Reasoned Reality is a pragmatic think tank and independent media project built on one conviction: when people are given evidence, clarity, and the freedom to think for themselves, they choose a better future. In a culture flooded with outrage, conspiracies, and rigid belief systems, we create a different kind of space — one where reason replaces reaction , compassion tempers conflict , and facts actually matter . We confront the systems that profit from misinformation, challenge the echo chambers distorting our democracy, and bring evidence-based storytelling into the places where ideology has run unchecked. Reasoned Reality isn’t partisan and it isn’t another culture-war megaphone. It’s a movement rooted in measurable impact , committed to liberty, justice, and a society that works for all of us . We uplift changemakers, amplify credible voices,

Episode #25
"You are good" w/ Momdeconstructed Christina Guillen
Jul 14, 202658 minS1
In this episode of Reasoned Reality, Joe Smith sits down with Christina Guillen to talk about deconstruction, motherhood, faith, and what it means to raise a child with compassion and freedom instead of fear. Christina shares how becoming a mother reshaped her theology, how a painful church experience with her daughter became the final turning point in her deconstruction, and how that journey led her to reimagine familiar Bible stories for children in a healthier, more expansive way. Their conversation moves through church trauma, identity, LGBTQ+ inclusion, Christian nationalism, and the difference between control and care. Christina also shares the heart behind her new children’s book project, including why she’s writing for the version of herself who once believed she could do everything “right” and still be rejected by God. Key Topics Christina’s journey from fundamentalist Christianity to deconstruction Motherhood as a catalyst for reevaluating faith Why church safety matters for children Reimagining Bible stories through the lens of love, wonder, and inclusion Shared values vs. shared beliefs Christian nationalism, empire, and the misuse of religion for control Raising children to believe they are good, they belong, and they should care for others Connect with Christina : Momdeconstructed Instagram Stay Connected With All Things Reasoned Reality Reasoned Reality: https://reasonedrealityproject.com/ Reasoned Reality Substack: https://reasonedreality.substack.com/ Joe Smith: https://www.instagram.com/therealjoe.smith/ Therealjoesmith Substack: https://therealjoesmith.substack.com/

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
