    In this episode of the Mindful Movement Podcast, host Les Raymond sits down with Paul Cooke, a former member of the controversial religious group The Children of God.

    • How cults manipulate through control, fear, and isolation.
    • The moment Paul realized he needed to escape, and how he did it.
