Super relatable shit like how we met in Bible College, were both Pastors in a conservative evangelical pentecostal denomination, and how we each deconstructed from that worldview.We learn about Val's passion for therapy, cracking the perfect joke while playing pickleball, and her long term marriage to a talented, hilarious, brazilian businessman named Rafick. Val (she/her) is deeply wise, warm and candid as she shares about their journey to make peace with childlessness.We also learn about Kat's choice to end a long term marriage to the father of her two kids, then discovering she is in fact, gay as hell.
