Introducing the podcast Deep Cover: The Truth About Sarah

This story is literally batshit crazy.

Sarah claims she is a disabled Marine. Convinces many but then her story begins to fall apart.

She lies and lies. She has the nerve to Have Purple Heart license plates...

She was denied early release in May 2026.

GO be You

What Really Happens in Therapy: Behind Closed Doors - A Guided Journey to Healing pulls back the curtain on what actually happens when the door closes and the real work begins. Drawing on twenty-five years of clinical practice and more than 20,000 one-on-one conversations, Licensed Clinical Social Worker Stacy G. Nation reveals the neuroscience behind healing, the body-based tools that create lasting change, and the reason talk therapy alone often isn't enough. This book is built on one foundational truth: you cannot think your way out of a nervous system response. Healing requires working with the body, not just the mind. Using accessible language and real clinical stories, Nation walks readers through the science of the stress cycle, the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences, and the body-based skills that actually complete the healing process - skills most people never learn unless they find exactly the right therapist.
