  • I’m a feminist, new author who left cult. I love to be a guest.

    Excellent content! I’m the author of the new release graphic novel CULT GIRLS (on Amazon & Barnes) by Natalie Grand. It’s a light hearted comedy, based on a true story of 4 women born, raised in the Jehovah’s Witness cult.

    If you are looking for an anti-cult activist special guest my Twitter is Natalie Grand.
