Performer, clown, Relationship Anarchist, keynote speaker; ex cult member, author, researcher, multimodal arts therapist – Cara Flame is an avid explorer and lover of life. Cara believes in the life changing power of play. With our words we can bring forth life.
Cara came from a background in professional theatre before joining a cult, then pursued the path of the independent filmmaker whilst living as an expat in Mainland China, paying the bills as a professional singer. Returning to Australia, Cara worked in film, education, and small business. She became an arts therapist. She lived her life in fear of the religion she grew up in and the cult she left, until she one day found the confidence to speak out. What followed changed her life.
Finding the power to speak inspired Cara to empower others to speak. It empowered her to speak out further, about institutional fundamental religion, and about control. It inspired her to speak out to encourage others to embrace their true selves, follow their dreams, live in the freedom of their sexuality.
Now, Cara works as a keynote speaker, author, performer and arts therapist, working with people who want to explore their own values, find a preferred way of being, discover their own freedom. Cara is especially interested in working with people who have experienced religious trauma, particularly in regards to sexuality.
Cara is a Doctoral Candidate at the MIECAT Institute, in the field of Arts Therapy. Her research is an autoethnographic inquiry into the process of deconstruction, of changing worldview.
There is a whole other world, outside that window. This book is a celebration of everything that lies beyond. Freedom, play, expression and choice.
