S1E7 | Scientology's Real Impact with Jenna Miscavige

In this episode of the Time with Tim podcast, Tim and Andy speak again with Jenna Miscavige Hill. Jenna grew up in the Church of Scientology, a world shaped by control, suppression, secrecy, and fear. As the niece of Scientology’s leader, David Miscavige, she was immersed in a system designed to break individuality and demand absolute loyalty. But Jenna had something that system couldn’t erase—her own mind. In time, she found the strength to question, to break free, and to reclaim her life.

In this conversation, Jenna Miscavige and Tim Fletcher discuss healing from trauma, especially within high-control religions like Scientology. Jenna lets us in on some of the systems in Scientology, like the tone scale and marking someone as a Suppressive Person. They talk about emotional suppression, finding authenticity, and the importance of understanding emotions. Jenna shares her personal experiences, emphasizing self-discovery and coping with emotional triggers. They cover themes like shame, abandonment, and the need for self-compassion and self-care. Their chat highlights the importance of emotional awareness, expressing feelings clearly, and the healing power of play, encouraging a balanced approach to emotional well-being.
