When my father hit me, he told me it was because he loved me so much and that it was his role as my father to guide me to become a better person. Spanking began with a wooden spoon that would often break in half against me, then it graduated over the years to belts and wire fly swatters and hands. Any flinching or movement or cry would signify my defiance and mean he’d have to hit me longer and harder to make me submissive.

When the legal system got involved, he switched to “discipline” that wouldn’t leave evidence. Strange exercises that “were good for me.” Balance on the edge of a bathtub for 11 minutes without moving to strengthen me. Ingest expired foods or chemicals to toughen me up. Duct tape over my eyes to make me appreciate the privilege of vision. Anything to make my body do things it wasn’t meant to do because I needed to learn submission.

I never became more submissive but I did learn to dissociate. I learned my body wasn’t mine and is the property of men. I learned touch was dangerous. I learned giving my body to anyone in any way was a loss of control and would lead to pain.

It wasn’t until I had children and I couldn’t not touch them, I couldn’t not kiss their faces all over, I couldn’t not hold them every day and night, and fall in love with the feeling of their little hands on me…that I realized touch could be safe again. I’m still learning how to allow touch with adults, with my wife, with people I know are safe in my head but my body only remembers fear.

I’m so proud of myself and the work I’ve done and will continue to do that I get to raise daughters who will only know the version of me that loves their touch, and who will only know my touch to be loving.

And to think that I grew up in a cult that told me family could only be a man and his subservient wife and their 2.5 children. Turns out family can be so much more 🌈❤️ Q***r families for the win 🥹

PS: my book about healing from religious trauma comes out in August and will share more about our life and back story together 🥰 stay tuned!

At Ava’s 3 year old check up, we were introduced to the possibility that Ava might be on the autism spectrum. Today we began the process of evaluations through the school district’s early detection and support program called Child Find, which quickly gave us beginning confirmation that everything we’ve been seeing is valid. Grateful for all the resources and support we have around us as we adjust to this new normal and navigate forward with love and embracing everything unique and special and perfect that makes Ava who she is ❤️ She’s such an incredible kid and I’m looking forward to learning more about her every day 🫶

Everytime she sees me smiling in the mirror or taking a selfie, she also looks at herself in the mirror and tells me i look so beautiful and how she is also so beautiful, and I don’t hear the religious trauma voice in the back of my head whispering “don’t be vain, don’t be self obsessed, only show humility and subservience, don’t be perceived or take attention,” because now all I hear is a little girl who watched their mother actively love herself and learned to love herself too because of it.
