Growing Up In Polygamy

As former members of high-demand religious communities ourselves, we reflect on the similarities, differences, and emotional weight of what’s shared in the interview.From public image to private control, this episode raises big questions about power, faith, and personal freedom.

In this interview, we sit down with Emily Lee, the daughter of the current prophet of the AUB (Apostolic United Brethren) church. Emily shares what it was like growing up in a polygamist household, how her father’s leadership affected their family, and why she made the difficult decision to leave the church as a teenager.

She also reflects on her concerns for the future of the AUB, especially as she sees similarities between her brother and Warren Jeffs. Emily shares her personal perspective on what it’s like to grow up in a high-demand religious group and how those early experiences still impact her today.

This conversation offers an honest and personal look into life inside the AUB and what it means to step away from it.

Two teenagers have gone missing in Idaho—taken by their older sister who had been missing for years herself. But this isn’t just a runaway case. It’s deeply rooted in the teachings of the FLDS (Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints), a group that still holds psychological and spiritual control over its members, even years after they leave.This is not just a family tragedy. It’s a window into how powerful religious control can be.#FLDS #MissingTeens #IdahoNews #ReligiousTrauma #HighDemandGroups #CultSurvivor #ExFLDS #SamAndMelissa #Polygamy #Fundamentalism #Brainwashing #ReligiousAbuse #ChildRescue #Deprogramming #Cults #EscapingPolygamyIf you or someone you love has left polygamy and needs assistance, please reach out to "Holding Out HELP" at 801-548-3492 or visit their website at www.holdingouthelp.orgAt Growing Up In Polygamy our mission is to "Create compassion for communities that have been misunderstood, marginalized and/or abused by their leaders, and to empower those who have left by giving them a platform to share their stories with the world."If you would like to DONATE to this cause you can do so here: https://donorbox.org/growing-up-in-polygamyInsta: @growingupinpolygamyNew website is now up! www.growingupinpolygamy.comTheme Song created by @artcowles Please feel free to reach out to [email protected]✅SUBSCRIBE NOW : https://shorturl.at/inqrE➡️ Checkout our other Videos:🔷Ex-Polygamist Reacts to Sister Wives: Season 18 Ep. 1-2✅https://youtu.be/R9u4wAzUjK0🔷Exclusive Interview with an Insider: Exposing FLDS Secrets✅https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIjlLejkETU🔷Breaking Free: One Girl's Journey from Warren Jeffs' Control✅ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-bH4fLMZX0🔷Behind FLDS Doors: The Tragic Tale of a Family Torn Apart by Warren Jeffs✅https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFFQ_j_RJCo🔷Tour Of The Dream Center, A Refuge Home For Ex-Polygamous Families✅https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbqR1UJFJBY#like #comment #post #share and #encourage other to #subscribe to the channel.

In this eye-opening interview, we sit down with criminal profiler and author Mike King to talk about his powerful new book, Wolves in Sheep's Clothing. With decades of experience tracking and studying predators, Mike reveals how these individuals skillfully blend into our schools, churches, neighborhoods, and even our workplaces.We dive into the chilling reality that "predators don’t always lurk in the shadows—sometimes, they sit in our pews or work in the next cubicle." Mike shares real-life examples, the psychology behind predatory behavior, and most importantly, how everyday people can recognize the warning signs and protect themselves and others.If you’ve ever thought, “I’d know a predator if I saw one,” this conversation may change your mind.📘 Learn more about Mike King’s book: Wolves in Sheep's Clothing at https://profilingevil.com/wolves/👀 Stay informed.

The Sister Wives experiment is officially over—and the final one-on-one interviews say it all.

Janelle admits she never would’ve married Kody if they had just dated first.
Kody claims he “loved them all” but only got mean because they were mean first 🙄
And now? Every single one of them wants monogamy.

This family set out to prove that polygamy could work... but 19 seasons later, it’s pretty clear: it didn’t.

We’re breaking down all the final confessions, contradictions, and emotional moments from the Season 19 finale. Watch with us as the truth finally comes out.

The first episodes of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives are packed with more drama than doctrine — and we’re here for all of it. In this video, we dive into the chaos: from passive-aggressive prayers and friendship sabotage, to pregnancy revelations and messy relationship dynamics.

We talk about Jen and Zach’s struggle to reconnect in their marriage and faith while dealing with a surprise pregnancy, Taylor being blamed for Dakota’s bad behavior, and the bizarre addition of Miranda to the group. Oh — and don’t forget Whitney’s desperate mission to win back her spot in the friend circle. It’s Mean Girls meets Mormonism, and it’s a wild ride.

Grab your popcorn — this is going to be good.

In this episode, we react to Sister Wives One-on-One Part 2, where things get even more uncomfortable. From Kody Brown refusing to answer direct questions, to Robyn repeatedly saying "I don't know," this interview was full of awkward pauses, emotional contradictions, and tense moments.

We dive into the cultural reasons behind Kody’s failed marriages, his emotional reaction to moving Meri out—despite years of mistreatment—and the shocking moment he claimed to be grieving the loss of their relationship.

Why does Kody suddenly care now? Why won’t he take accountability? And how do these behaviors reflect deeper issues in polygamous culture and belief systems?

🟤 Topics we cover:

Kody’s emotional breakdown and refusal to answer questions

Robyn’s deflections and vague responses

The cultural expectations that shape polygamous relationships

Our take as former members of Mormon and FLDS backgrounds

In this episode, we react to "How I Escaped My Cult"—featuring the House of Yahweh, a high-control religious group with shocking similarities to the FLDS church Sam grew up in. From strict isolation and doomsday prophecies to plural marriage and using food stamps to pay tithing, this story hit incredibly close to home.

As former members of the FLDS and LDS Churches, we break down the tactics used to keep people trapped—like fear-based teachings, total control over relationships and resources, and the belief that only their group would be saved.

We also discuss the raid on their Texas compound, the arrest of their leaders, and the disturbing reality that the group is still active today.
