Episode Details

On this episode of Shot At Love, Kerry Brett sits down with Anne Gollert Hill for a powerful conversation about manipulation, identity, resilience, and what it takes to rebuild your life after walking away from a controlling environment. Anne opens up about surviving divorce before joining Scientology, spending 20 years inside the Sea Org, and the emotional toll of losing herself inside an organization that promised freedom but operated through control, fear, and isolation.

Anne shares the moment she finally escaped with nothing but her purse and the clothes on her back, leaving behind the only world she had known for two decades. Kerry and Anne discuss love bombing, grooming, narcissistic abuse tactics, future faking, and why so many intelligent people can become trapped in toxic systems and relationships. But this episode is ultimately about hope, healing, and reinvention.

Despite losing years of her life, Anne proves it is never too late to reclaim your voice, rebuild your confidence, and find love again. Her story is raw, inspiring, and deeply human.
