This episode was supposed to be a mini, but it definitely wasn't! This month, I unpack the truth behind lust, and how it’s typically deeper than just being horny. I explore how lust is often a symptom of unhealed trauma, repressed emotions, and a desperate hunger for connection and validation. From the different ways men and women experience and express it, to the way it masks as empowerment or desire but often stems from wounds. I also talk about how lust almost always inevitably results in using people and ascribing to misogyny. What are your thoughts?

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
