In this special crossover episode, we sit down with Aaron from @growingupinscientology to explore the fascinating (and sometimes shocking) parallels between Scientology and Mormonism. As former insiders from two very different high-demand religions, we compare our upbringings, teachings, authority structures, and how each religion handles questioning, doubt, and leaving the faith.
This is Part 1 of our in-depth conversation—where we begin unpacking the similarities and differences between the groups we grew up in.
Make sure you're subscribed so you don’t miss Part 2, where we dive even deeper into the mechanics of control and the personal cost of leaving.
👇 Let us know in the comments if you grew up in either religion or have questions for future parts of this conversation!
