  161. Bullying Is More Common—and More Damaging—Than We Admit

  Sep 17, 202615 min

  This is the third episode in my new season, and I’m going to read another editorial. I’m writing on topics that are important to me, so I want them to be part of this podcast too. This one was in the Salt Lake Tribune and titled: Workplace Bullying Is More Common—and More Damaging—Than We Admit. I do think there are applications to our congregations, communities, and homes. This is very personal to me, as I share some of my own recent experiences. Anywhere there is power, there is the potential for misuse of power. I share connections to our faith in this as well. Here is the Tribune article link: Voices: Workplace bullying is more widespread than we think

  160. Why Utah’s Passive‑Aggressive Culture Hurts Us More Than We Think

  Sep 10, 202616 min

  This one absolutely applies to religious context, and I hope you'll appreciate it. I think women are socialized to do this more than men. I recently published an editorial in the Deseret News titled: Why Utah’s Passive‑Aggressive Culture Hurts Us More Than We Think. I’m going to read it to you and then make a bunch of comments. I give you lots of examples in the editorial itself and then expand with my comments. I hope you'll listen in! Article: Passive aggression has a simple antidote | Opinion – Deseret News

  Why 159. Ethical Grounding Still Matters in a World That Feels Upside Down

  Sep 3, 202613 min

  In this episode, I turn to an editorial I published in June in the Utah News Dispatch—a piece that speaks directly to the lived experience of Latter‑day Saint women. We are disciples of Jesus Christ, and our discipleship requires ethical steadiness, moral courage, and the willingness to speak truth with love. As I read the editorial, I’ll pause after some chunks to share the spiritual impressions and gospel‑centered reflections that feel important for covenant women today.

  158. Why Moral Clarity Still Matters

  Aug 27, 202613 minS4

  After a refreshing summer break, I’m back and ready to launch Season Four of Unleashing Sister Saints. And I’m starting this season with an episode centered around an editorial I published in June in the Deseret News titled “Why Moral Clarity Still Matters.” I’ve felt strongly—especially in recent months—that Latter‑day Saint women (and men) are called to stay deeply ethical, rooted in moral values, and willing to speak up and speak out with courage. This episode is my invitation for all of us to reclaim that clarity and use it to strengthen our discipleship. In this show I’ll begin by reading the editorial and then I’ll share some of the thoughts and impressions as I revisit the message with fresh eyes and a gospel lens. Welcome back!

  157. Building Faith Communities Where Women Can Find Safety, Support, & Belonging

  Jun 4, 202621 minS0

  <p>As I wrap up for the summer, I talk about a research study I'm conducting (with the help of a qualitative research team) titled "Building Faith Communities Where Women in Crisis Find Safety, Support, and Belonging. I thought you would be interested in this. </p><p>The purpose of this in-depth qualitative study is to examine how faith communities influence the experiences of women who are navigating crisis, including sexual assault, domestic violence, and divorce. Specifically, the study seeks to identify the congregational characteristics, cultural norms, leadership practices, and theological messages that function as protective factors—and, conversely, risk fa...
