We talk about the damage that "con artists" and narcissists can do and how we all can spot them before lasting damage is done. All three of these ladies had similar toxic relationships with the same man, and they came out stronger, more confident and wiser. They share their story with me.

In this Solo Saturday with John Alan episode, I check in with you all and talk briefly about why I podcast. I also give thanks to my wife and our babies for setting up my gym for me. Lastly, I talk about the difference between training and working out, and how the movie King Kong from 2005 motivates me to train. Yes, I was chilling out with a movie while Snoopy and the babies were getting my gym set up.
