Podcast Overview

Some changes don't announce themselves. They start as a quiet discomfort — a belief that no longer fits, a room full of people you love but can no longer be fully honest with, a version of yourself you've outgrown but don't yet have permission to leave behind. Matt Salmon is a psychiatrist who survived conversion therapy, left his faith, and walked away from medical orthodoxy. He knows what change costs. Each episode is a conversation with someone who paid that cost — a community, a family, a God, an identity. People still reckoning with what they lost and who they are now.
