    Cults - Part Three
    Apr 21 2025

    In the final part of this candid and emotionally resonant series, Katherine sits down with our anonymous guest for a wide-ranging conversation on reclaiming life, identity, and freedom after leaving a cult. Through reflection, analysis, and moments of both levity and gravity, they explore what comes after escape: the long process of unlearning, healing, and re-entering the world.

    This episode dives into pop culture, spirituality, horror as catharsis, and what documentaries get right—and wrong—about cult life. You’ll hear powerful reflections on trust, autonomy, and the ongoing journey of writing a new story after surviving a system of control.

    00:06:52 Is Aunt Bessie a reference to something?

    00:08:40 Was it just God or was there like the Trinity of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit?

It’s an honest, intense, and insightful look into the psychological grip these groups can have—even long after someone leaves.Trigger warnings include trauma, spiritual and emotional abuse, psychological manipulation, and suicidal ideation. Please listen with care.TIMESTAMPS00:01:26 What differences did you notice in these “biblified” holidays? 00:03:41 What were birthdays like?00:04:13 Speaking of siblings and their names from the bible…00:05:50 And y'all could have pets like typical household families?00:08:44 To have siblings that weren't around for the cult, that are growing up in a different way. How do you feel about that?00:10:24 You touched on the sex education or rather lack of. Is that the only way —abstinence?00:11:53 Was there any talk about the health of like, hey, you're, this is what happens with puberty?00:13:18 What is in the Bible regarding menstruation?00:15:51 Did you experience other women in the church being pregnant?00:18:21 You mentioned at five years old, you knew who you were, quote unquote, destined to marry. Did you have a friendship with the person, or relationship?00:20:02 What sex education do you suppose the guys got?00:21:56 “I know one of the guys that assaulted me, assaulted one of my sisters.”00:22:33 Is that out of shame that you didn't share with each other?00:24:09 So now that you're not involved, and you exited, what was the removal process like for you?00:26:45 You mentioned earlier how overwhelming it was to be in the greater world of things. How did you cope with that?00:29:16 “I never even saw the r*pes as r*pe until I was in college.”00:33:14 So when you were trying one of every [drug], did you find answers out of those experiences?00:35:23 What was ultimately something that really helped you start the healing?00:36:39 This may have been weeks ago, perhaps an off comment, where you were figuring out like, there's not a hell, there's not this, there's not, and it was like, your whole belief system was crashing around you. How long did that take to get over?00:38:13 “Since the day I was born, I was told these shoulders are going to send me to hell.”00:39:35 Tell me more about you looking into Greek mythologies.00:44:32 “I have struggled with s*icid*l ideation adhesion since leaving the cult because suicide is a sin, according to the Bible and according to the cult.”00:46:13 Is an identity crisis the right term to use for that?00:46:49 Do you find more solace from talking to folk that were also involved in cults, or do you find more solace from folk that have never been in cults?00:50:08 So these claims, it seems very your word against everybody else's.Does stuff like this get caught in that rumor mill and all of the gossip?WEBSITEhttps://takesonetowriteone.com/SOCIALSInstagram: https://tinyurl.com/T1tW1-InstagramThreads: https://tinyurl.com/T1tW1-ThreadsBluesky: https://tinyurl.com/T1tW1-BlueskyYouTube: https://tinyurl.com/T1tW1-YouTubePinterest: https://tinyurl.com/T1tW1-PinterestSpotify: https://tinyurl.com/T1tW1-SpotifyYouTube Music: https://tinyurl.com/T1tW1-YouTubeMusicRead less

What was that verbiage like?00:42:57 Was the pastor who was getting all the money, who was clearly not doing what he was saying he was going to do with the money, was he living a flashier life than the rest of the members?00:44:58 So, you were with this group, always doing stuff, always keeping busy, studying, doing X, Y, Z. And then you mentioned how isolating it was at the same time.

    00:46:32 Do you ever give away free drinks to regulars or under special circumstances?

    00:48:26 Do you ever have to cut people off from coffee?

    00:51:29 When you said for a certain amount of time for the espresso pulls, what is that?

    00:52:13 What does it mean to adjust the grind?

    00:58:23 What does a rosetta look like, and what does a stack look like?

    00:59:10 Are there elements that are in, like, a certain coffee drink where you know that a rosetta or a stack is just not going to turn up?

    01:00:24 Are there people that take drinks that aren't theirs?

    01:02:10 Is there a preferred order or way in which you would appreciate the order being asked for?

    01:07:05 And are the codes that you use, are they pretty standard?

    00:00:49 What movies, media, pop culture gets it wrong?

    00:06:50 So with call-ins, call-outs, when you're talking about anything over the radio? What certain points need to be hit in order to be understood? What are you identifying?

    00:21:09 Is there a physical item related to piloting or aviation that you guys cherish?

    00:24:48 How does one adapt the pilot speak?

    00:25:57 If I weren't in this field, I would never believe what?

    00:29:11 You've mentioned the newer prospects and stuff. Is there any advice that you have for them outside of just keep pushing through?

    00:35:15 And when they refer to your passengers, they say, how many souls on board?

    00:36:53 You mentioned souls being old terminology. Is there other old terminology that's bled through?

    00:37:15 Alpha, bravo, trolley, delta, echo. You guys have that memorized now?

    00:37:52 So if you weren't a pilot…

    00:43:27 So best job ever.
