Finding Yourself After Scientology: Geoff Levin on Family, Creativity, and Recovery
Notas do episódio
Rachel welcomes Geoff Levin back to discuss his decades in Scientology, his departure from the group, and the healing process that followed. Geoff describes Scientology’s disconnection policy, the depression that preceded his exit, and how encountering outside information helped him reconsider what he had been taught.
He reflects on rebuilding his identity, relationships, critical thinking, and capacity for love after leaving. Geoff also shares the story behind Brothers Broken, his documentary about his relationship with his brother and the 28 years they were estranged, and explains why creativity became an important part of his recovery.
Rachel and Geoff also discuss control, language, belonging, family, political rhetoric, and recognizing patterns associated with high-control groups.
