In this deeply personal and eye-opening episode, Lady Cee welcomes Ms. Ivy back to the show for a third heartfelt discussion. This time, Ms. Ivy shares the painful reality of parental alienation fueled by religious disfellowshipping within the Jehovah's Witnesses community. Despite having legal custody of her 16-year-old daughter, Ms. Ivy faces the heartbreak of her daughter choosing to live with her father, driven by the divisive policies of disfellowshipping because Ms. Ivy is no longer a part of the organization.
Through Ms. Ivy's story, we delve into the complex layers of faith, family, and the high cost of standing by one's convictions. This episode sheds light on the emotional and psychological toll of disfellowshipping, not just on those who decide to leave the faith, but also on the innocent family members caught in the crossfire.
Join us as we explore the challenges and consequences of religious practices on personal relationships, the journey of finding one's path after leaving a high-control group, and the resilience needed to rebuild one's life and identity in the aftermath.

Michael thought marriage meant building a life together. Before they married, his wife celebrated birthdays and holidays just like anyone else. But after the wedding, everything changed—she went back to Jehovah’s Witnesses, bringing with her a strict set of rules and beliefs he never saw coming.
At first, it looked like a normal weekly church routine. But soon the rules, restrictions, and control took over their home, their celebrations, and eventually, their marriage.
In this interview, Michael shares what it’s really like to discover the hidden world of Jehovah’s Witnesses after you say “I do.”
This story sheds light on something many don’t talk about:
The large number of women inside the Jehovah’s Witness organization compared to men.
Why some women marry outside the faith, only to return later.
How those choices can create real struggles in marriage — and, in some cases, bring it to an end.
This was one of the most organic and powerful conversations we’ve had on Hidden Struggles. My guest brought honesty, humor, and raw truth to the table, and I think you’ll really connect with his story.
⚡ If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to marry someone inside this high-control religion—or if you’ve lived through it yourself—you’ll relate to Michael’s story.
