TW: This episode includes discussion of sexual assault and substance use.
In “Survivor,” Dr. Trevor Hoppe opens by sharing his own experience as a sexual assault survivor and reflecting on his struggle to come to terms with that word. Then guest host Sister T’Aint a Virgin interviews Sister Viva L’Amour of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence about growing up queer in San Francisco, sex education, sobriety, service, power, connection, and what it means to still be here. It’s funny, tender, filthy, and human.
This episode is part three in this season's three-part mentorship arc, with Sister T'Aint a Virgin interviewing her mentor, Sister Viva L'Amour.
