Levi Strasser- Growing Up Mormon & Gay (PT 1)

Levi Strasser, who is he? Why did I choose to have him on the podcast? 
Not only an incredibly dear friend of mine, he just filmed a documentary "Moved By Love" premiering at Sundance Next Year where he talks about his life growing up in the Mormon church, being gay, conversion therapy & so much more.

In this PT 1 of 3 series- Levi gives us a better understanding of the Mormon religion/beliefs. What his childhood was like growing up religious & when he first initially knew he was gay. He explains the struggles he went through fighting the idea of him being gay while also being a devoted Mormon. He tells his coming out story & the shunning that went along with it from people close to him. The rebelling he then played into which then led him to run back to the church for his repentance journey which ultimately led to a church mission & conversion therapy. 

This will be an incredibly heavy series & I want to preface there are trigger warnings for these episodes. 
I hope you find his story profound as I did.
