  • Escaping the Faith Trap: The Psychology of Spiritual Abuse

    Escaping the Faith Trap: The Psychology of Spiritual Abuse

    If you walked away from your church or congregation but still hear their voices in your head every time you make a decision, you aren't free yet. Welcome to the ultimate guide on high control religion recovery. In this episode of The Transform U! Live Show, Marcus Hart sits down with Rodney Allgood—a former Jehovah's Witness of 30 years and leader of a 13,000+ survivor community—to expose the weaponized behavioral psychology used in the pews.

    When a religious institution uses "Us vs. Them" programming, they aren't just guiding your faith; they are hijacking your brain's survival instinct. By teaching you that the outside world is pure evil and that your authentic identity is a sin, they keep your amygdala activated 24/7. They sold you the disease so they could lease you the cure.

    Whether you are leaving Jehovah's Witnesses, LDS, strict Pentecostal backgrounds, or navigating the specific trauma inflicted on the LGBTQ+ community, this episode is your extraction plan. Discover the 5 stages of recovery, how to rewire your reticular activating system, and why the ultimate betrayal in life is the betrayal of self.
