A big thanks to Sarah Edmondson for her fantastic talk about her experience being in cult, and how she got her creativity back after leaving. And a big additional thank you to the presenting partner for our first talk of 2022, hcma . 🙏

There were SO MANY excellent questions asked during the Q&A portion of Friday’s talk, and we couldn’t get to them all. Sarah Edmondson offered to answer some of those missed questions on Twitter (@Vancouver_CM)

SOME OF THE QUESTIONS YOU’LL FIND IN THE TWITTER Q&A:

1. How does social media play into the “cultiverse” when anyone can be an “influencer” and create a “following”—is that culty and potentially dangerous?

2. What do you think the trend is during the pandemic. Are cult-movements gaining or losing traction because they can’t gather folks IRL?

3. Can you speak more to the importance of connecting to your “authentic self” in order to foster your creativity? Do you have any activities/routines to recommend to access that?
