    Series: Rewind & Rise – The Trigger and The Truth Podcast

    💡 Episode Summary:

    In this raw and revealing episode of The Trigger and The Truth, Tina White takes us back to the early days of her real estate career—when hustle met heartbreak, and the people who should’ve poured into her tried instead to dim her light.

    “Show You How To Do This, Hun, NOT” it’s a message for every woman who’s ever been sold a dream wrapped in a certificate, a cold dinner, and empty mentorship. Tina shares the real cost of trusting the wrong leaders, navigating shady brokerages, and trying to hold it all together behind curated Instagram success.

    From fake empowerment retreats to toxic "team leaders" who viewed her as competition instead of community, this episode exposes the reality of building something meaningful while fending off sabotage from the very people who should’ve been allies.

    This episode is for the women who’ve been underestimated, underpaid, and overextended and still show up.

    It’s not about perfection. It’s about truth. And this truth? Might just be yours too.

    What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

    ✅ How fear, perfectionism, and validation culture stalled Tina’s launch for years

    ✅ The truth about toxic female leadership and fake mentorship in business

    ✅ Why emotional intelligence isn’t optional—it’s survival

    ✅ The unspoken burnout of building while pretending you’re okay

    ✅ Lessons from failed partnerships, shady brokers, and $2K regrets

    Key Takeaway:

    You don’t need another polished coach or picture-perfect timeline.

    You need your own story—and the courage to tell it as it is.

  • DARVO in Real Life: The Power of Truth Part 4: Leading From the Scar, Not the Wound
    Jul 10 2025
    🎙️ Episode 26 -DARVO in Real Life: The Power of Truth Part 4: Leading From the Scar, Not the Wound

    July Spotlight – Mental Health & Entrepreneurship

    Host: Tina White, The Trigger and The Truth

    🎧Part 4 of 4: “Leading From The Scar”

    Overview:

    "Welcome back to The Trigger and The Truth. I’m your host, Tina White—and today, we wrap up the DARVO in Real Life series with the part most people never get to:

    Reclaiming your truth.

    Leading your life and business not from your pain, but from your power.

    Because survival is only the first step. Reclaiming your voice—that’s where the freedom is."

    PART 1: SURVIVAL IS NOT THE END OF THE STORY"I survived betrayal. I survived denial. I survived public lies and private heartbreak.But survival isn’t the end goal. It’s the starting line.I didn’t go through all that to stay small, bitter, or broken.I went through it so I could lead from a place of clarity and truth—and help somebody else realize they’re not crazy, they’re not alone, and they’re not what happened to them."PART 2: DARVO SURVIVORS—WHAT YOU NEED TO HEAR"If you’ve ever been gaslit, smeared, or silenced, let me say this to you plain:
    • You are not the villain in your survival story.
    • Their denial does not cancel your reality.
    • Their silence does not erase your healing.

    You do not need their permission to heal.You do not need their confession to move forward.Your truth is enough.You are enough."PART 3: LEADING FROM THE SCAR, NOT THE WOUND"For a long time, I led from my wound.I was hurt and angry—and every business decision, every relationship, every risk was filtered through that pain.But healing taught me this:Your scar is where the light gets in.I started making decisions from a healed place:
    • Protecting my peace like it was profit.
    • Choosing partnerships that honored my truth.
    • Walking away from spaces where my story had to be silenced to be accepted.

    PART 4: THE BUSINESS OF TRUTH-TELLING"And let’s talk business for a second—because your mental health isn’t separate from your success.When you build from your truth:
    • You attract aligned clients.
    • You set clear boundaries.
    • You stop wasting energy managing other people’s projections.

    Truth-telling is not just healing. It’s strategy."PART 5: THE POWER OF YOUR STORY"The truth is—your story isn’t just yours.Someone else is waiting on your courage to tell it.Because when you speak it out loud, you give permission for someone else to release their shame.I’m not here because my story is perfect.I’m here because I survived it.And you can too."PART 6: UPLIFTING TAKEAWAY – THE TRUTH OUTLASTS THE LIE"So, here’s your reminder:The lie may be loud.The smear campaign may be convincing.The silence from the people you thought would stand with you may feel deafening.But your truth will outlast all of it.Keep building. Keep healing. Keep speaking.Because what they denied doesn’t define...

  • DARVO in Real Life: Rebuilding from the Rubble Part 3: Boundaries, Business, and Becoming Whole Again
    Jul 9 2025
    🎙️ Episode 25 -DARVO in Real Life: Rebuilding from the Rubble

    July Spotlight – Mental Health & Entrepreneurship

    Host: Tina White, The Trigger and The Truth

    🎧Part 3 of 4: “Boundaries, Business, and Becoming Whole Again"Overview:

    "Welcome back to The Trigger and The Truth. I’m Tina White, and this is Part 3 of our July Spotlight: DARVO in Real Life.

    The betrayal happened. The lies spread. The isolation set in. And then... life kept moving.

    But how do you rebuild a life—and a business—from the ruins of what someone else tried to destroy?

    Today, we talk about the slow, painful, necessary work of starting over."

    PART 1: HITTING ROCK BOTTOM SILENTLY"See, nobody talks about what happens after the betrayal loses its headlines.When the gossip dies down but the pain remains.When the business invoices stop coming in but the bills still do.I hit a wall.My energy was gone. My passion for my business faded. And honestly? I didn’t trust myself anymore.That’s what DARVO steals first—your clarity.I was showing up to work like a robot, but inside I was shut down."
    PART 2: THE DECISION TO GO BACK TO THERAPY"One morning, I woke up and said, ‘If I don’t deal with this, it’s going to deal with me.’I went back to therapy—not because I was weak, but because I was tired of carrying a story that wasn’t mine to carry.Therapy wasn’t about forgetting what happened.It was about finding language for the confusion.It taught me to stop making excuses for people’s silence.To stop waiting for my abuser to fix what they broke.And most of all—to build a life that no longer depended on their acknowledgment."PART 3: REBUILDING THE BUSINESS FROM A PLACE OF HEALING"Rebuilding my business wasn’t just about new clients.It was about new boundaries.I started protecting my peace like my paycheck depended on it—because it did.I let go of draining partnerships.I created systems to prevent burnout.I stopped saying yes out of guilt.And little by little, the business started coming back.But this time, the business was built from clarity, not chaos."PART 4: REDEFINING SUCCESS AFTER TRAUMA"I used to think success was about grinding until you made it.Now I know it’s about being whole while you build.I don’t want a six-figure business if it costs me my peace.I don’t want public applause if it comes with private breakdowns.Healing taught me to redefine what winning looks like.Sometimes success is the quiet moment when you realize:I’m not broken anymore. I’m rebuilding."PART 5: WHAT I LEARNED (AND UNLEARNED)

    Lessons learned in the rubble:

    • Stop waiting for people to fix what they refuse to admit they broke.
    • Boundaries aren’t walls—they’re doors that only open for peace.
    • You can rebuild your business stronger after betrayal—but you have to rebuild yourself first.

    What I unlearned:

    • The need for validation from people who benefited from your silence.
    • The...
