“Every problem introduces a person to himself.” – John McDonnell
Let’s be real — pain has a way of knocking the wind out of you when least expected. You didn’t ask for it. You didn’t see it coming. And yet, here you are… face to face with the version of yourself that only shows up when life gets real.
In this solo episode, I'm not speaking from a place of perfection, but from a place of honesty. In life, pain doesn’t announce itself - but when it shows up it forces you to pause, pivot, and press through.
This isn’t just about survival, this is about reclaiming your power.
We don’t erase the pain — we reframe it. We don’t pretend it didn’t hurt — we own it, and we decide to heal forward.
Healing doesn’t have a deadline. Your timeline is yours and yours alone — but know this: you will heal… if you choose to chase it.

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.
