Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin

In her ongoing coverage of the events in Israel, Nicole brings you a special episode of Help Wanted, the podcast she cohosts with Jason Feifer— editor in chief of Entrepreneur Magazine. In this episode, Jason and Nicole tackle a question the whole internet is asking: should we be talking about politics on social media? Some argue we have a responsibility to share our beliefs, while others believe social media is not the best forum to affect change. Jason and Nicole, alongside marketing expert Aliza Licht, give you the framework to decide when and how to engage with political topics on social media— and if engaging is right for you at all.

Originally aired 6/10/22 In the early 2000s, a group of teenagers collectively known as "The Bling Ring" reportedly stole over $3 million dollar’s worth of possessions from celebrities like Orlando Bloom, Paris Hilton, Rachel Bilson, Megan Fox, Lindsay Lohan and more. Over a decade later, a viral Vanity Fair article and a subsequent film still control the narrative of this story— not the people involved. If you watched the film, you might think that Alexis Haines (née Neiers) was the ringleader of the Bling Ring. So it might surprise you to learn that she was actually only at one of the break-ins, and at the time, she was addicted to heroin and dealing with the aftermath of abuse. Alexis will be the first one to tell you that stealing is always wrong. Full stop. But so long as her story is still being told in the media, she should be the one to tell it. Alexis tells Nicole and Morgan her side of The Bling Ring story, her tips on manifesting money, the financial and emotional cost of reality TV, the latest on her divorce, the silver linings of her recovery journey, and everything in-between.
