Morningland PT1: "The Daughters of Isis"

Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of child abuse and sexual coercion.

It started with a pizza party for single moms. But soon, there were purple-lit temples, custom medallions, and a man who called himself "Donato the Christ". What could possibly go wrong?

In Part 1 of Frankie Tease's gripping story, we follow her teen years inside Long Beach, California's Morningland—a so-called spiritual community where rituals masked control, and devotion was slowly weaponized.

Manipulation. Isolation. Grooming disguised as enlightenment—and a disturbing undercurrent of coercion that only grew darker with time. Frankie lived it all. And this is just the beginning.

Next week brings even more revelations… as well as Frankie's road to freedom.
