What happens when a life built within the confines of Scientology comes face to face with the harsh reality of personal loss, family estrangement, and a back-breaking search for truth? Our guest today, Liz Ferris, embarks on a journey to answer these very questions. Walk with us as Liz peels back the layers of her story, recounting her childhood within the organization, the severance of ties with her father, Bob Ferris, her tumultuous coming-out experience, and the uncomfortable truth about Scientology's stance on love and personal relationships.

In a world where you never compare notes about experiences, Liz's narrative is a beacon of hope and strength. Through the ups and downs of her quest for her long-lost father, Liz chronicles everything - from the crushing defeat of leaving the Scientology compound, to the unwavering support she finds in her friend Vanessa and her partner. We traverse through the labyrinth of family issues, restraining orders, and the uncanny similarities to North Korea, all while emphasizing the significance of having a mandatory reporter by your side.

As Liz's search for Bob Ferris continues, she faces an onslaught of challenges - false report numbers, deceptive elder protective services, and the frustration of navigating an untrustworthy system. Yet, hope shines through as we discuss the strides Liz is making to find answers - obtaining police reports and looking into body camera footage. Despite the obstacles, Liz stands tall, drawing strength from her partner and the promise of truth that lies ahead. Buckle up as we explore this rollercoaster journey, a testament to Liz Ferris' resilience and a story you won't want to miss.
