7. Courtship Rules and Koolaid Lies: Part 1 (Alisha’s Story)

Part 1 of 2

Scroll for CW
In this episode, Alisha shares her chilling experience inside a high-control cult church where the pastor dictated every part of her life—including who she could date, how much she could talk to them, and even how she entered the elite crowd of the youth group. From hazing rituals to strict courting rules, Alisha’s story reveals the hidden trauma that often hides behind “godly” obedience. Now, she’s reclaiming her voice through her platform Spilling the Koolaid and breaking the silence on the emotional abuse she endured for years.


Please note: This episode includes mentions of self harm, religious abuse, and hazing. Take care as you listen.
