Dagney explains why survivors carry the heavy burden of “I should've known better,” and why that belief is deeply unfair.

But by her early 20s, she was living it: working as a private chef on superyachts, flying private, managing million-dollar deals, and earning $10K/month. From the outside, it looked like a dream. But on the inside, she felt trapped, constantly on call, and completely disconnected from her own freedom and purpose. Now, she's an online business coach and mentor who helps ambitious women turn their lived experience into profitable, freedom-based businesses. Sara is known for helping her clients package their brilliance into high-impact offers, shift their money mindset, and finally stop trading time for money.

What up, Beasts. Welcome back to the show! In this episode, I had the absolute pleasure of talking with Dr. Jeannie May, whose story blew me away. She shared her near-death experience during the birth of her first child, which completely shifted how she saw life, medicine, and what it means to truly heal. That moment cracked her open to the fact that there's more to this world than the rigid, scientific lens she had been living through as a physician. Years later, on what she thought was just a casual breathwork training, she discovered a practice that allowed her to process emotions and traumas in a way years of talk therapy and medication never could. Hearing her describe how a single session felt like five years of therapy gave me chills.What I loved about our conversation is how she made something as simple as breathing feel like the most underutilized superpower we all have. We talked about everything from anxiety, depression, and stress, to how shallow chest breathing actually keeps our bodies stuck in “danger mode.” Dr. May shared practical tips like box breathing, 4-4-6 breath, and even the surprising sleep hack of taping your mouth at night to help your body rest and heal. And no, before you let your brain go there, this isn't some kinky thing. It's about better sleep, less snoring, and clearer sinuses. Honestly, this episode felt like an invitation to stop white-knuckling our way through stress and start using the power we already carry inside us.As always, I hope something lands with you today. I hope something you hear tugs at your heart strings and/or I hope you laugh.Bio: Dr. Jeannie May is a board-certified physician helping people regulate emotions and heal through the power of breath. With certifications in Internal Medicine, Geriatrics, Hospice and Palliative Care, and Addiction Medicine, she bridges Western science with ancient wisdom to combat chronic stress and its health effects.

Send us a textIf you constantly feel anxious, overthink every outcome, or worry about the people you love as a way to “keep them safe,” this episode is for you.In today's episode, we're unpacking the truth about chronic worry—how it shows up in your nervous system, how it forms as a subconscious coping mechanism after emotional abuse, and why it becomes a deeply ingrained habit that's hard to break. I'll also explain how worry often disguises itself as love, responsibility, or preparedness—but underneath, it's often rooted in fear, control, and a lack of emotional safety.We'll explore the hidden connection between worry and trauma, especially if you've survived narcissistic abuse, childhood trauma, toxic relationships, or are currently healing after divorce. You'll learn how your brain and body interpret uncertainty, and why your vibration, frequency, and thoughts directly impact what you experience in your reality.I'll also share a personal story about the anxiety I felt around my daughter driving and how it drove me into a spiral of tracking, overthinking, and emotional dysregulation until I used my own subconscious reprogramming tools to shift it.This episode offers practical insight into how to stop worrying, how to begin to rewire your nervous system, and how to let go of the belief that “if I don't worry, something bad will happen.”Support the showEmail: Allison@radiatenrise.comFree 30 Min Root Cause Call Join Radiate and Rise Together - Survivor Healing Community for Women To send a DM, visit Allison's profiles on Instagram and Facebookhttps://www.instagram.com/allisonkdagney/https://www.facebook.com/allisonkdagney/To learn more about my Programs visit the websitewww.radiatenrise.com*Formerly (The Emotional Abuse Recovery Podcast)

Send us a textIn this powerful episode, I'm breaking down 10 signs that you weren't actually seen or loved in your past relationship—you were used as a mirror for someone else's wounds. If you've experienced narcissistic abuse, especially at the hands of a covert or malignant narcissist, this will give you language for the confusion and emotional exhaustion you felt.We'll explore how narcissists project their deepest insecurities onto their partners by accusing you of what they're doing, punishing you for having needs, and gaslighting you into questioning your own reality. These behaviors cause trauma that impacts your nervous system, your sense of identity, and your ability to move forward after emotional abuse or divorce.This episode goes beyond awareness. I'll walk you through the trauma responses that keep you stuck in the cycle, like over-explaining, fawning, or playing small and offer shifts to help you begin your healing. Whether you're recovering from a toxic relationship, healing after divorce, or just starting to recognize the signs of narcissistic abuse, this episode will meet you where you are and help you move forward with clarity and power.If you're ready to stop being the mirror and start being you, this is where the healing begins.Support the showEmail: Allison@radiatenrise.comFree 30 Min Root Cause Call Join Radiate and Rise Together - Survivor Healing Community for Women To send a DM, visit Allison's profiles on Instagram and Facebookhttps://www.instagram.com/allisonkdagney/https://www.facebook.com/allisonkdagney/To learn more about my Programs visit the websitewww.radiatenrise.com*Formerly (The Emotional Abuse Recovery Podcast)

Send us a textOn this week's Classic Rewind episode, we're revisiting one of our most powerful conversations from the archive - because the message is just as relevant (and needed) today as it was when it first aired. My guest is Jessica Procini, founder of Escape from Emotional Eating.

Send us a textIn this episode, we're diving into something that's not talked about enough: the dark side of using AI as your go-to for emotional advice, relationship reflection, and healing support. While artificial intelligence can be a powerful tool for self-awareness and growth, it can also quietly reinforce unhealthy patterns, especially if you've experienced narcissistic abuse, emotional manipulation, or are healing after divorce.The truth is, AI is only as powerful as the prompts you give it. If you're unknowingly feeding it questions rooted in blame, victimhood, or black-and-white thinking, it will mirror those beliefs right back to you. And if it always agrees with you? That's not healing. That's an echo chamber disguised as empowerment and over time, it can reinforce the very behaviors and beliefs you're trying to outgrow.Whether you're processing the aftermath of emotional abuse, trying to rebuild after a toxic relationship, or navigating the grief of divorce, you need more than just validation, you need perspective. In this episode, I'll give you tips on how to use AI in a way that supports your nervous system, challenges your limiting beliefs, and actually moves you forward instead of keeping you stuck.I'll also share what to watch out for so you don't accidentally turn AI into a “best friend bot” that agrees with everything you say while you isolate yourself from real, healing human connection. This one's bold, honest, and exactly what we need in a world where technology is everywhere, but accountability still matters.Support the showEmail: Allison@radiatenrise.comFree 30 Min Root Cause Call Join Radiate and Rise Together - Survivor Healing Community for Women To send a DM, visit Allison's profiles on Instagram and Facebookhttps://www.instagram.com/allisonkdagney/https://www.facebook.com/allisonkdagney/To learn more about my Programs visit the websitewww.radiatenrise.com*Formerly (The Emotional Abuse Recovery Podcast)

For decades, liberals have assured us that history only moves in one direction—toward so-called "progress." They built their entire moral framework on the idea that the past was oppressive, the present is enlightened, and the future is an inevitable march toward egalitarian utopia. But lately, reality has been catching up with their delusions.Across the political spectrum, a once unthinkable idea has resurfaced: the repeal of the 19th Amendment. What was once the domain of obscure reactionary circles is now a growing conversation in mainstream politics. Even Project 2025—the policy blueprint that sent the left into a full-blown panic—was accused of making this one of its long-term goals. Why? Because history isn't just some endless progressive revolution. It is the unfolding of God's created order, and that order—no matter how much they resist it—always reasserts itself.We are witnessing the slow but certain return of nature. The distinctions between men and women, once blurred by Marxist ideology and evangelical cowardice, are becoming undeniable again. Feminism is collapsing under the weight of its own contradictions, and the left, which once mocked the idea of patriarchal governance, now finds itself terrified by the growing number of men and women rejecting their lies.For over a century, the progressives—alongside their naïve Christian allies—labored to erase the natural order, calling it "justice" while dismantling the very structures that held civilization together. But they were wrong. The world was never meant to be built on their abstractions. The past they despise is returning. And the real question is: Who will have the courage to welcome it?This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors.

Shortly before His ascension, our Savior commanded his followers to "Go and disciple all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit," and to teach them "all that [He] had commanded them." In pursuit of this command the Apostles and their successors commenced a multi-century struggle to preserve the faith once delivered and declare it to the nations. These men, our spiritual fathers, laid the foundations of the Church and preached the Gospel to every city they could, frequently inviting the wrath of the pagan authorities for upsetting the pax deorum, the peace of the gods. Most of the Apostles would be martyred, along with many later men like Polycarp of Smyrna—a bishop and disciple of John—and Cyprian of Carthage.But divine providence would change this state of affairs over a mere few decades. Not long after the Diocletian persecution of the early 4th century, Flavius Valerius Constantinus, or Constantine the Great, would ascend to dominance over the Western half of the Roman Empire. Constantine would adopt the Christian faith, and by consequence he would set off a chain of events that saw the increasing fulfillment of the prophecy of Isaiah, that the Law would go out from Zion, and the Lord would judge between the nations.His successors would solidify his Christian measures, culminating in the declaration of Nicene Christianity as the official faith of the empire through the Edict of Thessalonica, delivered by Emperor Theodosius I in A.D. 380. Though paganism did not disappear overnight, these decrees oriented the Roman state and eventually other European kingdoms towards the full dominance of Christianity in all parts of their kingdoms, to the point that even our mere knowledge of various pre-Christian folk religions is patchy—sometimes pure conjecture.It was by these means that the faith would dominate Europe, and through the European empires be exported across the globe. Further, the intellectual development of the faith that we enjoy today was done under the patronage of princes, guaranteeing the time, resources, and security necessary for theologians of old to exercise their gifts. Though the preaching of the Word was the absolutely essential spark that lit the flame of the faith, it was the Christian magistrate who carried the torch and spread the light into all spheres, and thus fulfilled the prophecy of David: Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors.

Hopefully in the last couple of weeks you heard about the controversial Colorado bill that aimed to make misgendering someone a crime. The bill met fierce resistance from local pastors and Christian leaders, but ultimately was signed into law by the governor about a week ago. Even though it was stripped of its most controversial portion, a clause that would have categorized parents as abusive for misgendering their children, the law is still one of the most aggressive in the land.The woke isn't going away. Progressives have bet the house on radical gender ideology and are committed to making the lives of ordinary Christian families hell for as long as they can. Other Colorado bills such as House Bill 1309 mandate that health care providers cover every possible necessity for gender affirming care, a set of surgeries and treatments that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars per person. One way or another, they will try to take your kids, close your business, and bankrupt your state, even if they lose in the end.So today we're going to discuss who is pushing these draconian laws, what their real purpose is, and the clever ways Christians are fighting back.This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors.
