Aaron Smith-Levin spent decades inside Scientology — rising through its ranks, defending its doctrines, and recruiting others into the fold. Now, he’s one of its most fearless critics. In this revealing conversation, Aaron breaks down how he escaped the high-control world of Scientology, what really goes on behind closed doors, and the psychological grip the church holds over its members.
