Summary

Bethanie and Anthony have a sitdown with Hayley Rawle, the host of Girlscamp Podcast, to talk all things Mormon and her life since leaving the Mormon Church. How was her childhood experience growing up in the Mormon Church, when did she start questioning her faith and those around her, and what led her to make that decision to leave the Mormon church. Hayley also talks about starting her podcast about Post-Mormonism life, the stories she's heard from others who've left, and how she navigates her relationship with her family who are still Mormon.
