I'm diving into something more personal in this special episode.
Unlike our usual format, it's just you and me as I step into both the host and the expert role. I'll take you behind the scenes of my daily life, addressing the common questions clients ask a relationship therapist like myself. Each segment will begin with a question, prompting you to ponder whether it's true or false before I share my perspective based on my experience.
So, get ready for an enlightening and thought-provoking adventure as we delve into the realm of relationships, therapy, and the intricate nature of human connections!

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.
