Included in the *Bonus Convo*

• Dipiti's intentions for joining BDSM communities
• Isabella’s intentions for joining radical feminism and birth liberation groups 

• How Isabella managed to avoid moving to an in person community of “liked-minded women”

• The subtle process of loyalty becoming currency and favoritism 

• Shedding light on why Dipiti and Isabella aren’t going back to a popular women’s festival

• When story telling is used as an implicit threat 

• Is radical feminism a cult?

• How “self-responsibility / victim consciousness” frameworks can be weaponized 

• How having a shared experience of losing friends / being ostracized for knowing what a woman is isn’t necessarily a strong enough foundation for a lasting friendship 

• How participating in MLMs creates an extraction lens on everyone you meet aka new connections are prioritized on them becoming your downline $$$ 

• How we deal with the guilt and shame of having promoted groups, companies, and influencers we’re no longer affiliated with

• The role of therapy after exiting cult-y spaces & narc abuse recovery 

• How constantly trying to get to the root of things became a disability and an inability to see the bigger picture that warped our sense of reality
