On today’s Mental Perk, we sit down with Peri Rose—a powerhouse in branding and real estate whose real-life story is raw, real, and radically resilient. From childhood bullying and toxic relationships to traumatic workplace assaults, Peri’s path wasn’t paved with ease—but with courage. Just three months into a dream relationship, she found herself pregnant and alone, when her partner was incarcerated the same day they heard their baby’s heartbeat.
What followed was a journey through judgment, heartbreak, and identity loss—until she rose. This isn’t just a comeback story. It’s a reminder that healing doesn’t always look pretty—but it is powerful.

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.
