About this listen
What does it truly take to break free from the constraints of your upbringing and claim your authentic identity? In this raw and enlightening conversation, I sit down with Leah Roberts, founder of Copper Content Collective, who shares her remarkable journey from a strictly controlled religious childhood to becoming a free-thinking, self-aware individual.
Leah opens up about growing up in a restrictive non-denominational Christian household in Las Vegas, where Bible reading was used as punishment and self-expression was severely limited. With remarkable candor, she discusses overcoming trauma and abuse without adopting a victim mentality—a perspective that offers listeners a powerful example of resilience and personal agency.
The conversation takes fascinating turns as we explore how Leah's "leap" into critical thinking began around age 22-23 when she embraced yoga, meditation, and eventually veganism. These practices provided the framework for deeper self-connection and healing. What's particularly striking is Leah's nuanced approach to spirituality—rejecting dogmatic structures while embracing elements of Buddhism as a philosophy for becoming "the best possible version of myself."
