Scarred: The True Story of How I Escaped NXIVM, the Cult That Bound My Life

Scarred: The True Story of How I Escaped NXIVM, the Cult That Bound My Life by Sarah Edmondson, Kristine Gasbarre:

Scarred is a memoir of Sarah Edmondson’s experience in the high control group: NXIVM. I knew nothing about NXIVM before reading this memoir. I came across this title from TikTok. It was a well-written book that pulled me right in and I enjoyed the narration (by Sarah herself) since I listened to this title on audible. Sarah Edmondson’s experiences fascinated me because she seemed to have a pretty good and frankly privileged upbringing. In fact, her mom is a psychologist. So, how did NXIVM captivate her along with other well-known people? What was missing from her life that she joined NXIVM? The best part of the story was when she honestly shared her background and how the leaders of NXIVM used female friendships to trap her. However, the parts of the book I questioned were the lack of accountability on Sarah Edmondson’s part. As a recruiter, where was her self-reflection when the group showed clear signs of misogyny, heterosexism, and even elements of white supremacy? Sometimes she continues to defend herself and others past the point of reason. In fact, towards the end, it reads like either a lawyer said “Don’t show any actionable remorse,” or she was so stuck in her idea of being a good person who she just couldn’t admit to her mistakes. I honestly don’t want to be judgemental here because who knows what I would have done in a similar situation. Also, she might have taken more accountability outside of her book. But, just judging from the book, I have to give this one a 3.5 star for being well written, interesting and good vocal narration. However, the lack of accountability was quite frustrating.

2022 Roundup - books read

Fiction

An Offer from a Gentleman - Julia Quinn

The Sin Eater - Megan Campisi

Romancing Mr Bridgerton - Julia Quinn

Wandering Stars - Sholem Alcehiem

A Study in Scarlet Women - Sherry Thomas

To Sir Phillip, with love - Julia Quinn

Once There Were Wolves - Charlotte McConaghy

A Conspiracy in Belgravia - Sherry Thomas

Binti - Nnedi Okorafor

The Starless Sea - Erin Morganstern

The Hollow of Fear - Sherry Thomas

The Art of Theft - Sherry Thomas

Ghosts of Sherwood - Carrie Vaughn

Heirs to Locksley - Carrie Vaughn

Murder on Cold Street - Sherry Thomas

Persuasion - Jane Austen (re-read)

Pride & Prejudice - Jane Austen (re-read)

Miss Moriarty, I Presume? - Sherry Thomas

Love and Friendship (and other writings) - Jane Austen

That makes 19 - my goal for the year was to read more diverse authors/stories and an effort was made, even if I did revert back to my comfort zone of historical fiction and re-reading some Austen.

I'm not sure why I stuck with the Bridgerton novels as long as I did, seeing as I found them mostly frustrating. I started out really enjoying the Lady Sherlock novels, however they unfortunately became a series of diminishing returns for me.

The Sin Eater was probably my favourite novel this year, something completely original and interesting and that has stuck with me. Once There Were Wolves had a really interesting premise but didn't really have the payoff, and The Starless Sea was a strange one because it seemed particularly geared to my interests and yet I just didn't vibe with it.

Non-Fiction

Top End Girl - Miranda Tapsell

Celtic Myth - Kevin Eyres

Celtic Myths - Jake Johnson

Troy - Stephen Fry

What People Wore When - Melissa Leventon

Under the Banner of Heaven - Jon Krakauer

Victoria The Queen - Julia Baird

Medieval Costume Armour and Weapons - Eduard Wagner, Zoroslava Drobna, and Jan Durdik

Scarred: How I escaped NXIVM, the cult that bound my life - Sarah Edmondson

Don’t call it a Cult: The shocking story of Keith Raniere and the women of NXIVM - Sarah Berman (re-read)

Finding the Mother Tree: Uncovering the wisdom and intelligence of the forest - Suzanne Simard

Out of the Corner - Jennifer Grey

1001 Arabian Nights Volume 1 - translated by Malcom C Lyons (partial)

That's 13 - some fascinating non-fiction this year, from actor memoirs, to myths and legends, to my continued interest in cults and cult-adjacent material.

In particular Under the Banner of Heaven, which I sought out after I watched the tv adaptation with Andrew Garfield and was extremely compelling, and Finding the Mother Tree, a super interesting exploration of the connectivity of the forest.

That's 32 total for 2022, less than my goal but who really cares.

a vent, im sorry i just need to get this out

my cousins friends practically played my cousin right back into her (and mine) old cult by isolating her and continue to demonize her and programmed parts, they treated her like an adult when she’s barely been an adult and barely a child, they completely dismiss while claiming not to dismiss her trauma, lashing and feeding into isolating her. she’s living with us rn but sometimes talks about wanting to go back, “go home” because a part of her (she and me have DiD/OSDD1B) is programmed to “not stray from the cult” and she feels like there’s nothing for her out here, neither does the part, i just. I don’t want to lose my cousin becus she might not come back this time since there’s a chance she’ll be ‘punished’ for straying… she feels like she’s too broken to function outside of the cult anymore and i don’t know what to do.

That’s horrible. It’s also normal to want to return to the cult.

Thank you for sharing what is going on with us.

Here are some links to organisations who may be able to assist.

“A Little Bit Culty” Podcast Launches Season 5 With Evan Rachel Wood Interview

People have always been fascinated by cults. Questions abound. Why join a cult? What happened in your life that you are so disconnected from family and community that you would surrender your freedom? Why do people not learn from the disastrous finales of so many cults, from the Branch Davidians to Heaven’s Gate?

Consider the interest level from media and the audience. There is the highly successful Cults podcast by Max Cutler from Parcast and now an accompanying bestselling book. There is also the Leah Remini Scientology And the Aftermath documentary that ran on TV for three seasons. Even the popular Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt ran for four seasons on Netflix was about a young woman trying to build a life after 15 years in a cult.

Now, we have more important news on the coverage of cults. Talkhouse welcomes critically-acclaimed A Little Bit Culty to its podcast network.

Hosted by Married Ex-NXIVM cult members featured in HBO’s The Vow, the podcast just launched season five ahead of the docuseries’ highly-anticipated Return.

A Little Bit Culty married co-hosts Sarah Edmondson and Anthony ‘Nippy’ Ames have explored all things culty, cultish, and cult-like through a series of uniquely survivor-centric conversations with fellow former cult members, clinicians, and experts. As former NXIVM cult members featured in the hit HBO docuseries The Vow, their guest list has included Scientology nemesis Leah Remini, theologian Nadia Bolz-Weber, LuLaRich docuseries fan favorite Roberta Blevins, and former prosecutor Moira Penza.

Edmondson and Ames also notably landed the podcast exclusive with chef-turned-fugitive Sarma MeIngailis: an interview that detailed her fall from grace with the nuance that Bad Vegan may have left on the cutting-room floor.

Available now, the first episode in A Little Bit Culty’s fifth season features Westworld actor Evan Rachel Wood, in a follow-up to the Amy Berg documentary Phoenix Rising (HBO), chronicling Wood’s journey as a survivor of domestic violence and the numerous sinister allegations against rocker Marilyn Manson.

Also, on-deck for the season’s first month: Spiritual teacher Eckhart Tolle, narcissism expert and YouTube sensation Dr. Ramani Durvasula, and Faith Jones — whose memoir Sex Cult Nun details her coming of age and escape from The Children of God, one of the most notorious cults of all time. New deep dive interviews will be released on Mondays, with additional Weekly Cultiverse recaps on Thursdays featuring the co-hosts weighing in on the latest in cult news.

Listen to First Episode Out Today, Featuring an Interview with Evan Rachel Wood: HERE

And if considering joining a cult, remember that the membership fee is sky-high: your life.

Why do people join them? And how do they get of them?

Normal text sizeLarger text sizeVery large text size Sarah Edmondson has been asked why she joined NXIVM more times than she can count. But it wasn’t until 2017, standing naked in the home of a friend as the women around her were branded with a cauterising iron, that Sarah really started asking herself that question too. How did she get here? Why did she join the North American self-help…
