Inside sex cult NXIVM - UNCUT WITH India Oxenberg

This podcast episode discusses sexual assault, coercive control and living in a cult, This may be triggering to victim survivors. If you need help or someone to talk to, you can call 1800 RESPECT or visit respect.gov.au.

“My name is India Oxenberg. I was in a cult for seven years. I didn't want to be saved,"

This is the harrowing opening line to Stan's four-part docuseries that explores the NXIVM cult. The cult started as a US-based self-improvement group, led by Keith Raniere, but in the end the group was exposed for the dark and disturbing cult that it was.

For 20 years from 1998 and 2018, Raniere recruited thousands of people under the guise of personal development seminars and self improvement sessions even luring in several celebrities and socialites with the most prolific being Smallville star Allison Mack.

Over a long period of time, NXIVM faced a multitude of accusations of systemic sexual abuse of female members by Raniere and members of his inner circle. India was a part of this cult, without knowledge that it was a cult, for 7 years.

The last two of which she was a part of a secret sub group within the cult called DOS, which is a Latin phrase that translates to "Master over Slave Women," It was at this point India was expected to engage in sex acts with Keith Raniere, to act as a slave to Smallville star Allison Mack and to be a master to her own two slaves. It was also here that she was held down naked and branded with Keiths initials on her stomach without anaesthetic and while being filmed.

We are so grateful to have India join us today to personally tell us her story. How she got involved with the group, what life was life inside, the perpetual yet slow grooming, the coercive control, the manipulation and brain washing, the things she was made to do, the collateral she was forced to put down to ensure her silence. She speaks candidly about when things turned sexual, her inhumane branding and eventually how she found her way out and her life after the cult.

Dating a Narcissist

Dating a Narcissist

Narcissism. The word gives you the shivers right!? Its a term that often gets thrown around, we hear people speak about it a lot, but it can be really hard to pinpoint if you're actually dating one.The official definition of a narcissist, according to the Mayo Clinic, is a person who often lacks empathy, acts entitled, arrogant, and prioritizes themselves above all else.We want to deep dive into some narcissistic tendencies, red flags to look out for like love bombing, and what to do if you find yourself in an unhealthy relationship with someone with narcissistic tendencies.It’s important to remember that we are not clinical psychologists, but we are two women who have both had intense relationships with people that fit this mould and we want to shed some light on it in the hopes that it can help others. We talk about our own experiences and share learned information. If you want to keep us in your ears, please hit 5 starts, leave a review, tell your friends and share the love, because, well, we love love. XTthis episode could be triggering for someone that has had dealings with people like this in the past. If that is you, you may want to reconsider listening.

58. PINK TAX - The cost of being a woman

58. PINK TAX - The cost of being a woman

Lifers, we were a little slow off the ranks today, but boy do we have a biggy for you!First up on todays episode we are talking about that Adele photo that is causing a stir, then we dive into a little bit of Bach Chat, followed by our favourite Accidentally Unfiltered stories for the week.... and then for the main course we have something a little different for you today.We are getting serious and talking about Pink Tax, and the hidden costs of being female.So what is pink tax? Glad you asked! It’s gender based price discrimination. Basically women are still paying more for certain items than men are, even if the items are identical, effectively shelling out a 'pink tax' simply for being female.Is it not bad enough that women on average are still earning less than our male counterparts!? Even though they often can’t even multitask!? (Ok that part is not fact per se but a it’s strong opinion) But now it costs us more to shop too!? HOW IS THIS HAPPENING!It’s time we all know about this and become smarter consumers.If you also didn’t know about this topic, or think that maybe a friend didn’t know about this, or just liked the episode, share the love, because, well, we love love xSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
