What happens when an ordinary morning turns into the moment that changes everything?

Yosh Markell was a husband, father, and successful business owner living a life centered around his family. Then, in 2023, everything changed. After unknowingly doing business with someone connected to stolen goods, Yosh found himself caught in the middle of a massive criminal investigation. His home was raided, his bank accounts were frozen, his business disappeared, and the life he had built was suddenly turned upside down.

Yosh opens up about the fear and confusion of watching his world unravel, turning himself in, living under house arrest, losing his ability to work, and depending on friends and family for help. He also shares the deeply personal toll it took on his marriage, his children, his parents, and his own mental health.

But this is more than a story about what Yosh lost. It’s about what he discovered when he was forced to rebuild.

Through some of the darkest moments of his life, Yosh found strength he didn’t know he had, learned the true meaning of resilience, and discovered a new purpose in sharing his story with others. Now, he’s using his voice to remind people that one moment can change the course of your life, but it doesn’t have to define the rest of it.

This is the story of Yosh Markell, the black sheep they couldn’t break.

We looked successful. Strong. Disciplined. In control. Behind closed doors? We were at war with food. In this episode, Janine Stella sits down with psychotherapist Rachel Blogg, LCSW, and for the first time, both women speak publicly about their personal battles with bulimia and disordered eating. Not the version you see in after-school specials — the high-functioning version. The “she just works out a lot” version. The food journals, the rigid schedules, the bathroom escapes, the exercise that wasn’t about health but about control...with no REAL control.

They talk about shame at seven years old, college diets, exercise bulimia, trauma that never got processed, and the lie that if you look strong on the outside, you must be okay on the inside. Eating disorders don’t always look sick. Sometimes they look successful. Two black sheep. One secret. No more silence. If you’ve ever felt powerful in public and powerless in private, you are not alone.

People love to judge your success, but they never stick around for the prequel. You know, the one with the wall-unit A/C, the EBT cards, and the 59¢ pasta dinners that lasted all week. In this episode, I’m taking you back to where it all began—L Street in Lake Worth, Florida—where resilience was the family currency and silence was the love language.

My dad was the youngest of four kids in a family that learned grief before they ever learned healing. We didn’t have much, but we had grit, and after he passed, I made a promise: the cycle ends with me. From a childhood built on scarcity to buying my first Lexus as a symbol of survival, this is the story of how I learned that breaking generational trauma doesn’t mean chasing luxury—it means claiming peace.

So if you’ve ever been judged for what you’ve earned instead of what you’ve overcome, this one’s for you. Because being the Black Sheep isn’t about standing out—it’s about breaking out.
