SUNDAY SPECIAL: The Time Mia Freedman Accidentally Joined A Cult

Outlouders, you might think you know a lot about Mia Freedman. She's pretty much an open book but there's one fundamental time in her life which she's never spoken about. Until now, that is.

In this Sunday Special, Mia opens up about a particularly vulnerable period when challenges around her marriage, fertility and career made for a tender heart and a soul that was looking for answers But what happened when the place she went to for help turned out to be... a cult?
