In part four, Tabitha Frady and I conduct a deep dive into the Wild Counseling Notebook from 2016, uncovering the toxic teachings and ideologies of The Wilds. We meticulously dissect its contents, including the camp's mission statements, core values, and abusive counseling methods. The discussion highlights extreme behavioral expectations, the dismissal of mental health struggles, and the victim-blaming tactics used to control and silence individuals. With verbatim readings and personal insights, the episode exposes the harmful impact of these practices on mental and emotional well-being, revealing the cult-like nature of the camp. We also explore paths toward healing and breaking free from indoctrination.
