    242. When Porn Shatters Trust with David Dodini

    27/04/2026 | 40 mins.
    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    When trust breaks like this… it touches everything. How safe you feel. How you see yourself. Even how you hear God.
    In this week's episode, I sit down with therapist David Dodini who works in this space every day. And we talk about what’s actually going on beneath the surface.
    Not the shame.
    Not the assumptions.
    The real reasons this pattern sticks… and why so many women end up carrying responsibility that was never theirs.
    We talk about betrayal, what your reaction means (and what it doesn’t), and how to move forward without losing yourself in the process.
    If you’ve ever wondered, “Is this my fault?”… start here.
    You are not the cause of his struggle. And you are not the solution either.

    241. Healing From Emotional Abuse with Becky Bytheway Wengreen LMFT

    20/04/2026 | 46 mins.
    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    Sometimes the hardest part isn’t leaving.
    It’s realizing something is wrong in the first place.
    You just feel… off. Confused. Second-guessing yourself. Walking on eggshells and calling it “being patient.”
    In this episode, I sit down with Becky Bytheway Wengreen, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, who shares her personal story of living through emotional abuse and what it actually looks like when it’s not obvious.

    240. Healing Through Forgiveness with the Sister Connection

    13/04/2026 | 25 mins.
    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    Some pain doesn’t feel forgivable.
    Not because you don’t want peace… but because it feels unfair to let it go.
    In this Sister Connection episode, two women share what it actually looks like to wrestle with forgiveness when the hurt runs deep.
    One is navigating forgiveness after years of abuse from her mother.
    The other is grieving the loss of her 17-year-old daughter from a preventable accident.
    This isn’t surface-level “just forgive and move on.”
    This is about what happens when anger, grief, faith, and healing all collide.
    One takeaway:
    Forgiveness isn’t about excusing what happened. It’s about choosing what you carry forward… and what you finally set down.

    239. Forgiveness Without Excusing the Hurt

    06/04/2026 | 14 mins.
    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    Forgiveness gets talked about a lot.
    But for many women, it feels like pressure. Like you’re supposed to “move on” from something that still hurts… or make peace with something that never felt okay in the first place.
    In this episode, we’re clearing that up.
    You’ll learn what forgiveness actually is… what it is not… and how to begin releasing the weight of resentment without minimizing your pain or removing wise boundaries.
    Because healing doesn’t come from pretending it didn’t hurt.
    It comes from finally giving your heart permission to stop carrying it alone.
    There’s also a free worksheet linked for you to process this at your own pace.
    If this topic has ever felt confusing, heavy, or impossible… come take a listen!

    238. After the Kids Grow Up: Reclaiming YOU With Dr. Christy Kane

    23/03/2026 | 29 mins.
    Send us a text message if you have a question you want answered on the podcast.
    There’s a moment many women don’t see coming.
    The house gets quieter.
    The kids grow up.
    Roles begin to shift.
    And suddenly you find yourself wondering:
    Who am I now?
    For years you’ve poured your heart into motherhood, marriage, family, and service. And while those things matter deeply, they can quietly become the only place your identity lives.
    So when life transitions happen, it can feel disorienting. Lonely. Even a little scary.
    In this episode, psychologist Dr. Christy Kane and I talk about what it looks like to rediscover yourself during seasons of change.
    We talk about the emotions many women experience but rarely say out loud. The quiet grief. The anxiety. The sense of losing yourself.
    But we also talk about something hopeful.
    Rebuilding identity.
    Protecting yourself.
    And learning how to create purpose again without abandoning the faith and values that matter most.
    If you’re in a season of change or can feel one coming, this conversation might be exactly what your heart needs.
