In this episode of The Tya Podcast, David is joined by Tya Academy coach Derek Johnson for an open, grounded conversation comparing Tya and Scientology — without judgment, fear, or agenda.

This is not a pro or anti episode. It’s an exploration.

Together, they examine:

• Why Tya is often compared to Scientology
• The real similarities between detuning and auditing
• The critical differences around Source, authority, and inner guidance
• How ego, hierarchy, and control can creep into spiritual systems
• Why Tya was designed as an evolving operating system for life, not a religion
• What happens when people leave rigid belief systems without a replacement structure
• The role of appreciation in dissolving judgment and raising vibration

Derek brings both a scientific background and personal experience exploring Scientology, offering a rare, nuanced perspective on how spiritual systems function, evolve, and sometimes fracture.

This episode is for anyone who:

• Has questioned religion, spirituality, or “spiritual organizations”
• Wants real inner freedom without external authority
• Is curious about how conscious creation actually works in daily life
• Feels disillusioned with traditional belief systems but knows there’s more

Tya isn’t here to replace anything.

It’s here to help you remember what’s already within you.
