The Courageous Exit
Reclaiming Life and Identity After Control
You left the doctrine. But not the weight.
Maybe you’ve walked away from high-control religion, ideology, or relationships. Maybe you’re deconstructing, doubting, or still carrying the guilt and fear they installed in you.
You’re out—but not yet free.
The Courageous Exit is a private, subscription-based support community for individuals reclaiming their voice, rebuilding their identity, and remembering their power after control.
This isn’t just about leaving. It’s about becoming.
It’s Time to Return to You
In this space, you don’t have to perform or prove.
With guided support and honest community, you get to rebuild your identity in safety, not shame.
WHAT YOU'LL FIND INSIDE
CONNECT WITH WHAT MATTERS MOST.
Learn how to disconnect from the noise around you and tune in to what's happening in your mind, body, and soul. We'll teach you how to:
- Clear your mind with meditation
- Connect with your body through yoga
- Align your vision with your reality
It’s time to nurture yourself like never before.
Weekly Group Coaching
Grounded, resilience-informed sessions led by two Certified Transformational Resilience Coaches with lived experience in religious trauma, codependency, and identity reconstruction.
Monthly Themes & Live Trainings
Each month focuses on a key topic like emotional regulation, boundaries, purpose, or rebuilding trust. Trainings include tools you can apply in real life—not just theory.
Community Without Performance
This is not a space to argue theology or trauma-compare. This is a space to breathe. To be seen. To be met where you are.
Replays Available for 30 Days
You don’t have to catch everything live. Replays are posted for one week to give you space to digest, rest, and come back when you’re ready.
Superhero Energy (With Quiet Power)
We believe you’re the hero of your story. But you don’t have to fight alone. We help you step into your courage without needing to shout.
Empowerment
With goals in sight, create a road map to the life you’ve always dreamed of.

You’re tired of white-knuckling healing alone

You want to rebuild without burning down everything

Everyone’s journey is different. Find the right package for you:
READY TO BEGIN YOUR COURAGEOUS EXIT?
You don’t have to explain your trauma to be welcomed here. You don’t have to be ready to lead a revolution.
You just have to be willing to reclaim you.
Support That Meets You Where You Are
Introducing The Courage Fund: Flexible Membership Access
The Courage Fund: Pay What You Can, With Integrity
We know that reclaiming your life after control often comes with financial instability — and we believe healing should still be accessible.
That’s why we’ve opened a few flexible-rate spaces inside The Courageous Exit.
It’s not free — but it’s based on what you can genuinely afford.
If $37/month feels out of reach right now, we invite you to fill out a short application and tell us:
-
Why this space matters to you
-
What monthly amount feels doable and aligned with your current season
-
How you plan to show up and engage during your time in the group
We read every application with care.
We don’t judge. We listen.
And we trust that people show up more powerfully when they help shape their own path.
