Dive into an eye-opening interview with Jonathan, who shares his transformative journey from being a lifelong member of the LDS Church to navigating the complex aftermath of leaving. After his departure, Jonathan faced severe addiction and sought rehab treatment. His story takes an unexpected turn when he recognizes the manipulation techniques he learned within the church affecting his personal relationships.

Discover how Jonathan's self-awareness led him to acknowledge his narcissistic tendencies, developed as a shield against shame, and how this realization ultimately cost him a significant relationship. Now, Jonathan is on a mission to educate and heal, particularly focusing on how men can better understand and respect women's perspectives within and beyond the church.

In this candid conversation, Jonathan also reflects on his relationship with his father, a faithful LDS member, who despite following the church's guidelines, passed away unfulfilled. This video is not just Jonathan's story; it's a call to action for empathy, understanding, and personal growth.
