About this listen
Pray harder.
In a sleepy Canberra suburb, Bek Condello was raised in the Geelong Revival Centre, a strict patriarchal Pentecostal movement. The influence of the GRC extended deeply into the lives of the congregation, promoting discipline, dictating what girls and women wore, who they socialised with and ultimately, who they would marry.
After moving states to marry her approved husband and enduring a tumultuous marriage, Bek Condello made the courageous decision to start her life again. Anyone who leaves the GRC is cut off, from family, identity, history.
Can You Handle A Girl Like Me? chronicles Bek's journey through both challenging and transformative experiences. She bravely shares her experiences of finding friends and going on her first real dates in her thirties. With no experience of equal human relationships, Bek is rebuffed and exploited.
Through embracing healing and self-empowerment, she is now embarking on a second life of adventure and joy.
