Join memoirist Laurie Lee Hall and Signature Books Director Barbara Jones Brown for this fascinating interview based on Laurie’s new memoir, Dictates of Conscience: From Mormon High Priest To My Life As A Woman.
Laurie’s growing-up years were defined by the conflict between her physical condition as a boy and her inherent identity as a girl. Unable to explain or resolve her gender dysphoria, she committed to living her adult life as a male. She joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and became chief architect of its temples, a stake president, and a parent of five children before she finally embraced her true identity and gradually transitioned to living full-time as a woman. Though she wanted to stay on as a church architect and a faithful church member, her stake president—and former counselor—excommunicated her following her gender transition. In this episode, Laurie shares her story and reads excerpts from her compelling new memoir.
