  • Sacred Scars: When the Hand That Feeds Also Hurts
    May 20 2025

    In this powerful and emotional episode, we welcome Dave, a popular TikTok content creator, as he shares his raw and inspirational life story. Raised Baptist by a preacher father, Dave recounts his childhood filled with religious zeal, parental neglect, and severe abuse, including molestation by a man living in his home. Despite these hardships, Dave's resilience shines through as he navigates his complex relationship with faith, which ultimately led him from Christianity to becoming an outspoken atheist. He also discusses his ongoing work in the religious trauma community online, particularly through TikTok, where he helps others who have suffered similar fates. This episode is a deep dive into how one man's traumatic past has fueled his mission to advocate for others and shed light on the darker side of religious institutions.
