In this Patreon bonus episode, Rachel Bernstein addresses the pervasive issue of negative self-talk among cult survivors. She explains how cults and controlling relationships instill an internal critic in members, leading to persistent self-criticism and shame. Drawing from a book on self-talk and personal experiences, the episode offers trauma-sensitive tools to identify and change harmful internal messages. It includes education on how cults build these internal critics, followed by practical strategies and evidence-based counters to common harmful self-criticisms. The goal is to help listeners depersonalize these critical voices and foster self-compassion.
