    Hey everyone, thank you so much for all of the positive feedback on the previous episode and also for the constructive criticism. I'm still getting used to being a podcast host and I know I'm not perfect and get a bit excited at times but I promise I will keep improving and I will always listen to constructive criticism. Love you all and thank you for all of the support. ♥

      great podcast, watching my second one. Just one suggestion: please allow guests to answer the questions without finishing their sentences, it may be conversational, but it just stops the storytellers flow when watching.

    This was fascinating! I got on Tik Tok a few minutes ago. The clip about Aquelle funding the cult was the 2nd video I swiped up on. I was immediately captured and quickly logged off the app and came straight to UA-cam to look for your podcast. This was a great interview and I'm happy to be a new subscriber.

    My husband had a substance abuse battle. And at the time we where still courting. His father heard about this place and forcefully led him there. And he came back very heavy about the place and now as we watch this after 5 years of the places damage being done to him. I am in such awe of this. Wow. It's sad.
    Well done to this amazing fresh podcasts. Thank you for enlightenment on so many things we are so oblivious to.

    No cult likes being called a cult. I was a Mormon for 18 years and denied it vehemently whenever I was told it was a cult. I even attended their temple and did their Masonic rituals, got married in it too, and even worked as a Mormon missionary. I eventually woke up at the age of 30, packed my bags and left.

    Erica, you are a strong woman to have survived and healed. I've been abused emotionally by a narcisist for 23 years. I've managed to break free and have had little or no contact for more than 20 years. Sometimes I am still impacted in my belief in myself after all this time. I do understand how easy it is for anybody to be susceptible to influence because these mental, emotional and physical abusers are uncanny in their ways. Stay strong girl!

    I am from Worcester. This was very interesting to listen to. There are so many religious groups that can be seen as cults. All the points mentioned at the end , if those are things that you notice then run. It is very true by saying that you can believe in whatever you want, just make sure it doesn't influence people around you negatively.

Who are you Daniela probably one of those overseas people from Europe who spend one night at the Mission and think that they know everything. Or did you get invited to Erlo Stegens house for luch now you think that you are some kind of professor of KSB. I have a problem with how things are done and if you heard some of the horrible stuff that people have experienced it wud leave you gasping for air. So shut up you don’t know my story and yet you feel compelled to stand up for a group of people who wud thrown you under the bus and not batter an eyelid. All of them the games they are playing is a vile one. I was in it all the Youth Choir also and I’m ashamed of the way that I was treated there were personal issues that make it impossible for me too go back to that place ever again.

    Amazing podcast! Just 1 thing - perhaps try and allow interviewees to complete their sentence before interjecting. It may result in them losing their train of thought or not being able to talk about something in depth because you’ve already asked a second question before they’re able to answer your first

    I'm so proud of Erika for reclaiming her life and speaking her truth and writing a book about it. I have just bought my copy on Kindle... I wish she had narrated the audio book!
    I can't even begin to imagine how much it took for her escape and break all the shackles and speak out like this. She's amazing. It's so sad that this sort of thing happens to anyone but it's really sad that it happens to good people like Erika. She deserves all the freedom, happiness, love, and life that they tried to rob.
    I narrowly escaped being recruited into a cult many years ago... the love bombing was intense (2 years), but they went ice cold and then hostile on me as soon as they realized I probably wouldn't ever convert... I walked away traumatized and broken (still recovering, so I'm sure Erika's book will be inspiring). I didn't realize what I had escaped until much later when I read about others' experiences.
    Great work, Josh!
    I love your channel!

    Just a suggestion: I know Podcasts are normally an open forum for a conversation. However, sometimes you just interrupt at the wrong time as the person you are interviewing is just about to explain, and then they lose their train of thought and we are left wanting to know what they were going to say. Maybe just let them finish and then lead it from there. Love the platform.... It's so great. Keep up the great work.

    Reminiscent of the Colonia Dignidad "mission" in South America.
    Colonia Dignidad was founded by former Nazi soldier Paul Schäfer in 1961. The commune, which was located 350km (220 miles) south of Santiago, was run as a secretive cult and dozens of children were sexually abused there. Hundreds of German and Chilean survivors will now be eligible for compensation.
    Interestingly both have a German connection.
    Hopefully our South African sisters and brothers will one day have Erika Bornman's courage to speak out and break the control like those of the Colonia Dignidad.
    "Colonia" released in 2016 is based on the story of Colonia Dignidad.
    "Colonia Dignidad" a documentary was released in 2020.

    I know this organisation in Mpumalanga (Nkomazi) area Shoendal (Shuzidal) called "Kwasiza Bantu" they build school and feed they (White pastors) black poor and then give them a cult and dogmas about Jesus eventhough I am a Believer but I acknowledge that the gospel of Christ can be misused to fool people into blind faith "if the blind lead the blind they both fall into the ditch"

    This was true for me. Looking for direction and gave my freedom away easily. Then I was overwelmed by the love. And then the frog in the boiling water kicked in.
