Women of Impact

Lisa Bilyeu welcomes Terra Newell, survivor of the infamous Dirty John case, to share her powerful journey of intuition, survival, and self-empowerment. Terra opens up about her harrowing experience with her mother’s boyfriend—a manipulative psychopath who infiltrated their lives, ultimately forcing Terra into a deadly confrontation. With refreshing honesty, she unpacks the red flags she noticed, the family dynamics and generational conditioning that left them vulnerable, and how she learned to trust her gut even when everyone around her doubted her concerns. Lisa and Terra dive deep into the psychological traps that confident, loving women fall into, from dismissing their instincts to excusing dangerous behavior. Terra shares tactical advice for spotting manipulative partners, the challenges of being heard when expressing concern, and why women are so often taught to appease and forgive rather than protect themselves. Whether you’re here for the true crime story or practical wisdom for self-defense and intuition, the first half of this episode delivers both with courage and clarity.

In the compelling second half of Lisa Bilyeu’s conversation with Jason Wilson, the focus shifts to solution-oriented frameworks and the revolutionary concept of “the comprehensive man.” Jason breaks down the key differences between the traditional masculine man—trapped by stoicism, performance, and aggression—and the comprehensive man, who brings emotional range, compassion, and true partnership into every area of his life. Lisa and Jason walk through the “green flags” of a healthy, emotionally mature partner, drawing a practical roadmap for women and men seeking deep, lasting connections. Jason explores the roles of fighter, provider, leader, lover, nurturer, friend, husband, father, and son, explaining how each archetype transforms when a man is free from cultural conditioning. Together, they address building boundaries, overcoming generational trauma, healing, and how both men and women must re-learn what it means to love and be loved. If you’re ready to drop outdated scripts and build real intimacy, this powerhouse conclusion will inspire you to rethink everything you know about relationships.

What’s up my amazing crew, it’s your girl Lisa Bilyeu rocking it with Women of Impact! Now picture this – have you ever been out on a date and thought, could this person actually be dangerous? Maybe it’s not even just a date, perhaps it’s an old flame or heck, even a coworker or neighbor. And you’ve wondered, “Is this person a total sweetheart, or am I dating a potential psychopath?” Trust me, I get it! Seriously, did you realize that 1 in 20 people actually have psychopathic traits? So if you've dated more than 20 people, you might have unknowingly encountered one. That means someone who seems super charismatic on the surface may actually be hiding some pretty scary truths underneath that charming exterior. And before you know it, you’re caught up in something that isn't just about missing paying the bill or forgetting an anniversary—it could be about coercive control, losing your independence, and feeling isolated beyond measure. And that’s exactly why I’m thrilled to bring today’s guest onto the show. He’s a badass former FBI profiler, Jim Clemente, who can spot these wolves in sheep’s clothing from a mile away. He’s going to break down the signs you need to look out for—those sneaky little cues that many of us miss while dating.

I'm the freaking hothead queen, so trust me when I say I've been there and I am sharing all my insights with you today. Ever wonder how to respond rather than react when you're triggered? You're relatable as hell, and today's episode is all about transforming those explosive moments into powerful learning experiences.
