In this emotionally charged episode, join Mindi and Leslie as they delve into one of the most challenging chapters of her life, unraveling a story of dreams, betrayals, and the complex dynamics within family relationships. The journey begins in 2022, the year Mindi and her husband decided to sell their home and embark on the ambitious project of building their dream house. Little did they know, this decision would become the catalyst for a tumultuous period in their marriage.
Amidst the chaos of construction overruns and financial strains, Mindi's father proposes a seemingly innocuous joint investment opportunity, further complicating an already stressful situation. As an over-functioner, Mindi finds herself making a well-intentioned but ultimately regrettable offer, setting the stage for a series of events that would test the limits of her relationships and resilience.
