Season 9 Opener: A Little Bit Culty Vancouver book launch & live Q&A (Part 1)
We’re kicking off Season 9 live from our very special book launch conversation from July 2026 in Vancouver about our book, A Little Bit Culty: Navigating Cults, Control and Coercion. We chatted about the messy, hilarious, full-circle journey behind the book, then get into how to support someone who may be caught in a high-control group without pushing them further into isolation. We unpack love bombing, indoctrination, behavior and thought control, loaded language, personality changes, and the all-important question: is what you signed up for actually what you’re getting? Stay tuned for Part 2 on Thursday. Special thanks to: Megan Williams at The Self-Publishing Agency for emceeing Eric Lee at CoFunction Events & Workspaces for generously hosting us: cofunctioneventspaces.com Jennifer-Lee Gunson for recording: podcastconsulting.ca Trigger warning: This episode contains frank discussion of cultic control, coercion, indoctrination, emotional abuse, isolation, trauma, and leaving high-control groups.
