After escaping from Scientology-- a typically difficult feat for a 3rd generation Scientologist-- Nathan ended up homeless, jobless, and penniless. After getting some temp jobs in manual labor, he was able to enroll in school and eventually take computer classes. Nathan also talks about the loss of his mother, and the treatment he endured with his grief. Stay tuned, Before You Go: Rachel speaks about abandonment and attachment issues, and how a lack of parental figures in childhood can lead to anxiety, depression, and a low sense of self-worth. She offers tips and tricks for coping with this and finding peace.
Where we pick up this week, Nathan Rich spent three more years under the watch of the Church of Scientology. Becoming addicted to drugs and alcohol and rebelling in every way he could, he "graduated" from the Mace Kingsley Ranch. Shortly after returning to his mother, he ran away and became homeless. Nathan also has a new book, SCYTHE TLEPPO, available here: https://www.amazon.com/Scythe-Tleppo-Abandonment-Addiction-Homelessness-ebook/dp/B07GC685LL
Part 2 of Rachel's discussion with author, tech executive, and ex-Scientologist Nathan Rich. After leaving the Ranch and getting kicked out of a "Studytech" academy, Nathan was sent to a secular school. With the help of a smart and devoted teacher, he began to excel academically and enjoy school. His mother, unfortunately, pulled him away from that school and a teacher who had been so pivotal in his life. Nathan decided at that point to get away by joining Scientology's "Sea Org", where people have to sign billion year contracts. Things quickly devolved and he was sent, kicking and screaming, back to the infamous Mace Kingsley Ranch.

Nathan Rich seems to have it all. The former Chief Technology Officer of the largest visual effects company in China, or as he calls himself, the "Alpha Nerd"; one would never guess that he was born and raised in the Church of Scientology. Rachel and Nathan discuss his years as a young boy raised at the Church's now defunct Mace Kingsley Ranch in New Mexico-- known for slave labor and abuse. After his grandfather "dropped his body," he moved in with his high ranking (OTVIII) grandmother in Clearwater, Florida. She then began to mentally collapse after exhibiting feelings, that her "powers" were supposed to repress. Stay tuned, Before You Go: Rachel gets into the work of adapting to life after cults. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is extremely common. Fear, anxiety, insecurity, shame, isolation, disassociation, loneliness and lack of trust in others as well as oneself: are all common traits of newly freed victims of cults and manipulative groups/partners.
Nathan Rich was born in Hollywood to a Scientologist family. After being sent to the infamously abusive Mace-Kingsley Ranch twice, he escaped and was disowned by his family. He spent seven years as a homeless drug addict before turning his life around. Nathan appeared on "Scientology and the Aftermath" produced by ex-scientoligist and actress Leah Remini, and has since written a memoir called Scythe Tleppo: My Survival of a Cult, Abandonment, Addiction and Homelessness.
