Summary

Everything changed when women dared to speak up. This week, with my co-host, criminal behavioral analyst Laura Richards, and special guest ex-CIA spy Andrew Bustamante by my side, we’re dissecting the walls of power, money, intimidation, and silence surrounding Diddy’s alleged abuse. We break down Cassie’s mother’s pivotal testimony, explore the mechanics of coercion, sex trafficking and racketeering charges, and lay out practical strategies for any woman feeling trapped by threats and shame. We ask the uncomfortable questions: When the world won’t protect women, what does justice really look like? And—how do we take back our stories, our safety, and our agency, even when going up against the untouchable?
