b'This week\\u2019s guest is artist Stephanie Stalvey. You can see her full bio here. She is the artist behind Instagram\\u2019s @stephanie.stalvey.artist.

Stephanie was a \\u201c90\\u2019s church kid\\u201d attending various evangelical churches when she was young. She took her beliefs seriously, and it wasn\\u2019t until her twenties that a sudden loss forced her to question whether life was as simple as she\\u2019d been taught.

When Stephanie became a mother, she truly left fundamentalist religion. \\u201cI needed to let God expand into whatever God might be."

Now she lives without a label, allowing her values and beliefs about humanity and divinity to change as she changes.

Her art speaks to those of us who\\u2019ve left religion, reminding us that \\u201c\\u2026we are, in our hearts and in our inner essence, good and pure and sacred and not depraved.\\u201d
