NXIVM started out as a self-help/wellness organization where people paid thousands of dollars to learn how to unlock their inner greatness. But as time went on it began to become much more sinister and evolved into a cult that ruined countless lives. Women were recruited with the impression that they would soon discover and unlock their own power but it wasn’t long before they were forced into horrific rituals, abuse, and mental anguish. As it all came crashing down countless lives were changed forever and the ring leaders faced massive sentences to pay for their crimes.
