“Calling it Holy Ghosted is disrespectful to the Holy Spirit. God has nothing to do with spiritual abuse.”

“So, I want to say, I love this podcast. It has helped me in so many ways. I am listening to the show currently where Natalie addresses a review and I want to piggy back onto her response. First of all, if you think that a church cannot be corrupt and manipulating, then you need to head over to...”Read full review »

“I was married for 8 years to a man who was mentally, emotionally, financially and physically abusive. We went to counseling but because we were members of an ultra conservative church I received no help. I was told I was not a good enough wife. I was not submissive enough, I was not trusting God...”Read full review »

“Natalie’s book, All the Scary Little Gods, went on sale this morning. I woke up at 4am and ordered it. The first video of Natalie’s I ever watched, in 2018, was a 6-minute short entitled, “Can He Change?” I’d been involved in a 44-year long abusive marriage that programming-via family of origin,...”Read full review »

“I have been married 18 years. It has always felt so difficult being in my marriage. I always thought it was normal. I grew up with a physically and verbally abusive mother and a sexually abusive step father. When I met my husband I thought I had hit the jackpot. Not too long long into our...”Read full review »

“I loved Natalie’s book “Is it Me?” That book was very helpful for me in understanding my abusive marriage. She has equally helpful things to say in her podcast. The only thing I don’t like about her podcast is how negatively she talks about the church as a whole, implying that church is a toxic...”Read full review »

“FF makes so much common sense and, indeed, is biblical. It’s “common” within Christians because we have the mind of Christ.
Natalie said that so many secular writers unknowingly state what the Bible has said all along, yet they take credit, as if it originated with them.”
