Mourning a Parent
I was able to access this course early, as someone who has known Britt for years and followed her work. My dad died 10 years ago and at the time I had a lot of faith platitudes that kept me going. No one taught me how to grieve before. This course helped me to accept feelings of grief, to mourn, and to reframe my fear of death. Facing death without tools was terrifying, and the "Death" section helped give me new tools.

Dark Night of the Soul
After I lost faith in God I had a lot of dark thoughts about whether or not it was worth it. I went to therapy but my therapists were quick to want to move on from the "cult" I was raised in and didn't understand why it affected me so much. Listening to these videos helped give words to my feelings. It helped me feel hope and like I was not alone. I began to piece myself back together and even though I have more work to do I can honestly say now that it was worth the pain to go through.

Christmas
I reached out to Britt because I was having anxiety around Christmas coming up. I didn't know if I should throw it all away or not. I love the music but I also experienced intense negative feelings around them. Working through the rituals workbook helped me to feel connected to my family without sacrificing my authenticity. Now I can enjoy religious holidays again without feeling split in two.
