Raised on a mythos of spaceships and made to believe that it was his life’s purpose to help save the world, he was determined to survive—not only unsurvivable neglect but also the impossible physical and psychological gauntlet of extreme poverty and illiteracy. Children were kept in animalistic conditions away from their parents and hardly kept alive until they were deemed “useful” by Scientology. At which point ensued extreme, dangerous labor and endless hours of Scientology classes to keep their “ethics up”. The last straw was being punished for his bosses wrongdoings at 19 when he was sent aboard a cruise liner for hard manual labor for months. Once he learned they had intent to send him back yet again, he made his quick yet calculated escape for freedom. Uneducated and illiterate, he worked hard and with the guidance and support of kind educators, managed to graduate from a prestigious UK university in economics. He’s a true testament to what one can achieve after all odds are stacked against them.&nbsp;</p><p><a href=\"https://youtu.be/16hChX407EQ\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Click to watch on YouTube</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNyzrPXKpqc&amp;t=1784s\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Watch Jamie on Soft White Underbelly</a></p><p>Jamie’s book: <a href=\"https://amzn.to/4nreZl8\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">ChiId X: A Memoir of Slavery, Poverty, Celebrity, and Scientology</a></p><p><a href=\"https://benbellabooks.com/shop/child-x/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Ben Bella Books</a></p><p>Jamie’s work - website:<a href=\"https://www.iconist.ltd/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> https://www.iconist.ltd/</a></p><p>IG: <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/jamie_mustard/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@jamie_mustard</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>Subscribe to our<a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/@CultstoConsciousnessClip\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> C2C \"CLIPS\" Channel!</a></p><p>Support C2C - Any donations are welcome and appreciated to support the making of this podcast.</p><p><a href=\"https://cults-to-consciousness-shop.fourthwall.com/en-usd\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Find our FULL (uncensored) merch store here!</a></p><p>Patreon <a href=\"https://www.patreon.com/cultstoconsciousness\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.patreon.com/cultstoconsciousness</a></p><p>Venmo @sheliseann</p><p>Find us on Social media!</p><p>Instagram <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/cultstoconsciousness\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@cultstoconsciousness</a>&nbsp;</p><p>Host Instagram <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/sheliseann/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@sheliseann&nbsp;</a></p><p>Co Producer / Host <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/jonathan.rosales_\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@jonathan.rosales_&nbsp;</a></p><p>TikTok <a href=\"http://cults.to.consciousness\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@cults.to.consciousness&nbsp;</a></p><p>Twitter <a href=\"https://twitter.com/cultstocon\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@cultstocon</a>&nbsp;</p><p>**Disclaimer: Thanks for joining us at Cults to Consciousness.
