042: Signs of Spiritual Abuse & Beginning Recovery with Dr. Diane Langberg

This week we’re discussing the dynamics of spiritual abuse, how to notice the signs of when it’s happening, how spiritual abuse can be subtle and confusing in the moment, and why it’s vital that we can’t let these destructive characteristics slip under the rug no matter how much status or charisma a person may have because victims matter too.

Healthy communities are ruled by faith and support with allowance for autonomy versus fear, control and forms of gaslighting.

And we’re clarifying all of this today.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on this so I invite you to tune in and let us know your thoughts on social media!
