Juana Castanheira, our survivor of SGI contacted me after her episode to ask to further articulate what processing out of a cult looks like.

In this episode, we discuss:

The shame and guilt of leaving
What happened when she tried to resign from her leadership position at SGI
Why she later worked again for SGI
Her experiences with MLMs
Her experiences with Transcendental Meditation and her sister being in the group
And much more...

Special Guest: Juana Castanheira.
