PREY VS PREDATOR

The Christian Patriarchy saturates Western politics, Tia Leving's powerful testimony focuses on exposing this abusive system.

Inside the Christian Cult of IBLP, featured in Shiny Happy People, and how one strong survivor escaped the clutches of Bill Gothard and the IBLP!

***********************************************

In this incredible interview, we sit down with Lindsey Williams, an articulate and beautiful survivor of the IBLP (Institute in Basic Life Principles) cult. Lindsey opens up about her traumatic childhood experiences of manipulation, extreme discipline, and psychological abuse that left her anxious and struggling with PTSD.

Welcome back to episode 2 on our analysis of the Amazon show Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets.

In this video we explore episodes 3 and 4 of the Duggar doc. We dig in to the outright manipulation and lack of responsibility shown by the Duggar parents, as well as the larger issues of systemic abuse enabled and perpetuated by the religious institution. We also explore the culture of victim-blaming, and share our own experiences dealing with spiritual abuse.

Join us as we break down how predators maintain control by creating a community of perfect prey. Our hope is that by speaking out we can giver others a language to put this kind of abuse and thereby reclaim their voices through this understanding.

Victims NEED A VOICE, predators HAVE to be held ACCOUNTABLE, and as prey, we have to learn to trust our own instincts.

Welcome to the first in our series on the Amazon show Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets.

We're beginning a really special series here on Prey vs Predator!  After watching the documentary "Shiny Happy People", we knew we had to cover the fascinating and terrifying dynamics uncovered by this series.  

And, so, we begin a series of enlightening discussions about the controversial Duggar family. In this first video, we analyze the manipulative coercion and control tactics used in the Duggar's religious cult.  Drawing from our own experiences, we explain how many mainstream churches subtly promote similar values that can enable abuse.  We break down how fear, loving moments, isolation, and punishment are used to control victims and force obedience. Finally, we examine how predators exploit prey's innocence and desire for connection. 

We hope our discussion provides some insight into recognizing and challenging religious systems of abuse. Victims NEED A VOICE,  predators HAVE to be held ACCOUNTABLE, and as prey we have to learn to trust our own instincts. 

We hope you enjoy the episode and don't forget to leave a comment and subscribe to  @preyvspredatorpodcast  !

Did you know that establishing healthy boundaries can protect you from emotional abuse? 

Welcome back to Prey VS Predator, and part 2 of our series on boundaries!  

In this episode of our podcast, we dive into the importance of maintaining healthy boundaries in relationships, and how this can be an essential tool for prey to protect themselves from abuse. We explore predatory tactics like 'hoovering', used to lure the prey back into relationships, and unpack the distinction between accidental VS deliberate boundary violations.  

Acknowledging and respecting each other's boundaries is an undeniable part of any healthy relationship, and while it can be incredibly hard to uphold your own boundaries, it really is necessary for self-protection and self-respect.  

If you're in a relationship with a predator, understanding the dynamics of boundaries can not only be useful for self-protection, but it can also help you identify early signs of predatory behaviour that lead to abuse, such as anger, rage, resentment and rejection.
