After escaping an abusive marriage and rebuilding her life as a single mother, Marie turned to the faith community she had trusted for years. But not every betrayal comes from an enemy. In this season premiere, Marie shares how a longtime family friend, pastor, and spiritual leader became one of the most damaging relationships of her life. As she reflects on childhood trauma, survival, faith, and resilience, a troubling pattern begins to emerge. What follows is a story about trust, power, and the devastating impact of betrayal by someone who claimed to serve God.

He began harnessing his voice and speaking out for others after leaving conversion therapy in his late teens. But his advocacy mission only intensified after being subjected to years of cyberstalking. He hopes to bring awareness and healing to victims all over the world, as well as legal change too. His related (and unrelated) work and efforts have been featured on the stage, television, radio, podcasts, and more.
