It's my way of, I think, of having somewhat of a relationship with him by just stealing only from Jeff Bezos.
What happens when shoplifting becomes a twisted form of family bonding? In this gripping episode of 'Secret Life', actress and author Brianne Davis sits down with Dixie Perkinson, an actress and writer known for her roles in 'Speechless' and 'Wilfred'. Dixie opens up about her unusual relationship with her estranged father, a bond formed through crashing weddings and stealing from a young age.
Despite being active in multiple recovery programs, Dixie still finds herself grappling with the urge to steal, a habit deeply tied to her past. She shares her ongoing struggle with addiction and how she navigates the complexities of recovery. The conversation touches on themes of addiction, father-daughter relationships, and the long road to repairing damaged bonds.
Dixie also reflects on the role of white privilege in her life and the challenges of adulting, offering a raw and honest look at her journey. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of vulnerability, human connection, and the power of sharing our deepest secrets. If you or someone you know is dealing with addiction or other mental health issues, this episode provides both comfort and practical advice.
