My name is Mackenzie and I am a deconstructing Christian living in the High Rockies of Colorado. After a lifetime of conservative indoctrination influenced by denominations such as the Church of Christ and Assembly of God, I started an Instagram called "Why I Left the Church" as a personal journal project. I have since amassed more than 800 followers. This online community has brought me great relief in knowing that I'm not alone and a lot to think about in my own spiritual journey. This month, I celebrate the ninth anniversary of the first time I went to a social dance. Learning how to partner dance was my personal gateway to self-acceptance and building a positive body image. A heaux is someone who knows what she wants and she takes the time to gather all relevant information in any situation that carries risk. She feels confident in her ability to make decisions. Her decisions are made for *herself* and nobody else. Whether she's choosing what to wear, who to kiss, or how to dance; it's her life! . Find, follow, support, and send love to Mackenzie on her Instagrams: @WhyILeftTheChurch @Dotsontheglobe . Come share your heaux story. Your voice and journey deserve to be heard.
