- Workout Witch on Reddit
I enjoyed the episode as an intro to Somatics… and they closed with a great question on how to see the difference between a legit Teacher/Healer but failed to question her on the MANY complaints about her on Reddit and other social media platforms as a total scammer. Obviously a difficult thing to pull off without disrespecting the guest, or maybe they truly just quickly bought into her book. But the criticisms are very real and she doesn’t have any real credibility or credentials. (No degree.... more

ALBC always hit the nail on the head with guests and topics to help you recover and this is a great episode to listen to if your looking for another tool in the box. Nippy and Sarah are always so open and genuine with their journey and process it’s a joy to listen too.

Wow episode with Sam & Elise hit home! They described my experience with high control religion. I keep saying I left a cult and now I can prove it. Thanks for your work in exposing the cults

Could not get through this one - as unfortunately is the case with many of the episodes lately. While I’m sure Sarah had the best intentions of being supportive and helpful, it came across as condescending and know-it-all. Also, the editors could have stepped in to mitigate the extremely long pauses when the guest was speaking. Sarah and Nippy have done great work in this space and it’s a shame to hear the quality decline.

I was liking this pod but something felt off. Little comments here and there gave me the sense that these two have more work to do on their recuperation. Platforming Tolle was what broke the shelf. I wish them the best but I’ll be moving on. Steven Hassan doesn’t have a smooth voice or interviewing style but he’s the real deal. If you’re recovering from cult abuse, listen to a pro. If you decide to stay with this pod, listen with caution and use your best critical thinking skills.
