Life Points with Ronda

⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode discusses the death of a missing teenager, alleged exploitation, and disturbing circumstances surrounding her discovery. Please listen with care. In this episode of Life Points with Ronda, we honor the life of Celeste Rivas and unpack the heartbreaking details of her disappearance and discovery. Celeste went missing in April 2024, and more than a year later, her body was found in the front trunk of a Tesla registered to rising music artist David Anthony Burke, known as d4vd. We break down: What is confirmed by law enforcement and media reports. What is alleged and rumored — tattoos, lyrics, and relationship claims. What feels suspicious and raises red flags. The systemic failures when children are labeled “runaways.” Why due process still matters, and why the family deserves clarity. This is not about sensationalism. It’s about truth, accountability, and remembering Celeste’s name. 💌 Email: lifepointswithronda@gmail.com 🌐 Website: LifePointsWithRonda.com 📺 YouTube: LifePointsWithRonda 🤝 Patreon: Life Points Lounge

Trigger Warning: This episode discusses political violence and the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk. Please listen with care, as some details may be disturbing. In this deeply reflective episode of Life Points with Ronda, we examine the shocking events at Utah Valley University where Charlie Kirk was gunned down during an outdoor event. From the immediate chaos under the tent to the national and international fallout, we unpack how this moment forces America to confront the dangers of political violence. As a Black woman, I share my perspective on the contradictions between Kirk’s words in life and the empathy shown after his death. We explore media framing, societal polarization, community responses, and the broader lessons about safety, democracy, and healing in a time of profound division. This is not an episode about politics — it is about humanity, loss, and the urgent need for unity in a fractured nation.

Trigger Warning: This episode discusses violence, trauma, and systemic failure surrounding the tragic death of 23-year-old Iryna Zarutska. Listener discretion is strongly advised. In this extended episode of Life Points with Ronda, we honor the life of Iryna Zarutska — a young Ukrainian refugee whose dreams were cut short in a senseless act of violence on a Charlotte train. This is not just a story about loss; it is a story about empathy, responsibility, and the systems that failed her. We walk through her humanity beyond the headlines, the failure of public transit safety, the silence of bystanders, the cracks in our mental health system, and the political reactions that followed. More importantly, we ask: what does this tragedy reveal about who we are as a society, and what must change so that no other life is stolen in the same way? This is an episode about remembering Iryna, about courage, and about refusing to look away. Together, we explore how justice must mean more than punishment — it must mean prevention, reform, and a renewed commitment to the collective human bond. 🔗 Stay Connected YouTube: LifePointsWithRonda Instagram & Facebook: Life Points with Ronda Podcast: Life Points with Ronda (available everywhere) Website: LifePointsWithRonda.com Patreon: Life Points with Ronda #JusticeForIryna #LifePointsWithRonda #MentalHealthAwareness #TransitSafety #EmpathyMatters #CommunityResponsibility

Title: Not Just a Bad Example — A Predator in Disguise ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode discusses child endangerment, stalking, emotional abuse, and parental betrayal. Listener discretion is strongly advised. What happens when the greatest betrayal doesn’t come from a stranger, but from your own mother? Netflix’s Unknown Number: The High School Catfish isn’t just another cyberbullying documentary—it’s a chilling story of trust shattered, trauma weaponized, and boundaries destroyed. In this explosive episode of Life Points with Ronda, I dive deep into the disturbing case of Kendra Licari, a mother who stalked her own daughter and her daughter’s boyfriend for more than a year. We’ll unpack the shocking truth behind the catfishing, explore why I believe her actions cross the line into predatory behavior, and confront the uncomfortable reality of parents who compete with or sabotage their own children. This isn’t about bashing her parenting—it’s about naming the betrayal for what it is. Because when trauma becomes an excuse to harm, and when society softens the language to protect the wrong person, it’s the child who carries the scars. 🔥 Join the Conversation: Do you agree this behavior should be labeled predatory? How do we balance compassion for trauma with accountability for harm? Where do you draw the line between empathy and enabling? 💬 Share your thoughts by commenting directly on this episode or messaging me on Facebook at Life Points with Ronda. Your voice matters, and together we can spark the conversations that too often get buried in silence.

⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode discusses child abuse, judicial misconduct, and contains strong language. Listener discretion is strongly advised. A young survivor stood in court and bravely told the truth: she was harmed starting at just 7 years old, for five long years. And yet, former BYU baseball pitcher Candon Dahle walked away with only 180 days in jail, probation, community service, and no sex offender registration — all signed off by Judge Steven Boyce. This is not justice. This is a betrayal. In this explicit, unfiltered episode of Life Points with Ronda, I break down the case in full detail, amplify the survivor’s powerful voice, and call out the privilege and systemic failures that allow predators to walk free while survivors carry a lifetime of trauma. This is not just outrage — this is a call to action. Survivors deserve better. Communities deserve better. And we cannot, we will not, be silent. 🎧 Listen now and join the movement: 👉 https://feed.podbean.com/lifepointswithronda/feed.xml 📌 Follow me everywhere: YouTube: Life Points with Ronda Instagram: Life Points with Ronda Facebook: Life Points with Ronda TikTok: Life Points with Ronda Patreon: Life Points with Ronda Email: lifepointswithronda@gmail.com ✊ Stand with survivors.
