As Charli XCX knows, being a girl can be so confusing—especially for a post-Mormon! Around the campfire today, we're chatting about grieving identity after a faith transition, a stake president who needs to grow up and learn some social skills, and why I haven't officially removed my records from the church yet. 

I also respond to submissions about: 

- How difficult it feels not to proselytize post-Mormonism after leaving

- Saying no to family members about attending church events

- Another common misconception about ex-Mormons- that we leave because we can't live in nuanced spaces

- If it's ethical to lie to Mormon parents about queerness

- A brainwashed missionary brother
