Ex-Mormon Comedian Michaela Chung: Faith, Divorce & Finding Herself After Leaving the LDS Church
Ex-Mormon stand-up comedian Michaela Chung opens up about her journey out of the LDS Church — from being baptized by a memorable Mormon missionary to navigating faith, identity, and life after Mormonism.
In this raw and funny conversation, Michaela breaks down how her comedy became a survival tool through deconstruction, what it’s like going through an LDS divorce, and whether she still believes in God after leaving the church that shaped her entire worldview.
We also dive into the tension between humor and healing, and how speaking openly about religion, relationships, and recovery can be both freeing and complicated.
If you’ve ever questioned your faith, left a high-demand religion, or rebuilt your life afterward — this one’s for you.
