In this episode, host Rachel Bernstein welcomes back Pamela Nickel Williams, an educator and author who was born into Scientology. Pamela revisits her life story, from her parents' involvement with L. Ron Hubbard in the late 1950s to her own harrowing experiences within the church. She discusses her memoir, 'Clearly Lies Are True,' which chronicles her journey as a cult and sexual abuse survivor. Pamela also touches on the emotional challenges of writing her book, reconciling her memories, and the importance of breaking the silence around abuse. The conversation delves into the psychological parallels between cult indoctrination and sexual abuse, shedding light on the hidden struggles of those ensnared in systems of control. The episode is a powerful testament to resilience, healing, and the ongoing fight for truth and justice.
