At 14, she confessed a secret that would put her dream at risk.

From Tenderfoot TV, comes a new podcast called “Dear Alana,” an unraveling mystery and poignant spiritual memoir about teenage rebellion, sexuality and spiritual manipulation… and the price we pay to belong and the systems that pay no price at all.

Dear Alana is available now. Listen for free on Apple Podcasts.
