Enforcing the Faith: How Cult Teachings Made Me Controlling

Send us a text

In this episode of "How to Leave a Cult," I dive into how the harsh and unforgiving teachings of the church led me to become controlling in my relationships. Driven by a desperate need to live up to the impossible standards set by the cult, I started to enforce the same rigid rules that were imposed on me. This episode explores how the pressure to conform to extreme beliefs can warp your sense of self and turn love into a mechanism of control.

But there’s hope for healing. I also share how I began the journey of breaking down the layers of walls I had built around myself. Through powerful visualization techniques, I slowly started to reclaim my identity and free myself from the cycle of control that had been ingrained in me.

Join me as I reveal the personal struggles of navigating relationships under the weight of cult expectations and how visualization helped me rediscover who I truly am.
