Linda Kay Klein: Is my body bad? A conversation about purity culture.

January 06, 2021 • Kara Elise • Season 2 • Episode 1

Welcome back to season 2 friends!

First things first! I've got a new program that just launched called EMBODY circles. These small and intimate circles of women are aimed to give you the tools and empower you to reconnect to your body and create space for healthy relationships! I've got a couple spots left and you can find more info at bykaraelise.teachable.com

On this episode, I sit down with Linda Kay Klein, an author, speaker, coach + social activist to talk about Purity Culture! Linda wrote PURE: Inside the Evangelical Movement That Shamed a Generation of Young Women and How I Broke Free, which is a book that has helped so many unpack the shame that came with growing up in purity culture.

On this episode, we talk about the underlying belief that permeates purity culture (the body is bad) and we talk about both the history and longstanding affects that came with the purity movement. Our conversation centers around the polarity caused by this belief system and ways that we can more holistically and healthfully view our sexuality and live as embodied people.
