i’m glad you’re here
Let's talk about faith and spirituality after rigid traditionalism.
I’m Alycia, and I write about feminist spirituality, evolving faith, monasteries, Mother God, post-patriarchal Christianity, and other topics that might have people praying for you.
Sign up for my yearlong Feminine Spirituality for Christian Women email series, and you’ll receive weekly reads that connect you to the Sacred Feminine within the tradition.

We all have a thread.
One that spins our lives into a storyline worth telling. For me, that thread weaves stories of failure and joy and spiritual seeking, and the presence of the church within this fabric is undeniable. It’s woven in layers of pain, safety, and questioning, but that thread has never stopped spinning.
I couldn’t leave the church behind, it has too much to offer. It is the language I speak, and I treasure the depth of the ancient tradition. And so I’ve started to unearth my stories to examine and integrate them. My hope is that these words will help you do the same.

There are two voices, Shame and Soul, the person we learned to be and then who we are. They surface in suffering, and this is how they sound.
