Grew Up In A Cult And Escaped - Part 2

Part Two (We recommend listening to Part One first)
We are born into a family with a set of values and beliefs that might evolve. Some families are strict adherents to a particular religion or cult, which rejects the mainstream. As children, we know nothing else and are guided by our parents, but what happens when deep inside we question, observe hypocrisy or feel limited and not in tune with these values? What is it like to strike out alone? How do you find the mettle to go against everything that you know and risk losing family?

Beth Armstrong guides a conversation between three brave, astute and articulate women who speak together anonymously to share their stories of growing up in a cult or religion and escaping.
