Summary
Hey lady! We all have guilty pleasures. Some love wine, some love weed, but here at Cultivating H.E.R. Space Podcast, we love true crime which is why we’re thrilled to welcome Kayla, host of Black True Crime Podcast, to discuss the power of cults, how to stay safe in this wild world we’re living in and why choosing joy is always your best weapon to combat the seriousness of our times.
Kayla shares her journey from growing up in a cult to freeing herself from challenging relationships so that she could take those experiences and chart a path of expansion for herself. While true crime is a passion of Kayla the podcast has grown into a mission to help women advocate for themselves and strengthen their inner wisdom.
