    “WHAT IF AUTISM ISN’T WHAT WE THINK?”

    What if the body isn’t broken… but trying to heal? In this episode of Mission Unstoppable, Frankie Picasso sits down with Dr. Jeffrey Knight to challenge everything we think we know about autism, healing, and the body’s natural intelligence. Dr. Knight doesn’t claim to “treat” autism.Instead, he works with families to support the body’s ability to regulate, repair, and function at its highest potential. Because what if the body already knows what to do…and we’ve just been getting in the way? Together, Frankie and Dr. Knight explore a different lens… one that focuses on:• The body as a self healing system• The role of the nervous system and inflammation• Gut health and environmental factors• Why symptoms may be signals, not problems• What real support for children and families can look like This is not a one size fits all conversation.It is an invitation to think differently.

    Christmas Movie Premiere on Mars

    Mission Unstoppable host Frankie Picasso will go anywhere to get a great interview. This episode takes us on a journey that’s literally out of this world. Producer Margo McHugh, co-founder of Floating Lava Studios, joins us to talk about her latest film, Spirit of Christmas Station — a story that’s already making history before it even premieres. Margo, along with her business and life partner Mathew Montgomery, has spent over a decade creating stories for screens big and small, with projects landing on Netflix, Hulu, Freeform, Amazon Prime, Tubi, and more. But this time, the story goes cosmic. On Red Planet Day — November 28, 2025, the film will premiere inside NASA’s simulated Martian habitat at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, where Matt is currently living and working as part of NASA’s second CHAPEA mission — a 378-day analog mission to Mars. It’s the first movie premiere ever held on “Mars,” and the real-life love story behind it is as inspiring as the film itself. Tune in for a conversation that blends cinema, science, and the human spirit — proving that when creativity and courage collide, the sky isn’t the limit.

    Before They Were Criminals- Children who Commit Violent Crimes

    Frankie Picasso and her guest, Dr. Smith, a renowned expert in child and adolescent development and the author of Before Their Crimes: What We’re Misunderstanding About Childhood Trauma, Youth Crime, and the Path to Healing, joins Frankie for an eye-opening conversation about Children who commit heinous crimes and how they arrive at that juncture in their lives. Were they born bad? Are their parents or lack of, at fault? Do we owe our children ( by our I mean society) an apology for letting them down? Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs)—the hidden wounds shaping lives and, in some cases, leading to tragic outcomes are real. Bad things happen to a lot of us, but they don't always result in us killing someone. Why them and not us? With 35 years of clinical practice and academic leadership at USC’s Suzanne Dworak-Peck School of Social Work, Dr. Smith unpacks the science and soul behind the choices children make under the weight of toxic stress and trauma. She candidly addresses: ✔️ Why some children commit unthinkable acts ✔️ How our stress response systems can be permanently altered ✔️ The role environment plays in shaping behavior ✔️ What true healing from trauma looks like—and how it can begin And yes, the Menendez Brothers’ recent bid for resentencing is part of the conversation—offering timely context to a national conversation about justice, trauma, and what we owe the youngest among us.
