Broken Bonds: Rachel Bernstein on Cults & Family
This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
We get emails and messages from people every day who are looking for guidance on what to do when someone they love is in a cult, so we called in an expert. Here\u2019s our chat with Rachel Bernstein, LMFT, of the mighty helpful and always bingeable IndoctriNation podcast. Is this technically a crossover episode? We don\u2019t make those rules, but we do feel pretty confident in saying that this episode is a power hour on what to do if your loved ones become culty collateral damage.
