Anneke shares how, as a child, she was pulled into what she describes as the most secret of secret clubs, where influence was tested behind closed doors and children were kept hidden from view. As Sarah carefully guides the conversation, Anneke reflects on memory, survival, and the moment the past began to resurface years later.This is a difficult but important conversation about hidden systems, long-buried truth, and the courage it takes to speak out.#survivalstory #traumarecovery #secretsocietiesThank you for watching Unfiltered Stories!
