Have you ever felt like you were “too much” for others—or not enough to take up space? You’re not alone. In this solo episode, I open up from the heart to share what was hard for me taking up space this month—and why it’s so essential for healing and growth.
Join me to discover:
1. The Subtle Ways We Shrink Ourselves Without Realizing It
2. A Mindset Shift That Empowers You to Express Yourself Fully
3. Why Honoring Your Space Creates Permission for Others to Do the Same
This episode is perfect for you if:
· You struggle with setting boundaries or feel guilty saying “no”
· You’ve been told you’re “too much” or “too emotional”
· You’re tired of shrinking to fit others’ comfort
· You want to grow your confidence and own your presence
Gentle Reminder: You are never too much. You are exactly the right amount. Take this as your invitation to reflect on the space you deserve to take in this world—emotionally, physically, spiritually. It’s safe to be all of you.

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.
