In this gripping episode of "How to Leave a Cult," I recount the carefully orchestrated meeting with the man I was chosen to marry within the cult. Through this personal story, we delve into the power dynamics that dictate relationships in cults, where choices are rarely one's own. Explore how leaders manipulate and control members' lives, using marriage as a tool to maintain their authority and reinforce their rigid hierarchy.

We'll break down the psychological and emotional tactics employed to strip away personal agency and ensure compliance, revealing the unsettling realities of how power operates in these closed communities. Join me as I shed light on the dark undercurrents of control, manipulation, and forced relationships in cults.
