“For someone like me, a person who desperately wanted a higher education and options in my life, coming from a cult and a family who didn’t value an education, this is a very big day for me. This didn’t come easy. This is one of the last chunks of my life that I am taking back for myself from Scientology,” Leah continues.

“It took a lot for me to take this step, for fear that I was not smart enough, not worthy enough, not able to do the work that will be required, my age…. I did it anyway with a lot of encouragement from a very special person in my life. I am ready to do the work and honestly, I’m scared shitless! And I am excited to start on my journey. It’s just never too late is it?
She ended her post with the hashtags #GoAfterYourDreams and #DreamBig.
Best friend, Jennifer Lopez was one of thousands of people who commented on Leah’s post: “So proud of you baby! So happy for you. #NoItsNeverTooLate.”
