For those that are new around here, I release bonus episodes that serve a niche part of my audience, so if this content is something that doesn’t fit what you’re looking for, check out the other episodes that dropped this week or join me back here next Tuesday for a conversation that you don’t want to miss!

Intimate betrayal doesn’t just break trust—it can shatter your sense of reality, safety, and self. In this powerful conversation, Tammy Gustafson, author of Broken to Brave, joins me to unpack what happens after the truth comes out and why betrayal is experienced as real trauma in both the body and the mind.

Drawing from her personal experience and professional insight, Tammy explains the emotional free fall that often follows betrayal, how to identify where you are in the healing journey, and why rushing to “fix” the relationship can actually slow recovery. We talk about rebuilding self-worth after betrayal, avoiding common healing traps, and making grounded decisions about the future—whether that includes repairing the relationship or choosing a new path forward.

When the topic of movement arises, it often evokes thoughts of exercise. However, we tend to underestimate the constant positioning and motion our bodies undergo throughout the day, affecting our muscles and joints. In today’s episode, author and biomechanist, Katy Bowman and I delved into the concept of "rethinking our position" and explored strategies for nurturing healthier movements of our body parts. (This conversation is an insightful follow-up to her first time on the show, back on EP192.)
