This episode is adapted from the 30 Days of Courage LIVE event in October 2022.

Chrissy Stroop is the co-editor (with Lauren O'Neal) of "Empty the Pews: Stories of Leaving the Church," which highlights the stories of survivors leaving toxic religious environments.

Chrissy has leveraged the power of story by being published in national magazines, news outlets, and peer-reviewed journals, but she is perhaps most known in the survivor community for her viral social media hashtags that highlight survivor stories and gain the attention of the press and media.

As a transgender woman, Chrissy's talk will discuss the power of story. How stories can help us heal, inspire us to change, and move our communities towards action.
