Stalking and Murder in Hollywood: The Tragic Death of Sex Therapist Amie Harwick

In February 2020, Amie Harwick, a respected therapist and author, was found murdered in Hollywood, her life violently ended after years of harassment and abuse by her former boyfriend, Gareth Pursehouse. This episode delves into Amie’s incredible journey—from an adopted child to one of Hollywood’s leading experts in relationships and human sexuality—before turning to the darker side of her past. We explore the disturbing events leading up to her tragic death, Gareth’s twisted obsession, and the shocking turn of events that connected him to her murder. Through her own emails, we uncover Amie’s chilling fears about Gareth’s fixation. But this episode isn’t just about the crime; it’s a poignant look at a woman who dedicated her life to helping others, only to become a victim herself. Join us as we unravel the story of a woman who fought for others until the very end.
