'd love to connect!  And tune in next week for our next full episode with a very special guest we know you will be thrilled to hear from!  www.pronetowonderco.com instagram.com/pronetowonderco instagram.com/amberhumphries instagram.com/beckarobinson  ---   Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/prone-to-wonder/message

Tent Revivals and the Holy Spirit: Answering questions about our backgrounds

Welcome to Prone to Wonder, a podcast where no questions are off limits. Join us (Amber Humphries and Becka Robinson), each week as best friends, women, and ex-ministry junkies navigate conversations about deconstruction, reconstruction, growth, and wondering aloud about all the things we weren’t supposed to wonder. Having different perspectives, these conversations aren’t about having all the answers, but giving yourself permission to ask questions and forge your own path.

Welcome to season three! We're back and wondering more than ever! In today's episode we lay the foundation for our season three theme by talking about the act of Reclamation in a deconstruction journey and how the act of taking things back (both big and small) can help to move us forward after deconstructing our faith. Listen in to hear how this came up, the big and small things that started our reclamations, and a challenge to you to carry you into the upcoming week!   Join the conversation by sending us your thoughts at www.askp2w.com and let us know what big or small things you have reclaimed or would like to work on reclaiming. Has this come up in your journey yet? What stage of the process are you at? We want to hear it all!   If you want to support us this season, please subscribe and leave a review. We'd also love if you shared this episode on social media and let us know your favorite parts or send it to a friend who is going through their own journey and might need a little encouragement.

What To Expect From Season 3

As a follow up to our Thanksgiving episode on going home for the holidays while deconstructing, we are back with another chat about navigating the holidays while or after deconstructing. In this week's episode Becka shares about how she has slowly reclaimed holiday rituals and built a deeply meaningful set of family traditions that are outside of religion for herself and her family. Amber shares how she is doing during her first Christmas season that feels different, and both hosts share about the core values of the season that feel the most important to them that they are focusing on this holiday season. If you have been dealing with sadness or grief around Christmas and how to celebrate it when you feel disconnected from the nativity story or rituals of your childhood, we hope this episode is a light for you to begin navigating your way through and to give you hope that you can find deeply beautiful ways to celebrate that make you excited for the season!  The Two Free Holiday Support Offerings we have:  Vanessa's Advent Series - RSVP here Becka's Reclaiming Rituals Winter Solstice Series - RSVP here Send us your thoughts, questions, and wonderings about this episode via text or voice message at askptw.com. We will be sharing wonderings from our listeners this season in future episodes and we'd love to hear your stories and thoughts.  Also please take a moment if you are enjoying this podcast and leave us a positive review and share an episode with a friend.

THANKSGIVING BONUS: Holiday Spiritual Support For You!

In this week's episode, we are talking about the elephant in the room: going home for the holidays. In every deconstruction community we are in and in our own coaching practices we hear it almost unanimously that people are nervous, stressed out, and feeling sadness about the impending family time over the holiday season. We knew we wanted to talk about this because it's been true for each of us, it is something we have found ways to heal but also that we still can struggle with. We hope this conversation gives you permission to enjoy your holidays, set boundaries, and navigate the messy situations that might arise. Just remember now matter what, you're going to be okay, you WILL find ways to make the holidays beautiful and special for yourself through trial and error, and you have people who understand what you're going through right here in this little podcast family.  Listen in and let us know your thoughts, stories and wonderings as well for our response episode next week.

How To Handle Going Home For The Holidays While Deconstructing

In this week's COFFEE CHAT episode, in which we share a question or comment from one of you and then have a casual round table conversation about it, we are talking about MODESTY. We share a question from a listener about modesty and how our deconstruction of modesty has or has not changed our relationship to our bodies. What an incredible question! We ran the gamut talking through this one because modesty is such a wide topic that covers more than just bodies and clothing (pun intended!)   In this episode...  How have our journeys deconstructing from the American Christian idea of modesty impacted our relationships to our bodies? How Becka reframed sensuality to reclaim it Size discrimination in purity culture and other confusing, unspoken modesty rules  How purity culture's stance on modesty affected Vanessa's self image as a young girl and how it perpetuates self loathing for women  Child birth and fitness as moments of reclamation and power  The danger of modesty policing The divine feminine and what it means to us  How modesty bleeds into ALL aspects of how women take up space in the world And more!    Links from the episode...
