In this episode, I sit down again with my daughter, Sarah, for one of the most personal follow-ups I have ever recorded. She talks candidly about what I was like in my corporate years—stressed, tense, always on—and how different I am today: calmer, present, even funny (her word, I’m keeping it).
It was honest. It was raw. And yes, it was fun.
What moved me most was the reminder of how far we have come. We talk about health turning around, pressure giving way to purpose, and what kids actually remember. Not the hustle. The human.
This is transformation in real life. Not a slogan, not a title, not a business plan. It is the slow trade of autopilot for awareness, performance for presence, and grind for grace. It is the kind your family can feel.
If you missed Part 1, start there. Then come back for this chapter of growth, forgiveness, laughter, and the simple courage to show up.

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.
