RFK, MAHA Moms, & The Cult of Wellness: “The Divided Truth”

Listen to this episode from Was I In A Cult? on Spotify. This week we're diving into the cultish side of wellness culture. Liz sits down with Dr. Laura Erlich, DTCM, LAc, FABORM — a licensed acupuncturist and fertility specialist who spent decades bridging Eastern and Western medicine… until the COVID-19 pandemic exposed the dangerous cracks beneath the surface.Laura shares her deeply personal story: growing up with health-conscious "hippie" parents, enduring the trauma of losing both parents young, and building a career dedicated to healing and helping. But when misinformation about vaccines and COVID exploded within her professional circles, Laura found herself isolated from a community she once considered home.LINKS & RESOURCESFind Dr. Laura: www.mothernurturela.comFollow Dr. Laura: Instagram/Facebook: @mothernurturewellnessDr. Laura’s Recommendations:Books: Vaccines Did Not Cause Rachel's Autism by Peter Hotez Autism's False Prophets: Bad Science, Risky Medicine, and the Search for a Cure by Paul Offit, MDPodcasts: Conspirituality (an unbiased science podcast) Maintenance Phase (debunking wellness and diet culture myths)Science Influencers to Follow:@drnoc@niniandthebrain@epidemiologistkat@unbiasedscipod@your_local_epidemiologistUnbiased Vaccine Resources: Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP Vaccine Education Center) Skeptical Raptor VaxopediaFollow Us for More Culty Content: Instagram/TikTok: @wasiinacultSupport the Show: If Was I In A Cult? has impacted you, please take a moment to rate and review — it helps new listeners find us! Want ad-free episodes and bonus content? Join our PatreonShare Your Story: Have a cultic experience you want to share?
