What's that line between a religion and a cult? When does faith turn into control? Leaning on a higher power can be an extraordinary resource, but it's important to be aware of the ways this can be weaponized against you.

That's why we're so excited to welcome Brooke Deanne, who shares her journey of growing up in a cult and the courageous path she took to reclaim her freedom. Together, we explore common tactics of manipulation and coercive control, how neurodivergent people can be more susceptible to this type of abuse, and steps you can take to break free.

Brooke now channels her lived experience and training into coaching others, helping them reconnect with their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and find resilience in the places that once felt powerless.
