March 09, 2020 A First-Hand Experience at The Haven Retreat
This week we have a guest, "Claire" (a pseudonym for hopefully obvious reasons), join us to talk about her experience at The Haven Retreat, from The Younique Foundation - an experience designed to empower, educate, and begin the healing process for women who have experienced sexual trauma and abuse in childhood.
Her experience is harrowing, heartbreaking, and mind-blowing.
Thank you SO much, Claire, for being brave enough to speak openly about your experiences.
Please be advised that we do discuss some heavy and emotional subject matter within this episode relating to The Haven and their work. If this may have an adverse effect on you, please proceed with caution (or not at all).

March 02, 2020 Cults vs MLMs
Episode Three: Cults vs MLMs.
In this episode we chat with an ex-cult member about his time spent in a cult, and how it can be compared to MLMs. We also look at what exactly defines a cult, and whether your standard MLM could fit that description, or if the comparison is just dramatic.
