In this jaw-dropping episode of The Determined Society, host Shawn French sits down with powerhouse Texas attorney Michelle O’Neil to unpack the disturbing headlines around Kanye West, Bianca Censori, and emotional abuse in celebrity relationships.
Michelle brings 30+ years of family law experience to this raw conversation, revealing what the media won’t tell you, how power dynamics play out behind closed doors, and the legal red flags that shouldn’t be ignored.
Plus, the duo dives into the Diddy trial, the manipulation of media narratives, the downfall of public trust, and why real leadership, in life, law, and politics, has to come from purpose, not performance.
