The Program: Inside the Mind of Keith Raniere and the Rise and Fall of NXIVM

The origin story of NXIVM, chronicled in the HBO docuseries The Vow, is a jaw-dropping insider look into the world of the so-called "Hollywood Sex Cult." This product takes listeners on a journey through the rise of enigmatic cult leader Keith Raniere from his former girlfriend and test subject for his coercive control techniques.

Toni Natalie, Keith's Patient Zero, shares her unique perspective on the evolution of his methodology, including his use of sex, blackmail, and psychological tools such as neuro-linguistic programming to control and punish those who would not heed his wishes.

But far from being a victim's story, Toni's is a nuanced narrative of a multi-dimensional woman saving herself and then working tirelessly to help other women do the same for themselves.

Today, Toni is happy, reunited with her son, and surrounded by friends and family - it is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the inner workings of NXIVM and the rise of Keith Raniere as a cult leader.
