The cults you didn't know you were in
This isn't about televangelists or compounds. It's about the entertainment industry — the sitcoms, the rom-coms, the reality shows, the hustle-culture content that trained you to want the wrong things.
Vol. 1 names the pop culture systems. It doesn't offer solutions. It offers clarity. Which turns out to be worth more.
You grew up on sitcoms that made chaos look like love and called it a happy ending.
You've chased productivity frameworks that made you feel worse.
You want language for the thing you've always felt but couldn't name.
Read the others.
Each volume is a lens. Together they’re a complete diagnostic.
