It is time for the second round of asking:
What About NXIVM?
And it's Part 2! This is another discussion about the insane cult...NXIVM. Keith Raniere did not get sentenced to 120 years and given a $1.75 million fine for nothing. Vanessa has reviewed it all (Heather busted out some Wikipedia to support it...how they do) from podcasts to documentaries to books and shows, she has watched it all...okay, except the Lifetime movie...it was just too much.
This second installment is focused on the company of NXIVM and the businesses that fell underneath it such as JNESS, SOP, and the entry point into the whole thing...ESP or Executive Success Program. A "goal setting" program to help you reach your "full potential" and "achieve your goals". Lots of quotes because the promises did not quite pan out as promised.
See below for all the media referenced and use to facilitate the discussion. Remember kids, it's okay to aim to better yourself this year, just don't join a cult!
