Title: Not Just a Bad Example — A Predator in Disguise
⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode discusses child endangerment, stalking, emotional abuse, and parental betrayal. Listener discretion is strongly advised.
What happens when the greatest betrayal doesn’t come from a stranger, but from your own mother? Netflix’s Unknown Number: The High School Catfish isn’t just another cyberbullying documentary—it’s a chilling story of trust shattered, trauma weaponized, and boundaries destroyed.
In this explosive episode of Life Points with Ronda, I dive deep into the disturbing case of Kendra Licari, a mother who stalked her own daughter and her daughter’s boyfriend for more than a year. We’ll unpack the shocking truth behind the catfishing, explore why I believe her actions cross the line into predatory behavior, and confront the uncomfortable reality of parents who compete with or sabotage their own children.
This isn’t about bashing her parenting—it’s about naming the betrayal for what it is. Because when trauma becomes an excuse to harm, and when society softens the language to protect the wrong person, it’s the child who carries the scars.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
