Description

In what ways can sending a child to a religious school shape their social life and development? 
How does the concept of disconnection as practiced in Scientology affect the concept of family and personal relationships? What are the emotional consequences of such a policy?
Today, we're venturing into a world that's often shrouded in secrecy and controversy—Scientology.
Our brave guest, Reese Quibell, aka Relatable Reese shares a deeply personal journey of growing up within the confines of this organization. Reese opens up about the challenges she faced, from the emotional desensitization she endured to her chilling recount of abuse and the community's severe repercussions for her cries for help.
Reese's story isn't just a tale of survival within Scientology's oppressive walls - it's also a testament to the power of healing and reclaiming one's life. She describes the complex impact on her child's life, their silent pact to protect him from Scientology's reach, and the heart-wrenching choices they've had to make.
We'll delve into the emotional and psychological upheaval Reese has gone through and the strategies she's employed in her remarkable path towards recovery.
From praise to L. Ron Hubbard to the estrangement from loved ones, Reese shares the emotional turmoil caused by the organization’s practices. The powerful influence stories like Reese’s have had on the public perception of Scientology becomes evident as she recounts her reaction to television portrayals of the cult’s abuse.
Our own Reena Friedman Watts engages with Reese, reflecting on the parallel challenges of motherhood and the innate desire to protect our children. Wayne Friedman offers his insights on spirituality, free thought, and applauds Reese’s strength and openness. In a world where resilience shines brightest in the darkest corners, tune in for a raw, honest, and ultimately uplifting episode of Better Call Daddy, where Reese Quibell embodies bravery and the quest for truth and connection.

Reena loves a story, and she‘s fascinated by the people behind them. In fact, she loves to bring stories to life. Her appetite for storytelling has taken her from the Jerry Springer Show to the legal drama of the courtroom. From influential players to reality stars, nothing is censored here. Reena interviews people whose stories haven‘t been told, at least not through her unique lens, and then gets daddy‘s advice afterward. Whether you have daddy issues or a father who‘s inspired your path, you will be able to tap into my daddy‘s wisdom, wit, and humor at the end of every episode. My daddy has been a guiding light my whole life and there‘s not much he doesn‘t know, as an entrepreneur for forty-plus years, a husband, a loyal son, and my number one supporter. He has learned lots of life lessons along the way and is here to share them with you. It‘s time to reminisce and reflect on the conversations you‘d like to have with your daddy and learn from mine. Come share in some good old fashioned family bonding. There is wisdom from four generations and I’m addressing what happens from childhood to adulthood!
