0:00.0 | So I have a question for you all. What do a spiritual wellness influencer cults and |
0:06.1 | White Lotus have in common? It's actually a lot more than you would expect. And if you are |
0:10.4 | somebody who uses social media actively follows influencers like celebrities, this is an |
0:15.4 | episode that you need to watch. Now maybe it is just our culture's obsession with true crime, especially from women, |
0:24.0 | but over the last few years, I feel like I hear more and more stories of cults getting exposed, |

1:11.0 | and her life from last year that is getting a ton of publicity in press right now. |
1:14.7 | It is called Like Follow and Traffic. |
1:16.9 | And after seeing a ton of posts about the documentary, I looked into it and I learned the insane |
1:21.1 | story of this influencer turned convicted felon. |
1:24.0 | Now here she is. |
1:24.8 | This is Kat Torres. |
1:25.9 | And basically, she is a Brazilian influencer model who gained social status and prestige over the last 15 years or so she even rubbed shoulders and kind of dated Leonardo DiCaprio and other celebrities like him. |
