Ivy Nelson is an author, BDSM constituent, and my former debate team member from our college days at UAM in Monticello, Arkansas.
For the vast majority of her life, she was also heavily involved in the Pentecostal church.
In this episode, Ivy details her upbringing within the church, the influences (both positive and negative) the faith had on her life, and how she bridges the gap between the way she was raised, and her current career as a romance novelist and BDSM community member.
