Getting out of a cult & getting the cult out of us.

Getting out of a cult is a big step to make, but getting the cult out of us is a bigger journey. In 2021, we left a spiritual cult and have lots to say about our experiences in the cult, getting out, recovering and rebuilding our life.

The cult mentality can show up anywhere - from spiritual groups, to business, politics or sports, and in friendships, marriages or families. Cults hijack our mind and identity, cause distress, anxiety and trauma, and the cult mentality can control our life - when we are in and when we’ve left.

So, this podcast shares cult stories (ours and others) and highlights the traits of cults (so you can avoid them or find out if you are in one). We also investigate the impact of the cult mentality, and explore how to heal so we can reclaim our mind, body, life and freedom.

Expect deep conversations with refreshing honesty, and a few helpful take-aways to boot. Join us weekly for an eclectic array of cult-related topics, sometimes with guests, so we can get unculted together.
