The Deconstructionists Ep. 234 - Dr. Cristy Carr "The Forgotten Self" pt. 1
đ§ Episode Summary
Who were you⊠before you were told who to be?
For many of usâespecially those shaped by religious systemsâidentity isnât something we discovered. Itâs something we inherited.
Beliefs. Roles. Expectations.
All layered over time until the line between who we are and who we were told to be becomes hard to see.
In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, we sit down with Cristy S. Carr to explore the core ideas behind her book The Forgotten Selfâand what it means to lose connection with ourselves in the pursuit of certainty, belonging, and faithfulness.
This episode is less about what we believeâŠ
and more about who weâve become in the process of believing.
