Rachel Lees, an IBLP survivor, is an award-winning New Zealand writer in Tauranga and the author of “Sacred Grooming”. The online memoir details her experience of being hand-selected at 20 and groomed over the years by American fundamentalist cult leader Bill Gothard of the Institute in Ba
sic Life Principles (IBLP). As one of the whistle-blowers which led to the downfall of the Christofascist organisation and resignation of the leader, and then filing a lawsuit against Gothard in 2015, Rachel withstood many personal attacks against her. She is finally pursuing her academic education in the Social Sciences to write and speak more on predatory grooming and the healing that comes from the pursuit of justice.
Rachel will be speaking at Decult 2024 - make sure you don't miss out on purchasing tickets. A link to purchase tickets can be found in the comments of this post.
