Description

In this episode of the Dan and Can Podcast, we explore how those of us who have deconstructed from fundamentalist religion may be uniquely equipped to help bridge the deepening political divide.We’ve lived on one side of the ideological spectrum — many of us were raised in conservative echo chambers — and we’ve also come out the other side, where we’ve heard the voices of the far left. And the truth is, both sides have toxic elements… but also, both sides hold real concerns that get lost in the shouting.In light of recent events, including the murder of Charlie Kirk, we're seeing both extremes retreat deeper into fear, blame, and dehumanization. This moment calls for people like us — people willing to hold tension, create space, and stay curious — to lead the way in humanizing one another again.It’s uncomfortable.It’s messy.But if you've done the work of deconstruction, you've already proven you're willing to face discomfort for the sake of truth.We believe this is the spiritual work of this time. Not to shame or silence others, but to hold the middle and invite nuance back into the conversation.Want to reprogram the subconscious beliefs that keep you stuck in survival mode or us-vs-them thinking?
