Joanna Fajardo: I was in a high-control religious group

Annnnnd we're back!! Did you miss us? This week in TNR, buckle up for a wild life story from our guest, Joanna Fajardo. Joanna grew up very religious. Once she got a bit older, certain things she witnessed started to making her question everything she knew. She had a realization that she was in what she calls a "high-control group", often referred to as ... a cult. She exited years ago, and that came with major life-altering changes she openly explains in detail. To leave meant to lose touch with her whole family, but it also meant being true to herself. She was finally able to embrace her queerness -- her favorite thing about herself. Joanna offers several key takeaways for those looking to navigate life after leaving a high-control group: - Embrace Your Authenticity: Finding and embracing your true self is paramount. Joanna encourages individuals to explore their identities outside the confines of their upbringing. - Seek Support: Connecting with others who have had similar experiences can be invaluable. Joanna found solace in sharing her story with others who understood what she went through. - Challenge Fear: Recognizing that fear is often a tool used by high-control groups can help individuals reclaim their power. Joanna urges those in similar situations to question the narratives they've been taught. *If you or someone you know needs help or are looking for resources, we've included some links in the Helpful links section below ⤵️ Follow TNR on Substack + socials: https://www.youtube.com/@thenakedroompod [https://www.youtube.com/@thenakedroompod] https://substack.com/@thenakedroompod [https://substack.com/@thenakedroompod] https://www.instagram.com/thenakedroompod [https://www.instagram.com/thenakedroompod] https://www.tiktok.com/@thenakedroompod [https://www.tiktok.com/@thenakedroompod] Wanna write in with a question?
