🎙️ Episode 265: Betrayal, Secrets & Lies — The “Bible Study Kidnapper” Story (😳 True crime vibes… but make it faith-filled, discerning, and a little bit “how did NO ONE see this coming?!”) ✨ 3 Takeaways 1.

Red flags are REAL—and we need to pay attention 🚩🚩🚩 We’re breaking down the warning signs we might ignore because we want to believe the best about people: Controlling behavior masked as “leadership” Isolation tactics (“don’t tell others” energy 😬) and so much more… 👉 Sometimes it’s not that the red flags weren’t there… 👉 It’s that we explained them away. 3. OUR REACTIONS to this crazy ride of a story. It's a dooozy friends. 💬 Real Talk Moments “WAIT… how did this even happen???” 😳 “At what point would YOU have started to feel something was off?” “Have you ever ignored a red flag… and later thought, ‘Yep. There it was.’?” Hugs, Tracy and Cathrine p.s. At the beginning….we go off on a tangent. Sorry. Not sorry. Ha ha. Please share our podcast. Help us grow.
