LISTEN NOW: "Nobody Should Believe Me"

Today, we're excited to bring you a special episode from our friend Andrea Dunlop of the "Nobody Should Believe Me" podcast.Last week, Andrea joined us to share her personal story about how Munchausen by Proxy tore her family apart, and the response was overwhelming. We know many of you were left with questions and a desire to dive deeper into this rare and troubling condition. That's why we wanted to share Andrea's own podcast, where she explores these themes in greater depth and answers the questions that our conversation only began to uncover. We hope you find this episode as compelling as we do. We'll be back in two weeks with an all-new episode. Thank you, as always, for your continued support!

——

We meet accomplished novelist and loving mother Andrea Dunlop as she embarks on a journey to understand the series of events that tore her family apart. We learn that her older sister has been investigated twice for Munchausen by Proxy abuse, which inspired Andrea to learn everything she could about this complex and misunderstood issue. We see Andrea become captivated by the story of Hope Ybarra and go along with her to meet Hope's father, sister, and brother: the first people Andrea has ever spoken to who've actually lived through a case. But can anything prepare Andrea for the truth?
