Description: Beatrice Weber was told her only goal in life should be getting married to a respectable Hasidic man and bearing as many children as possible. After being “rebellious” as a young teen, she was sent abroad to a strict religious school where she was meant to learn to behave. As soon as she returned, her parents set her on a path to marry a Torah scholar for a hefty price. She was only 18 years old. She would then not be allowed to use birth control and go on to having 10 children. Suffocated in the lifestyle with little to no help from her husband, she began plotting her escape. Click here to watch on YouTubeWatch pt 2 here:  https://youtu.be/6MXpJm_aRoU?si=L67psW-uh-nOcwJXResources for help leaving Orthodox communities Footsteps https://www.footstepsorg.org/Rights and Religion Forum https://rarforum.org/Find and support Beatrice! Linktree https://linktr.ee/bweberWebsite: https://beatriceweber.com/about/We want to meet you in real life!  Come adventure with us on our 2nd C2C VACATION!  Click here to go to the official booking pageSubscribe to our C2C "CLIPS" Channel!Support C2C - Any donations are welcome and appreciated to support the making of this podcast.Find our FULL (uncensored) merch store here!Patreon https://www.patreon.com/cultstoconsciousnessVenmo @sheliseannFind us on Social media!Instagram @cultstoconsciousness Host Instagram @sheliseann Co Producer / Host @jonathan.rosales_ TikTok @cults.to.consciousness Twitter @cultstocon **Disclaimer: Thanks for joining us at Cults to Consciousness.
