We also talk about our own experiences in public schools, the importance of community in raising children, food budgeting and planning, and the judgements that people have around homeschooling. Raphaëlle is a hom...2025-05-091h 57Impolite Company with Demetra GrayImpolite Company with Demetra Gray#13: Growing up in a Christian cult, sexual abuse & grooming, winning in court, & a story of true healing | DanyelleDanyelle grew up in a Duggar-family-style Christian cult.

In this episode, I break down some of the common traits of cults, why people join them, and most significantly, why cult-like qualities aren’t always a bad thing. There’s a lot of nuance here—just because something has a few culty aspects doesn’t mean it’s harmful, and not everything that portrays itself as good is safe. I also get into how to tell the difference and why it’s not always as obvious as it seems. Plus, at the beginnin...2025-02-071h 29Medicine StoriesMedicine Stories114.
