Raised in a Cult. Rebuilt Through Art.

Formerly The Masked Swingers, Welcome to The Unmasked Project!

In this powerful and candid episode of The Unmasked Project, Vudu Dahl opens up about her life as a cult survivor raised in the “House of Maro,” and how she began her healing journey through s*x work, kink therapy, and somatic healing. From escaping abuse to becoming a kink educator and running her er*tic wellness brand Dalier, she shares her inspiring path toward personal liberation and emotional healing.

We’ve dropped the masks, but kept the raw, unfiltered vibe. The Unmasked Project is the evolution of our show—still hosted by Brian and Layla, still diving deep into intimacy, identity, and human connection. Only now, we’re going even deeper. Same bold energy. New name. Fully unmasked.
