The Truth that Heals

Purity Culture has been coming up a lot lately in my quest to understand life, religion, trauma, and healing. To get a better understanding of what this culture was like I sat down and discussed this theme with Erin so that my understanding of it would be clearer. We talked about some of the good things regarding purity, but, we also talked about the things that many don't want to be talked about,...

One of the hardest things for me to do is to breakdown the story of my cult experience in a way that is not complicated or all over the place. My journey inside the cult has been difficult at times to talk about, even to this day, but for me to tell my story I believe that it is best to simplify things to make the cult experience understandable for those who were not members. In no way is this epi...

It is important to be able to set up healthy boundaries in life. As a survivor of cult abuse it came very difficult to me but once I was able to set up healthy boundaries I was able to discover who were true friends and who were the pretend friends.

I want to share with the audience how difficult it was for me at first to connect with people after leaving the cult. It took me years of hard work, not only for me but also hard work by my family members, to be able to reconnect after years of separation. I would often feel guilty for enjoying life and I would even feel anxiety from socializing with family and friends. I know I hid it well but wh...

This episode dives into my experiences i had feeling isolated by the “Community” and the “Victimhood” theology used by Fr. Bing to keep members silent about abuses in the community. I was put on silence and expected to be in prayer like a robot. Dead to emotions and dead to myself. I was expected to “rejoice” when I received obedience that gave me suffering because that was how a “victim soul” is...
