The daughter of a Polish army colonel, young Dorota seemed to have it all. And yet a longing remained in her soul for something more. Leaving the life she knew behind on a whim and joining the cult "The Family International (formerly known as The Children of God)" at 18 years old seemed like a great way to escape, and for awhile it was. As her children grew older she saw the need to provide them with a proper education, and left the cult in order to pursue that dream. Listen as Dorota tells us about some of the most difficult moments in her life. Moments that she thought she may not survive. Find out what kept her going in the darkest of times and how she made it through horrific, bone chilling events.

The Accident That Changed Everything
At any moment our world can change entirely. One phone call, one second, one incident can shatter the reality that we've built for ourselves. These occurences are sealed in our memories forever. From that moment on, nothing is ever the same again. Your coffee tastes different, your pillow doesn't feel the same, even the sky seems to have a different hue. This is referred to in psychology as a "flash bulb" moment. Join us as Priscilla shares the story surrounding one such defining moment in her life, and how everything in her world changed.
