#172 Interview with Author Heather Grace Heath - "Lovingly Abused" - A Conversation About The Institute for Basic Life Principles, Advanced Training Institute & Educational Neglect


Listen
Vault Productions|5/6/2022

In this episode I chat with the incredible author Heather Grace Heath about her memoir "Lovingly Abused - A True Story of Overcoming Cults, Gaslighting & Legal Educational Neglect". We discuss her life growing up in Bill Gothard's IBLP & ATI and the problems around homeschooling and educational neglect. From Heather's website -

In this highly relevant memoir, blending raw honesty and humor, Heather Heath’s story begins with her mother’s search for escape from childhood trauma, becoming perfect prey for a cult. It follows Heather’s coming of age journey while enduring gaslighting, educational neglect, suicide attempts, purity culture, realizing she was in a cult once she was physically trapped, the painful choice to be shunned for becoming a paramedic, marriage, divorce, spiritual deconstruction, trusting again, reluctantly homeschooling through a pandemic, and finally discovering her own faith. Giving each reader insight into a hidden world using pop-culture comparisons, you’ll feel as if you were having a real-life conversation with her.

This book’s mission is to raise public awareness of hidden children all over America who are legally educationally neglected under the guise of religion. Seeing one such family on TV is a cult’s convenient distraction from the thousands of women and children who are invisible.

Heather has committed to distribute fifteen percent of the book’s sales profits to The Coalition for Responsible Home Education, The Vashti Initiative, and The Amish Heritage Foundation; non-profits supporting a child’s right to an education and providing guidance to those leaving the abusive practices hidden behind religion, with little to no resources for independence. As similar non-profits emerge and funds allow, more of her profits will be allocated to them.

Last week I wrote a post saying “I liked the Handsmaid’s Tale as a fictional book. But perhaps Atwood was onto something. Her writing and themes that lead up to the establishment of Gilead sound similar to today’s headlines”. 2 days ago Atwood wrote for the Atlantic.
Be warned.

Every guest speaker here is guilty of taking money from the Moonies, a human trafficking organization.

@GoldmanSachs , your chairman Barroso is accepting these funds, in direct violation of your own internal policies on human trafficking.

An honour to chat with @angelamaria80 on the latest episode of the cult vault discussing Angela’s childhood in the Children of God and her subsequent escape to independence and individualism. 💪🏻 ❤️ #CoGTFIsurvivors

Episode 173 is live. I had the privilege of chatting with Angela about her experiences growing up in the Children of God. Another important conversation given the questions on female autonomy and the quiverfull mentality in the world today.

Creativity can be a collaboration. It can also be a solo endeavour. What makes people think they have dictatorship, dominion or any say at all in other peoples processes and projects? This has baffled me since I was a drama student in school and is bothering me today.

Partner messaged. I have a book at home that has just been delivered. Trying to show restraint and finish working before running home to open my new present!! 📕
