Amy Logan, creator of the Exmormonology podcast and Soul Searching Girl channel, explained why she is stepping away from the ex-Mormon community after years as one of its most thoughtful voices. The Mormon News Roundup highlighted her final episode reflecting on faith transition and religious trauma work.

Logan helped thousands navigate leaving the LDS Church through her podcast and online presence. In her goodbye, she discusses her own evolving relationship with deconstruction, the emotional toll of constantly processing religious trauma, and her need to move beyond defining herself by what she left. The announcement represents the loss of a respected voice in a community that relies heavily on peer support during faith transitions.
