Join us in a heartfelt dialogue with author Debra Peck, who shares her personal battle with Religious Scrupulosity—a lesser-known facet of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder that often goes unnoticed within religious circles. Debra's eye-opening journey to self-discovery and healing has led her to pen "The Hijacked Conscience: An Informed and Compassionate Response to Religious Scrupulosity," written for anyone entrenched in faith, particularly leaders and pastors who may unknowingly exacerbate this hidden struggle.
In this episode, Debra sheds light on how Religious Scrupulosity can transform faith from a liberating force to an oppressive weight, and how her book aims to lift that burden, offering solace and understanding. Whether you're a devout believer, a church leader, or someone navigating the complexities of faith and mental health, Debra's story is a beacon of hope and a call for a more informed and empathetic approach to spirituality. Tune in for an enlightening discussion that could change the way you view faith, freedom, and the path to joy. Listen now to uncover the hidden threads between devotion and disorder.
