Serial Killers & Murderous Minds · Shelly Michael: Nurse, Wife, and Killer Pt. 1 · 24 Aug 2026 podcast

Well the voice-verified

We were just talking about how Shelly was future oriented. voice-verified

She had already imagined a life with Rob, the marriage, stability, and the dream of her own little family, as you said. voice-verified

We also talked about how that imagined future likely became part of why she remained so invested in the relationship, despite the fact that there was significant conflict and how that conflict was actually being drawn out in front of Alec. voice-verified

But when she met Jimmy, clearly something shifted. voice-verified

I think that shift was due to her being able for the first time to envision achieving that same future. voice-verified

Or perhaps even a better version of it with someone else. voice-verified

And I think Jimmy may have represented a fresh start, but a fast one too. voice-verified

Just as people can become attached to the future, they imagine they can also become attached to what a person symbolizes. voice-verified

At this point, Shelly had spent seven years earning her undergraduate degree. voice-verified

She was raising two children. voice-verified

Trying to hold her family together, asking her husband to go to couples therapy and watching him refuse. voice-verified

From her perspective, she may have felt as though she was working incredibly hard but not getting anywhere. voice-verified

And then she meets Jimmy. voice-verified

He has the home, he has the family, the stability, and the life that she had been working toward for years. voice-verified

Whether her perception was realistic is a whole other question, but voice-verified

Psychologically, Jimmy may have actually represented progress to her and the life that she was working toward. voice-verified

That's a really good question because I think so many people can relate in different ways with different experiences, not just relationally. voice-verified

And one exercise I like to borrow from solution focused therapy is the miracle question. voice-verified

I use this a lot in my private practice. voice-verified
