TSFU INTERVIEWS: Ep. 3- Mary Byler, Founder of The Misfit Amish

That's So Fcked Up

We have covered many aspects of Amish life, but in today's episode of TSFU Interviews, Fallon gets an insider perspective from Mary Byler, Amish abuse survivor and CEO and founder of The Misfit Amish, LLC, a group that works to "bridge the gaps between English and Amish culture." Mary is also the author of "Reflections and Memories of An Amish Misfit: "My therapist says that's not true, but I digress". AND, as if that wasn't enough, they also host the podcast, The Misfit Amish and appeared in the Peacock docuseries, "Sins of the Amish", which we discussed in Episode 155- Amish Cults: Beneath the Bonnet.
Mary was born Old Order Amish but escaped in 2004 after being sexually abused most of their life. Now Mary works to bring visibility to LGBTQ Amish and advocate for Amish children suffering abuse.
