In this powerful final part of my 3‑part conversation with Daria, we talk about what happens when you stop letting the Governing Body control your choices—and start taking ownership of your health and your life.

Daria, a former Jehovah’s Witness and breast cancer survivor, opens up about:
• The life‑saving medical decisions she was free to make after leaving the Jehovah's Witness faith
• How Watchtower policies keep members trapped in fear and silence
• The hidden costs—financial, emotional, and physical—of following harmful doctrines
• Her advocacy work helping women navigate the healthcare system and claim their rights

If you’ve ever wondered what freedom looks like outside the control of the Governing Nobodies, this is an episode you need to watch.
