In this crossover episode with the Two Tongues Podcast, Chris, Kyle, and I discuss the effect of praise and criticism on self-esteem.

Could this be the beginning of the end of mandated shunning? Join me as I explain what's happening at Stop Mandated Shunning and tell you about a massive research project that could help end this cruel practice. All opinions in this podcast are my own and do not necessarily reflect those of the Stop Mandated Shunning movement as a whole. https://stopmandatedshunning.org/donate

I'm joined by Denise Wise, one-half of the UK alt-rock band Peaceful Cacophony. We talk about her experience as a former Jehovah's Witness, play some of her tunes, and ask, "Was I a high-class hooker in a past life?"

I speak to former Jehovah's Witness Monica Velin Rodriguez about why she left the religion of her birth, and why she feels mandated shunning is so harmful.

I speak with therapist Frances Peters about the psychological effects of mandated shunning.

How do loss and trauma affect our sense of identity? How can a person move from a negative state of mind to a positive one? What role does intention have in achieving our desired outcomes? Join me and Mariella with our guest, Carine Cuyvers, as we take on the subject of positive and negative energy.

In this episode, Mariella and I talk to Carol Lawes and ask, "Do essential oils actually work?" and "Are they safe?"

Join me and Carine from BlissOutbyCC as we discuss her customised skin care products and the negative effect that consuming products made from animals has on the body and spirit.

In this episode, I interview Jason Tucker, a former Jehovah's Witness from Michigan who has found peace after leaving the cult. He tells his story of growing up as a JW, serving at Brooklyn Bethel, and what eventually led to him waking up.

Join Dina Singh and me as we discuss the effect the latest JW governing body update is having on both the shunned and the shunners.

In this episode of the OnionUnlimited podcast, I speak to Benjamin Horst, an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS). By means of respectful but robust dialogue, we compare Jehovah's Witnesses with Mormonism, tackle some of the criticisms levelled against LDS, and ask the big question: "Is it a cult?"

Join me as I discuss my experience of being called on by two young ladies from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

In this episode, I discuss the latest changes made by the governing body of Jehovah's Witnesses. Are they enough? Does being allowed to wear a beard and ditch the tie (for men) or wear slacks (for women) make up for almost a century and a half of lies, deceit, and cruel treatment on the part of the Watch Tower Society? Why is the governing body making these changes? Does it have anything to do with the many court cases Watch Tower is facing? And are their new policies on how to treat disfellowshipped people a good reason to "return to Jehovah"? EDIT: I took "a few months" to mean two months, ie. 8 weeks. In fact, in the Letter to Elders entitled "Adjustments to Handling Serious Wrongdoing in the Congregation" (S-395-E 3/24) it specifically mentions "three months".

Listen to this enlightening interview with Lee Marsh from Advocates for Awareness of Watchtower Abuses and Shunning is a Crime as she explains what the abuses are and how you can help in the ongoing campaign to stop them.

I popped. She agreed. Join me and Mariella as we tell you our latest exciting news!

Mariella and I chat about our first sound bath together at The Little House of Healing and explain the "visions" we had during our sound and breath-work meditation.

Join me as I interview Patrick Haek of Open Minds Foundation and Shunning is a Crime. Among other things, we will be discussing the so-called "lost" court case in Belgium and why this is actually GOOD news!
