Deconstructing Cults, Gurus, and the Coaching Industry with Daniela Mestyanek-Young

Today, we navigate the labyrinth of toxic leadership, cults, and the coaching industry with the guidance of Daniela Mestyanek-Young, a scholar known for her in-depth study of extreme groups and cults. Daniela takes us through her life story, of growing up in the Children of God, a notorious sex cult, and her transition to the U.S. Army, deftly drawing parallels between these two worlds.

Daniela's work, as captured in her books 'Uncultured' sheds light on the power of binary thinking and its potential to drive radicalization. We examine the magnetism of charismatic leaders who dangerously make everything about themselves, and how this behavior is present in the coaching and entrepreneurial industry. Daniela highlights the tactics employed by these self-proclaimed leaders to control their followers, pushing a narrative of success and superiority, while also exploring the intersection of racism, patriarchy, and cults.

But we aren't just about identifying the problems. We look at the possibilities for creating meaningful change in our industries, by amplifying the voices of people of color and challenging oppressive systems. We also talk about the importance of maintaining ground amidst the flurry of toxic gurus and leaders, and how to avoid the trap of human optimization. It's a powerful conversation that will make you question, scrutinize, and, ultimately, empower you to make informed decisions about the groups or leaders you follow. Join us as we reveal the disturbing truths behind cults, gurus, and the coaching industry.
