6. One woman鈥檚 story
This podcast is the subject of a legal complaint. A former One Taste member and her brother tell us about her experience
This podcast is now the subject of a legal complaint by Nicole Daedone, Rachel Cherwitz, OneTaste Incorporated, the Institute of OM LLC and OM IP Co.
One former One Taste member tells us the story of her experiences inside One Taste.
Before she encountered One Taste, she had struggled to orgasm, and mainstream doctors hadn鈥檛 been able to tell her why.
She says the prospect that she could experience orgasm through Orgasmic Meditation left her 鈥渟aturated with hope鈥.
Initially, One Taste welcomed her with open arms 鈥 but the company soon became exploitative.
She was encouraged to go into debt to pay for One Taste classes, to turn away from her friends and family, and to start a relationship with a wealthy One Taste member who could pay for her courses 鈥 a situation she describes as 鈥渘ot exactly prostitution, but not completely different鈥.
She left One Taste with PTSD.
Plus, her brother tells us what it was like to watch his sister become more and more distant from the outside world.
