Viaje a lo más profundo: la tribu de Teal Swan

6 stars at least to the filmmakers for sure. It's well-paced and written... but the story? I don't know how I can make it through the rest of the season.

Like the previous reviewer stated this is another con-woman (Teal Swan?) with enough charisma to start a cult. Yes, this is definitely a cult. I didn't know this cult existed until watching this, and I feel for the followers involved.

She makes fun of all of the other "spiritual gurus" but you guys... there is LITERALLY a scene where she is talking about who her disciples should be... while sitting in a hot tub. I can't, I just can't.

Her childhood bff did an episode of the Mormon stories podcast were she talked about Teals manipulative habits from a young age. Highly recommend. There's a way to define and measure a cult. Teal Swan is running a cult. She checks EVERY box. This doc is shot so well, it feels like a drama film. It's very engaging - I have a pretty small attention span and this kept me glued to the screen. Of course, it's cut together in a way to push a heavier tone, but don't let that distract you from the facts they are presenting. You can tell the filmmakers really wanted you to see the red flags - but I think that's what they should've done it considering SHES RUNNING A CULT IN 2022. It's worth your time to watch this!! Stay informed!! She's doing exactly what Jim Jones, David Koresh, Keith Raniere, and. L. Ron Hubbard all did.

The entire documentary looks like years of work with meticulous attention to detail. Amazing filming, music and story telling. The subject matter is a tough one and Kasbe's genius combines horror of Teal Swan with his art of beautiful film making. Suicide is the second most common killer among the millennials and cult leaders like Teal Swan stand ready to exploit the plight of people in need of help. This is epic work in revealing the truth behind the false prophetess of new age. A must see.

This woman is without a doubt dealing with several severe psychosis. She's abusive, dangerous, and deranged. She's sick. Very, very sick.

She has several "followers" abused to the post of suicide.

This is heartbreaking and horrific. She should be in jail.

I don't doubt she will be- soon.

All the low ratings are either done by Teal and her inner circle. "They probably misled her about what they were filming to make her look bad!" or people who hate Teal "I cannot stand this narcissist"

In either case, those aren't real reviews of the series itself.

The show is unsettling and a darkly fascinating train wreck you can't look away from. It's a train wreck because we're watching a damaged person try to help other damaged people in disturbing and unethical ways.

It reminded me of a better version of the a Hulu limited series Nine Perfect Strangers (about the questionable alternative therapy retreat led by a narcissist with a secret)

It's a pretty fascinating portrait of what a cult leader can look like in today's world.

Of course it's all speculative on whether or not Teal is a narcissist or a cult leader so it's definitely not right for me to say or judge, but that's the lingering question this series investigates. Either way, it's a fascinating character study about an individual with an unsettling amount of power and influence over vulnerable people.
