Kicking off Season 2 of How to Leave a Cult, I open up about the emotional aftermath of my divorce and the deep sense of failure I felt. I share insights into the cult's prestigious school, which boasted renowned teachers in basketball, chess with Igor Ivanov, and ballet with Yen Li Chen, gaining recognition statewide and nationally. We delve into the evolving expectations placed on cult children across generations and the pervasive issue in religion of blaming individuals rather than flawed systems.
This episode also guides you through identifying and diffusing triggers—those emotional landmines that can impact not only you but also those around you. Join me as we explore these challenges and learn how to reclaim personal power in the face of systemic control and emotional turmoil.
