Hi, I’m Eva (Ieva) — Latvian in the UK, ex-Jehovah’s Witness (22 years).
I share lived experience of a high-control religion and the psychological aftermath of leaving.
I’m studying Psychology with Counselling — exploring conditioning, compliance, nervous system recovery, identity and rebuilding your voice.
Also: Baltic/Slavic roots + pagan/witch era ✨
📚 Debut memoir: The Kingdom Hall Effect — out March 2026.
A lived-experience account of life as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses: behind-the-scenes culture, control, fear, grief — and rebuilding your voice after leaving.

The Calm Before the Storm.
I waited a long time to share this story. In this photo, in 2013, there's a moment captured during one of the last times I felt included, surrounded by 'friends' in the Jehovah's Witnesses organization. At that moment, I was unaware that I would soon face a divorce and become a single parent. Not only that, the mass turning of everyone but 1 person against me in the whole community, the lies spread about me, by people I trusted to know better. But nothing ever stays buried.
I did not see it there, but today I'm here to reclaim my voice and tell the real story behind the mask.
March, 2026.
