In this special episode of the Decult Takeover Series, I’m joined by Liz Gregory, the founder of the Gloriavale Leavers' Support Trust, who plays a crucial role in helping survivors of the notorious Gloriavale Christian Community in New Zealand. Liz and her work are featured in the new film Escaping Utopia, and in this interview, she delves deep into the challenges faced by those who manage to escape this multi-generational cult compound located on New Zealand's South Island. Gloriavale has been cloaked in secrecy and coercive control for decades, with a strong grip on its members' lives. Liz Gregory’s support network offers vital assistance to these individuals as they transition from an oppressive, closed community to life in the outside world.
Liz discusses the spiritual abuse that occurs when faith is weaponized against people, the psychological impacts of cult control, and the urgent need to upskill mental health professionals, including psychologists and therapists, to better support cult survivors. Her mission to assist Gloriavale leavers and other survivors of high-control groups is crucial to their recovery and well-being.
Liz will be speaking at the upcoming Decult Cult Awareness Conference in Christchurch on October 19th & 20th, where she will address the unique needs of former cult members and the role that mental health care workers can play in helping them heal. Her organization, the Gloriavale Leavers' Support Trust, continues to raise awareness about the Gloriavale cult and provide resources to those in need, making her a pivotal figure in cult recovery efforts in New Zealand.
This interview is a must-watch for anyone interested in cult survivors' stories, abusive relationships, and spiritual awakening. It’s also an essential resource for professionals in psychology, therapy, and social work who want to learn more about the tools needed to effectively support people recovering from cult dynamics.
