We’ve all heard the phrase ‘travel to find yourself’ and one person who has lived that to its extreme is Mia Bowyer.

Mia is an award-winning marketing specialist, mentor and lecturer and the founder of One Earth Marketing. She has achieved some amazing things including launching the world's first fair trade plastic in Bangalore, India, Creating a 5-star podcast to tell the story of people living with invisible disabilities and engaging Twitch gamers to raise funds and awareness for Australian bushfires.

But Mia’s story is so much more than just the cliff notes. After quickly realising the draining style of the corporate world was not for her, Mia began a life of travel and freedom with a journey that saw some amazing highs and achievements as well as some harrowing moments, including when she was nearly abducted.

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.
