Welcome to the seventh episode of the Steem Sister Show!
Your hosts are @coruscate and @maryjaney. We are two sisters using the Steem blockchain to chat about our life experiences and provide a little entertainment value to the Steemit Community.
Topic of this Episode – Religion and Spirituality – PART ONE
This week, we are going a little deeper to talk about our experiences with religion and spirituality. We have decided to make this a two part episode because it is such a RICH topic – that it didn’t seem possible to condense it into 20 minutes.
In part one, we dive more into our religious background and then in part two we will talk about our spiritual journey’s and where we are right now. We grew up in a really radical, almost cult-like church, and so in this episode we unpack a lot of how that affected us growing up and even share some really crazy stories that might surprise you guys.
Instead of spending the entire episode on questions, we spend the first half just telling stories and sharing some of our history. Then at the end, we answer a few questions from listeners.
Here is a list of audience questions covered in today’s episode:
- Audience question from @dnews – Do you believe in coincidence, or divine intervention?
- Audience question from @goldmatters – Have you ever had to deal with a conflicting religious or spiritual belief with a close friend or significant other?
- Audience question from @thinkinglbt – How does spiritual exploration shape your world view?
What is the Steem Sister Show All About?
We aim to bring more “non-crypto” related content to the Steem Blockchain. Although there is nothing wrong with this kind of content (@corsucate even posts on crypto related material sometimes) – we want to help create a better onboarding experience for new users. We talk a lot about attracting new users to the platform – but if the trending page is filled with crypto posts and flagging wars, they are likely to lose interest quickly.
We hope that by creating content that is more similar to what they are used to seeing on other social media sites – they will feel more excited about being here and creating content of their own!
How Does It Work?
We pick a different topic every episode, and then throw totally random questions about that topic in a hat and go back and forth. We always have a mix of our own questions and some audience questions. Our rule is that we cannot tell each other our answers before filming! So you guys are getting our raw, unfiltered reactions here.
Every week we announce the next week’s topic so people can submit questions.

Next Week’s Topic : Music
Music is such a big passion for both of us, that we thought it would be fun to dive into our history with music, what instruments we play, what instruments we want to learn, our experiences performing on stage – and much more. I imagine there will be a few crazy piano lesson stories in there!
The music episode will air one week from today.
If you have any questions regarding the topic of MUSIC – please shoot them below! If we answer your question next week – we will send you 2 SBD!
That’s a Wrap!
We hope you enjoyed watching Part 1 of our Spirituality and Religion Episode. We certainly had a fun time filming it and bringing up some crazy memories.
Thanks for watching and we’ll see you guys for Part 2 later in the week. We look forward to delving into what our journeys have looked like in recent years and how we would describe our relationship with spirituality and religion today.
