About this listen
What happens when a marriage isn't a partnership, but a proving ground for patriarchal power? In this episode, psychotherapist Bethany Jantzi (Free From Control) joins us to expose a dark reality within high-control religious circles: the idea that a wife is a "training ground" for a man's leadership. We discuss how the domestic sphere is often used as a laboratory for men to practice "authority" and "dominion," effectively turning women's lives into stepping stones for male ego and spiritual status. We explore the psychological toll of being a "helpmate" used for a man's development, and how to break free from the cycle of religious grooming.
