I'm back with a new season (yes I will continue to pretend every long break between episodes is on purpose) and this time I'm trying to treat some brand new symptoms and situations. I am basically both Moulder and Scully during any interaction with alternative medicinal practices, and acupuncture is no exception. See less

It's part two of my interview with ex-evangelical correspondent Gabby and ex-mormon correspondent Paul. We chat about losing your faith, literal demons, and the mental health pros and cons of religion.  Follow me on IG @sarah.jickling and subscribe to hear every episode!

Ex-Evangelical correspondent Gabby and Ex-Mormonism correspondent Paul chat about Gabby's experience of almost converting to Mormonism. I am mostly there to say things like "why is the devil so lame" and "Jesus did some bad things too."   Subscribe and follow me on instagram @sarah.jickling.  Theme song: Cautionary Tale by Sarah Jickling and her Good Bad Luck Transition song: Aspergers Messiah  by Greg McLeod

In this episode, I pretend that my mental breakdown was actually just a break between season 1 and season 2. I also destroy the Love Languages to the best of my ability and take a look into the homophobe who invented them. Happy to be back, friends! 

Ex-Evangelical correspondent Gabby remembers her time in Freedom Sessions, a sort of 12-Step Program for Evangelical "sinners" a.k.a. basically anyone. Digressions include magic mushrooms, psychosis, and why you should always pray with the door open in mixed company. Follow me online at sarah.jickling and at getwellsoonerpod on IG.

This episode includes me believing in astrology, me not believing in astrology, and a BuzzFeed quiz reinforcing my kind-of, sort-of belief in astrology, which is of course not real. Do I believe in astrology? Me, a bisexual millennial artist? Listen and find out! (wow, very bossy, what an aries)  Follow me on Instagram and let me know what you want to hear from me or if you have any weird wellness things you want me to try! @getwellsoonerpod and @sarah.jickling

Paul and I continue our talk about the LDS (aka Mormon) Word of Wisdom. No coffee (probably), no alcohol (maybe), and other restrictions create a perfect environment for obsession and perhaps addiction. If you haven't listened to the first part of the conversation go back one episode!  Please tell your friends if you like this podcast, and/or pray for me. I will also accept good vibes and monetary donations. 

Paul is back to talk about mormonism and this time we are chatting about hot drinks! Mormons are not allowed to drink coffee or tea but it's a complicated rule that has changed over the past 150 years. We talk about drive-throughs for soft drinks, whether or not diet coke is allowed in Mormonism, and who you can visit in sad heaven. This episode is especially for our friend Amelia who is extremely amazing and we are thinking about her. Follow me on Instagram and make sure you subscribe to the podcast. 

UPDATE- I previously released this episode without any sound. It was just the theme song and then silence. My brain withdrawing from benzos and I forgot to give it a quick listen before I posted it. But here are my thoughts on more bad advice from therapists that I've collected, with more than a few digressions along the way. Therapists are not always right. They are not always wrong either, but when they are, terrible things can happen. Email me your therapy horror stories at [email protected]. 

My friend of over 20 years chats with me about her spiritual journey from a little Christian girl at Jesus Camp to flirting with Mormonism to seminary school to a totally new view of the world.
