About this episode
What happens when a seemingly positive self-help group turns out to be a sinister financial and psychological scam? In this episode, Nicole dives deep into the world of NXIVM with former member Sarah Edmondson. She recounts her journey from an eager student and recruiter to a key figure in the cult's downfall. We explore NXIVM's deceptive multi-level marketing structure, the cycle of financial debt it created, and the secrets that lay hidden behind its public facade.
