In this thought-provoking episode, we sit down with Brooke Walker, a former member of the Church of Immortal Consciousness, a cult she was brought into at just 8 years old. Led by the trance medium Trina Camp and her husband Steven, the group created a tight-knit community where families lived together, practiced arranged marriages, and believed in a unique connection to God through non-denominational reincarnation.

Brooke shares her story of growing up in this controlling environment, where children were expected to surpass their parents and be grateful for the "opportunity" to learn from their mistakes. Emotional was common and physical abuse happened occasionally, by the time she was 17, Brooke was forced into an arranged marriage. The situation worsened over time, with her husband leaving the group when she was only 22, leaving her to raise two children within the cult’s oppressive structure.

The Church of Immortal Consciousness operated without a physical church building, instead focusing on practices like "breaking down your brackets," a grueling process involving hours of yelling, drinking, and emotional manipulation. The group's leaders wielded their supposed spiritual powers to control members, exploiting them for financial gain while keeping them in fear of eternal damnation if they left.

Brooke’s breaking point came as her family started to fall apart, with rebellious teenagers. At 35, she finally made the courageous decision to leave, despite the enormous personal cost of losing everyone she knew.

Now, Brooke has transformed her painful experiences into a powerful message of healing and resilience. She hosts the podcast "How to Leave a Cult," where she delves deeper into her story and helps others navigate the difficult path of deconstruction. Brooke’s advice is clear: ask the right questions, ensure your relationships are healthy, and take baby steps toward healing without triggering yourself.

Join us as Brooke Walker reveals the dark underbelly of the Church of Immortal Consciousness, her path to freedom, and the steps she’s taken to rebuild her life outside the cult.
