Today I’m honored to have back on the show once again: MK ULTRA, satanic ritual abuse, and organized abuse survivor, overcomer and thriver, loving mother, published writer and author, content creator and podcaster, Physician and Radiologist turned activist, Founder of the Angel Coalition and Co-Founder of Women and Children First and the Babushka Brigade, Star Fort enthusiast, award winner of the University of Washington School of Medicine’s prestigious Humanitarian Award, podcast regular, and one of my dearest friends: Dr. Juliette Engel

Born in 1949 into a US Intelligence family, Juliette was sold at age six into the CIA’s MK ULTRA program, a sinister operation of trauma-based mind control authorized in 1953. Within MONARCH - as Juliette describes as ‘MK ULTRA for children’, she endured unimaginable horrors as a small child - LSD, hypnosis, ritualistic and organized abuse, sex magick, trafficking across borders… and this only scratches the surface. Her childhood was stolen to no avail and her mind fragmented by trauma-induced dissociation. Yet, at 16, Juliette escaped, piecing together a new life with no memory of her past.

Amnesia became her shield as she pursued a medical degree, specializing in radiology and building a thriving ultrasound practice in Bellevue, Washington. Counseling in the 1990s helped unlock her suppressed memories, and despite threats from her parents, she faced her truth head-on. In 1992, she sold her practice and founded the MiraMed Institute in post-Soviet Russia. By 1999, in Moscow, she launched the Angel Coalition - an underground railroad rescuing thousands of trafficking victims. Her work exposed the global child sex trade, earning her the University of Washington School of Medicine’s Humanitarian Award. Her 2021 memoir, Sparky: Surviving Sex Magick, is a gripping MK ULTRA exposé, using her own testimony to shine a light on the darkness she survived as a child. Through podcasts and advocacy, she connects her past to modern trafficking networks, warning of MK ULTRA’s lingering influence. 

Today, Juliette is back again to talk about some current events helping and shaping the survivor community along with a discussion on how survivors can take their power back and move beyond the devastation of victim-hood.

A mother, podcaster, and faith-driven warrior, Juliette transforms pain into purpose, inspiring a movement against exploitation. Her journey - from the depths of darkness to a radiant beacon of hope - ignites a fire in us all, proving that one unyielding soul can shatter chains, heal hearts, and inspire a world to rise against injustice with unstoppable courage.
