TW: child sexual abuse and trafficking
We have discussed the horrors of child sexual abuse before, but Robyn Cameron’s story reveals a level of depravity an injustice that is truly shocking.
Growing up in a cult she was subjected to abuse and mistreatment from an incredibly young age, but somehow survived and now is healing and sharing the lessons she has learnt.
From a young age, Robyn has been deeply curious about how childhood experiences across cultures, beliefs, and social systems shape adulthood, leading her to begin exploring healing tools as early as 13. Her own healing journey in the 1990s, combined with lived experience, inspired the creation of Golden Keys Healing, which she later supported with formal training including rehabilitation counselling and ongoing professional education.
In this episode she shares:
- Her deep emotional connection to the ocean as a place of safety and grounding
- Her life being born into and growing up in a cult
- What trafficking looked like in her childhood and the systems that enabled it
- The sexual abuse she suffered
- The burden she carried trying to protect other children and the guilt she held for years
- How she survived psychologically by creating different inner parts and personas
- The hidden reality of her teenage years living outwardly bright but inwardly shattered
- How trauma resurfaced through body memories and the long process of validating what happened
- The lifelong work of healing from cult conditioning and confronting internalised beliefs
- What it meant to leave the cult and lose her entire community and identity overnight
- Learning how to live, form relationships, and rebuild a sense of self after survival
- How she now finds purpose in healing work and helping others through creative and somatic practices
Key Quotes
“What brings up the most amount of pain and grief is that there were other children that I wanted to protect from being raped and I failed.”
“It was a death sentence for me to write to this group and say… I no longer want to be one of you.”
