After dr*gs, violence, and a terrifying encounter that made her fear for her life, Donna escaped that world but soon found herself pulled into Aesthetic Realism, a high-control group that she says attempted to change her sexuality, dictated relationships and even s*x, and demanded devotion to its founder, Eli Siegel. Now 77, Donna shares how she finally reclaimed her own voice after decades of surrendering her autonomy.Click here to watch on YouTubeFind and support Donna!Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/donnalamb330/YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@DonnaLambSpeaksSubstack: https://donnalamb.substack.com/Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/donna.lamb.528LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/donna-lamb-295188144/Website: https://donnalamb.com/Our Costa Rica Vacation has sold out!
