Trauma & Tribulation

A podcast co-hosted by Ryley & Willow

DECONSTRUCTING JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES

Ryley (He/Him), is an ex- Jehovah’s Witness who grew up in “The Truth” from 1997 to 2016. With humor and a touch of strife, he breaks down the doomsday cult he was born into from his 3rd generation perspective to his best friend Willow (She/Her). Explaining the history, structure, culture, and its abundance of issues within the closed organization while finally untangling himself of the religious trauma fearing the great tribulation for eighteen years caused with every episode.
