First of all, it's hard to believe that we're already jumping into season five of something

was wrong, but I am really excited. As I've spoke to before, the formatting of

season five will be a little different, as it will feature what I'm calling Survivor Short Stories.

This season will feature one-on-one interviews with inspiring survivors. Each chapter of the season

will be formatted into longer one to three-part episodes.

I'm so honored to share these compelling and inspiring stories with you, as we need

encouragement and inspiration now more than ever.

Our first Survivor short story features an interview with my longtime friend Julia.

Julia is a modern-day cult survivor and an inspiration to me as a human and parent.

My husband and I actually separately attended the church, aka Col.k.a. cult that Julia was a part of,

and we suspected even then that this church was actually a cult. I'm so thankful to Julia for her

bravery in coming forward and sharing her story with all of us. I'm Tiffany Reese, and this is Season 5 of Something Was Wrong.

You think you know me, you don't know me well at all.

You think you know me, you don't know me well at all.

You think you know me, but you don't know me well at all.

You think you know me, you don't know me well at all.

I take my time every day.
