In this piercing and tender conversation, author felicia klingenberg joins The Red Tent Storytellers to read from her memoir a little bit of god — a haunting chronicle of survival, silence, and self-discovery. From the ashes of childhood trauma to the light of creative defiance, Felicia’s words remind us that truth-telling is sacred work, and women’s stories are revolutions in themselves.

Listen, feel, and remember: we are not alone in the telling.

When Felicia Klingenberg began writing a little bit of god⁠ , she was doing more than crafting a memoir — she was excavating truth from centuries of silence.

In this deeply moving episode of The Red Tent Storytellers, felicia joins Blackbird Peeja for an intimate conversation about memory, art, anger, and the long road to healing. Together, they explore the courage it takes to face family, faith, and the shadow of trauma — and the redemptive beauty of finding voice after decades of repression.

From her first poem at eight years old to her adult confrontation with truth, Felicia’s journey is both a warning and a beacon. Her story spans the forbidden, the feminine, and the fiercely sacred — a testimony to every woman who has ever been told to stay quiet.

“When I open the pages of a book, I open the doors of a prison — not to release the prisoners, but to join them.”

— Felicia Klingenberg, a little bit of god.

Felicia Klingenberg is an author, survivor, and truth-teller whose words pulse with courage. Her memoir, A Little Bit of God, spans four centuries of lineage, faith, and defiance — tracing the ripple effects of generational trauma and the quiet revolutions born from confronting it.

In this episode, she speaks with surgical precision about the cultural silencing of abused children, the patriarchal rot inside “respectable” families, and the rage that ultimately becomes fuel for transformation. Her story isn’t only about survival; it’s about alchemy — transmuting suffering into language, anger into clarity, and silence into art. Through her lyrical honesty, Felicia becomes both witness and warrior for every woman learning to trust her own voice again.

Felicia’s words remind us that liberation begins the moment we dare to name what was never supposed to be spoken.
