Lurie Kimmerle joins Melissa on the mic for our Everyday Woman series. Over 7 years ago, Lurie walked away from her fundamentalist evangelical life and went on a mission to rebuild her spirituality outside of the patriarchal religion. Today, Lurie is a Feminist Coach that helps women reclaim their understanding of God through concepts rooted in feminist theology and erotic spirituality. Lurie Kimmerle is bringing forward the voices of the divine feminine through her community of Spiritually Wild Women, The Erotic Convent.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • Living the nomad life
  • Growing up in a fundamentalist evangelical home
  • Feeling called to the divine feminine at a young age
  • Understanding that God is love
  • The book of Song of Songs aka a steamy romance novel in the Bible
  • How/when religion became heavily patriarchal
  • Creating new paradigms that are liberating, not oppressive
  • The Erotic Convent
  • Sacred Mother’s Pilgrimage to Italy
  • The meaning of Sisterhood
