Summary
In this gripping episode, Eric sits down with Beth Granger, the first staff child born at Grenville Christian College—once considered one of Canada’s most prestigious private religious schools. Beneath its polished surface, however, Grenville hid decades of coercion, public shaming, weaponized religion, and psychological abuse. Beth courageously shares her experience of being separated from her parents, subjected to strict diets and public humiliation from the age of five, and living under the rule of the enigmatic “Mothers”—leaders whose influence transformed the school into a cult hiding in plain sight.
Beth discusses the unique matriarchal leadership at Grenville, the devastating impact of purity culture and body shaming, and the lifelong effects of religious trauma. She also details her role in spearheading a 16-year landmark class action lawsuit that set a historical precedent for abuse survivors in Canada. Throughout, Beth reflects on the ongoing journey of healing, the importance of validating survivors’ experiences, and the urgent need for accountability and reform in religious institutions.
