Spencer LaJoye: Finding Identity and Healing Through Music
“As a queer person, I have had to embrace curiosity for myself and about my body. Our culture has done a really good job of making queer people outcasts and threatened literally with their lives.”
Beth from the Safe Home Podcast sits down with Boston musician Spencer LaJoye, who identifies as non-binary. Spencer’s journey of self-discovery began in college when they came out as bisexual and later as non-binary, both within Christian communities. This episode dives into Spencer's life, touching on the challenges they faced, including body dysphoria and societal expectations. Music became a sanctuary for Spencer, and their song 'Plowshare Prayer' has resonated globally.
The song offers a unique prayer for those who've felt hurt by traditional religious practices. Spencer's story highlights the need for safe spaces where everyone can explore their identities freely. Tune in to hear more about Spencer's experiences and the healing power of music.
