HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!

In this episode of the Jess and Jill podcast we share our experiences growing up in purity culture. From purity banquets to protecting our virtues to disentangling the harmful rhetoric forced upon young girls, we share our un-professional opinions. We discuss the inappropriateness of taking vows of anything at a young age and the complexities of having conversations with young people.

In the season 2 opener of the Jess and Jill podcast we discuss the things we are leaving behind.

This is not a girl's guide to leaving things behind but hopefully some of our personal reflection can encourage some of you where you are at.
