    The Secret to Unshakable Inner Confidence and Self-Worth Aug 28, 2026
    Show notes

    Are you exhausted from over-giving and over-doing? Do you tend to look to others for validation or lean into people-pleasing behaviors? If so, you're in solid company. From childhood forward, many of us learn to tend to others' needs to feel valuable and worthy. And from my experience, these hardwired habits can foster perfectionism, enmeshment, and dependency--and even open the door to being exploited by thoughtless or self-serving people. Yet I've found that small changes over time can foster the awareness and inner strength you need to create healthy habits and set yourself free. Today, we're joined by a fabulous guest who specializes in helping others gain self-worth from within--instead of from others.


    Topics discussed include emotional outsourcing, perfectionism, self-care, self-love, habit change, midlife crisis, perimenopause, menopause, life changes, role changes, codependency, red flags, neurolinguistics, GABA, boundaries, marriage, children, parenting, healthy relationships, reciprocity, mutuality, and grief.

    Show notes

    Betrayal by a loved one--especially sexual infidelity--can be one of the most traumatic events a person experiences. And if you've been betrayed by a romantic partner, you know firsthand how devastating the blow can be. In fact, those who are betrayed often find themselves drowning in a sea of endless questions, overwhelming anxiety, and doubt. Despite the trauma they've endured, the betrayed individual often feels pressured to accept a partner's apology, invest in the relationship, and move on. But what if true recovery requires--first and foremost--rebuilding of the self? Today, we're joined by a renowned betrayal trauma specialist and author, Beth Fischer, who is the creator of The Betrayal Trauma Healing Method and The Integrity Journey. Beth will guide us into the art of healing from the deep pain of betrayal.


    Topics discussed include sexual betrayal, emotional betrayal, financial betrayal, infidelity, loss, grief, pain, trauma, PTSD, shame, marriage, relationship\s, intimacy, trust, self-trust, nervous system, dysregulation, betrayer, betrayed, marriage therapy, relationship therapy, individual therapy, healing, divorce, and self-work.
