We sat down with Daniella Mestyanek Young she is a Cult Expert, Cult Survivor, U.S. Army Veteran, Harvard grad in the study of organizational psychology and author of two books on cults. Her memoir Uncultured came out in 2022 covering her experience growing up in the Children of God cult & comparing it to her time in the U.S. Army as an intelligence officer. She now has a new book coming out in January called "The Culting of America" where she better defines what a cult is using a 10 part framework.
