Show Notes
Jonathan Todd Schwartz was once the "diva whisperer," the highly trusted financial manager for Hollywood's biggest names, including Beyoncé, Mariah Carey and Alanis Morissette. He was living the high life while secretly battling a monstrous cocaine and gambling addiction.
Consumed by his habit, Jonathan began to embezzle millions from his celebrity clients, leading to his arrest and conviction. His world of fame and fortune crashed into a jail cell.
But the story doesn't end there. Now over nine years sober and working as a recovery advocate, Jonathan is on a messy, public journey for redemption. He is determined to prove he is no longer the "defrauding monster" the industry remembers.
