Imagine growing up in an environment where your every move is controlled and your spirit is constantly crushed. That was Ashley Hampton's reality, raised in a high-control religious group many now call a cult. In this episode of 'Rooted Recovery Stories', Ashley opens up about her harrowing journey through spiritual abuse and the profound impact it had on her life. As she recounts her experiences, you'll hear about the deep trauma, shame, and guilt she carried for years.
But Ashley's story doesn't end there. She found a way to reclaim her life, becoming a licensed mental health therapist and a passionate LGBTQIA advocate. Together with host Patrick Custer, they discuss the power of choice, the complexities of building relationships within such a restrictive group, and the incredible transformation that led Ashley to find a new sense of purpose.
This episode isn't just about recounting past pain; it's a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the possibility of healing. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that might just help you find your own path to recovery.
