In this powerful and trauma-informed conversation, Michelle unpacks the hidden dangers of spiritual abuse, unsafe deliverance ministry, and dependency on spiritual leaders. Drawing from lived experience and deep discernment, she explains how healing environments can become controlling, shaming, and psychologically damaging—especially for trauma survivors.
