Raising kids isn’t meant to be a one-woman job. In this episode, Emily reflects on her first family vacation as a single mom, and how the experience reshaped her understanding of the age-old phrase: “It takes a village to raise a child.” From airport chaos to beachside lounging, she explores how her support system, AKA her village, stepped up in big and small ways, reminding her (and us) that motherhood isn't meant to be a solo mission.
This is a must-listen for any mom craving connection, support, and a reminder that you don’t have to carry it all alone. Whether your village is built from family, friends, or community, this episode gives you permission to lean in and reach out.

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.
