Description

Have you ever wondered what conversion therapy really feels like from the inside? Hit follow now and get ready for one of the most powerful episodes Hot Air has ever done.

In our previous episode, we broke down the history of conversion therapy, the religious roots, and how LGBTQ+ identities have been controlled, erased, and manipulated through theology and practice. But today, we step aside and let survivors speak for themselves.

This full-length episode shares real excerpts, blog posts, memoir passages, essays, personal journals, and public writings from people who survived LGBTQ+ conversion therapy, religious abuse, and identity suppression. You’ll also hear stories from LGBTQ+ affirming clergy and progressive faith leaders who challenge the narrative and offer a different version of spirituality—one built on affirmation and liberation, not fear.

Through every page, every voice, and every lived experience, this episode shines a light on the courage it takes not only to survive but to reclaim your identity after systems meant to erase you. These are the raw, unedited truths behind the statistics and summaries.
