The fast money & dark nights that led to prison: Natascha Consigli Pt. 1

Raised nomadically across India, France, Italy and Spain, Natascha Consigli's childhood ended abruptly at age 10, when her mother was killed in a head-on collision with a truck.

What followed was a life lived at the extremes — from air hostess to stripper to prison for her involvement in a multi million dollar drug operation. This is a raw, unflinching account of addiction, survival, and the long road to accountability.

Natascha talks about quitting ice overnight, meeting her drug-dealing partner in rehab, why bikie clubhouses felt like the safest place to work as a stripper, and how prison forced her to confront her own privilege.

In this episode:

• Losing her mum at 10 and raised across the world — how childhood shaped her choices
• From air hostess to stripping — money, power and danger in the clubs
• Ice addiction, rehab and the relationship that led to drug dealing
• Prison life, shame, privilege and taking full responsibility
• Redemption, advocacy and rebuilding after release
