Why Feeling Good About Yourself Matters After Betrayal with Jasmin El Kordi of Bluelene After betrayal, it can feel like every thought, every conversation, and every part of your life gets hijacked by infidelity. You are trying to understand what happened, protect yourself legally and financially, regulate your nervous system, and figure out what comes next. But what if part of healing is also allowing yourself moments of normalcy, confidence, curiosity, and even fun? In this episode, Lora Cheadle talks about the importance of titrating betrayal recovery so your entire life does not become consumed by pain, processing, and problem-solving. She shares why simple experiences such as listening to music, dancing, learning something new, taking care of your skin, or feeling good in your body can help interrupt obsessive loops and support nervous system regulation. Lora is joined by Jasmin El Kordi of Bluelene Advanced Skincare for a conversation about stress, aging, confidence, skincare, and the science behind topical methylene blue. Together, they explore how stress can affect the skin, why looking in the mirror after betrayal can feel so painful, and how caring for yourself on the outside can sometimes help you reconnect with yourself on the inside. This is not about vanity. It is about remembering that you are still alive, still worthy, still allowed to feel beautiful, and still allowed to enjoy your life while you heal. Top 3 Takeaways Betrayal recovery has to be titrated. Healing matters, but not every moment of your life has to revolve around infidelity, deep processing, or hard conversations. Feeling good about yourself supports regulation. Confidence, beauty, laughter, music, movement, and small acts of self-care can help your nervous system exhale. Your body knows when something feels aligned. Whether you are making decisions about your relationship, your work, your healing, or your next chapter, your body often registers truth before your mind can explain it. Favorite Quote “Not all betrayal recovery has to be specifically about betrayal recovery.” About Jasmin El Kordi Jasmin El Kordi is a highly accomplished entrepreneur and senior executive with over 30 years of experience in the technology, telecommunications, and wellness industries. Prior to co-founding Bluelene, she held executive and leadership roles at Fortune 500 companies including Sprint, Cisco, and NCR, as well as serving as Vice President for the European consumer goods company Prisma Natural. After graduating Summa cum Laude from the University of Maryland, she shifted her focus to the intersection of longevity science and personal care. As CEO, Jasmin has led Mblue Labs from a university research project into an award-winning, globally recognized biotech platform. Bluelene  is a patented, biotech-driven skincare and hair growth brand built on the anti-aging powers of Methylene Blue The Science: Originally researched as a treatment for Progeria (a rapid-aging childhood disease) at the University of Maryland, scientist Kan Cao discovered that Methylene Blue continuously cycles to support cellular defense and energy. It continuously stimulates skin cells to produce collagen and elastin while extending the healthy lifespan of the cells themselves. The Benefits: Unlike traditional anti-aging ingredients like retinol—which can encourage cell death—Methylene Blue actively repairs DNA damage, reduces oxidative stress, and significantly boosts skin hydration and firmness. Product Line: Bluelene offers a wide range of products tailored to all ages, from Gen-Zers preventing damage to older demographics focusing on deep anti-aging. The line features bestsellers like their Daily Moisturizer, Eye Cream, and an elasticity cream specifically formulated to maintain skin structure.

What happens when what you feel doesn't line up with what's true?In this episode, I sit down with Erica Gwynn — author of That's Just Not True: How to Replace the Lies You Didn't Know You Believed with God's Unchanging Truth — for an honest conversation on discerning truth in a world full of “half-truths.” We talk about how feelings aren't facts, finding peace in God's sovereignty through suffering, and why trusting Him often means surrendering control of the story we thought we'd live.Erica shares her journey of motherhood, faith, and healing after her daughter's premature birth — and how God used a painful season to reveal His purpose. We also dive into the lie of manifestation, the tension between free will and divine direction, and what it means to live with intentional rhythms instead of constant hustle.If you've ever wrestled with doubt, control, or wondering whether you “missed your shot,” this conversation will remind you that God's plan is never late, never wasted, and always good.Suggested ResourcesErica Ligenza | Instagram | Thrive PodcastThat's Just Not True — Erica Ligenza Gwynn (pre-order) Create a Life You Love — Stephanie May WilsonWalking with God Through Pain and Suffering — Timothy KellerThe Gospel Coalition: “You Can't Manifest Your Life"Send me a text!This episode is proudly sponsored by: SizzlefishLet's talk about fueling your body with the best nature has to offer.

When Betrayal Hits the Body: Sleep, Stress, Hormones & Healing With Karyn Shanks, MD Betrayal doesn't just affect your heart and mind — it affects your body too. In this compassionate conversation, Lora sits down with physician and functional medicine expert Dr. Karyn Shanks to explore the very real physical impact of betrayal trauma, chronic stress, and emotional overwhelm. Together, they discuss how trauma affects sleep, hormones, inflammation, energy, digestion, nervous system regulation, and overall health — and why these responses are not signs that you're weak or broken, but signs that your body is trying to protect you. This episode also explores self-compassion, the stories women carry around productivity and worthiness, and how healing begins when we stop fighting our bodies and start listening to them with curiosity and care. Top 3 Takeaways Betrayal trauma affects the entire body — including sleep, hormones, digestion, energy, and nervous system regulation. Your body is not betraying you. Many physical symptoms are intelligent survival responses. Healing does not require perfection. Small moments of rest, nourishment, support, and compassion matter deeply.

Stop Waiting for the Map to Appear Why clarity comes through movement — and why you need a path, not just more information. After betrayal, it is natural to want the whole map before you move. You want to know if your marriage can be saved, if they are telling the truth, whether you will regret staying or leaving, and if you will ever feel like yourself again. But what if the map does not appear until you move? In this episode, Lora Cheadle shares a story from her 10-year podcast anniversary trip to New York, where her GPS kept spinning and recalculating until she finally started walking. That moment became the perfect metaphor for betrayal recovery: standing still does not always create clarity. Sometimes movement creates clarity. Through stories from New York, Broadway, The Wizard of Oz, Wicked, and her own betrayal recovery journey, Lora explores why healing requires more than listening, learning, or waiting to see what your partner will do. Healing requires a path, a plan, support, and the willingness to take the next step. If you are tired of spiraling, eroding your boundaries, betraying yourself to keep the peace, or waiting for someone else to become clear before you reclaim your own life, this episode will help you understand why it is time to stop waiting for the map to appear and take the path. Top 3 Takeaways The map may not appear until you move. After betrayal, it is tempting to wait for certainty before taking action. But clarity often comes through movement, not before it. Listening is not the same as having a plan. Podcasts, books, therapy, and support groups can all be helpful, but gathering information is not the same as walking a structured recovery path. You do not have to walk the path alone. Healing after betrayal requires heart, head, courage, support, and action. Like Dorothy gathering companions along the Yellow Brick Road, you need people and a process to help you move forward. Favorite Quote “The map will not appear until you move.

Welcome to the Personal Development Trailblazers Podcast! In today's episode, we're talking about how to build self-trust so you can confidently make life decisions and create a life you truly love. Julie York is a Self-Trust Coach who helps women rebuild the one thing that changes everything: trust in themselves.Her work sits at the intersection of nervous system regulation, thought work, and values-based decision making. And it starts from a diagnosis most coaches miss. What looks like indecisiveness, overthinking, or lack of confidence is often something deeper: a woman who was conditioned out of trusting herself. By relationships. By a lifetime of being taught to look outward for permission rather than inward. Until overriding what she feels doesn't just feel normal, it feels responsible.Julie knows this territory from the inside. After leaving a domestically violent relationship, she spent years rebuilding her own self-trust from the inside out; and discovered that it isn't something you either have or you don't. It's something that gets deliberately dismantled. And it can be deliberately rebuilt.She now works with women who are functioning on the outside and lost on the inside, helping them come back to themselves, back to their own knowing, and start building a life that actually feels like theirs.Connect with Julie Here: https://www.facebook.com/julie.york.selftrustcoach/https://www.facebook.com/JYSelfTrustCoach/https://www.instagram.com/julie.york.selftrustresethttps://www.tiktok.com/@julie.york.selftrusthttp://Lifeafterdv.comGrab the freebie here: The Self-Trust Journal: http://self-trust-journal-podcast.subscribepage.io===================================If you enjoyed this episode, remember to hit the like button and subscribe.

A Decade of FLAUNT!: Truth-Telling, Betrayal, and Defining Yourself What ten years of podcasting taught me about exposure, revelation, and reclaiming who you are. FLAUNT! is officially ten years old, and this anniversary episode is both a celebration and a reflection on what a decade of truth-telling has revealed. When Lora first started the podcast, she believed she was happily married and thought the show would focus primarily on empowerment, wellness, sensuality, confidence, visibility, humor, spirituality, and the art of living freely. Using burlesque as a metaphor, she explored the tension between concealing and revealing, the ways women cover or enhance parts of themselves, and how personal growth invites us to strip away roles, labels, scripts, and expectations. But over the past ten years, the show evolved in ways Lora never expected. Betrayal, burnout, affair recovery, nervous-system capacity, self-trust, and identity reconstruction became central themes. What once felt like a joyful personal-development conversation became something deeper and more urgent after betrayal exposed the difference between revealing yourself by choice and being exposed by someone else's actions. In this episode, Lora asks one of the core questions that has shaped both the podcast and her TEDx work: Who gets to define you? She explores how we come to know ourselves through other people's judgments, labels, and expectations. Whether we were called the difficult child, the fixer, the shy one, the loud one, the good wife, the good mom, or the capable one, many of us build identities around what others have reflected back to us. Betrayal can rip those identities away and force us to ask who we are without the roles we once relied on. Lora also reflects on the complicated nature of anniversaries. Some anniversaries are joyful, while others mark grief, shock, loss, or the end of a life we thought we were living. A podcast anniversary, a wedding anniversary, a D-Day anniversary, or a divorce anniversary can all bring mixed emotions. Rather than forcing those feelings to make sense, Lora invites listeners to honor the complexity of time, truth, grief, gratitude, and growth. This episode also explores the importance of being proud of yourself, not only for the big wins, but for the quiet moments of survival, self-reflection, honesty, and repair. Lora discusses the difference between blame and self-awareness, especially when betrayed partners look back and recognize places where they were exhausted, over-functioning, resentful, controlling, self-sacrificing, or disconnected from their own truth. That reflection does not excuse betrayal or make the betrayed partner responsible for someone else's choices. Instead, it creates an opportunity for reclamation. Lora shares how resentment often reveals where we performed a role no one actually asked us to perform. Whether it was keeping the perfect house, being endlessly helpful, managing everyone else's needs, or sacrificing ourselves to be seen as good, resentment can become a doorway into truth. It asks us to notice where we abandoned ourselves, where we hid our needs, and where we expected others to appreciate something we never clearly chose or communicated. The episode also addresses a tender truth: sometimes we do not face reality because we do not yet have the capacity, safety, resources, support, legal clarity, emotional maturity, or nervous-system strength to deal with it. Humans minimize, rationalize, distract, stay busy, and bury their heads in the sand when the truth would require a decision, they are not ready or resourced enough to make. This can happen in the betrayed partner, and it can also happen in the partner who cheats. An affair may become a distraction from pain, dissatisfaction, or unresolved inner issues, but while that may explain behavior, it does not excuse the harm. Ultimately, this anniversary episode is about truth as a doorway, not a weapon. It is about learning to speak truth to yourself first, then to others. It is about knowing when to show up, when to rest, when to ask better questions, when to respect someone else's capacity, and when to stop outsourcing your identity to someone else's judgment, betrayal, or approval. After ten years of FLAUNT!, Lora returns to one central truth: someone else's judgment is not a verdict. Someone else's betrayal is not your identity. Truth may strip away fantasy and denial first, but it also creates the possibility of real self-definition. Top 3 Takeaways There is a difference between being exposed and revealing yourself. Betrayal exposes you without your consent. Healing is the process of choosing what you reveal, what you reclaim, what you protect, and what you no longer allow to define you. Someone else's judgment is not a verdict. Much of our identity is shaped through labels, roles, and reflections from others, but those labels do not have to define us forever. Confidence is the ability to stay connected to who you are, even when someone else misunderstands, judges, betrays, or fails to value you. Truth requires capacity, and avoidance does not erase responsibility. Sometimes we do not face the truth because we do not yet have the resources, safety, support, or emotional capacity to deal with it. That may explain why people minimize, distract, rationalize, or avoid, but it does not excuse harm. Truth becomes healing when it is used as a doorway into responsibility, support, and reclamation.

Healing is when you begin choosing what comes off and what goes back on.” “Sometimes we bury our head in the sand because looking directly at the truth would require us to make a decision that we are either not ready to make or not resourced enough to make.” LOVE THE SHOW?

In this family-themed episode, Denise Ilitch sits down with her daughter Brooke Lites and "daughter-in-love" Isabella Tobias Lites. Brooke, a U-M psychology grad with a JD and a master's in clinical psychology, traded a path toward law for work in animal care and canine management in metro Detroit. Isabella spent 22 years as a competitive ice dancer, ranked 12th in the world, and skated at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics for Lithuania and later Israel. They talk about building a life you love, what elite competition teaches you about friendship and self-worth, raising kids with composure, responsible dog adoption through groups like the Michigan Humane Society and Detroit Dog Rescue, and why education and authenticity hold a family together.

Hey Heal Squad! If you've ever wondered how people find the strength to keep going after life completely changes, this episode is for you. Today, Maria sits down with Kelly Rizzo…multimedia personality, founder of Eat Travel Rock, and host of the Comfort Food podcast. Many of you may also know Kelly as the wife of the late Bob Saget, the beloved comedian and Full House icon who passed away unexpectedly in 2022.What started as a conversation about coffee (yes, Maria and Kelly compare their favorite coffee orders!) quickly turned into a powerful discussion about purpose, love, resilience, and what happens when life doesn't go according to plan. Before Kelly became a voice for people navigating grief, she was rebuilding her own life… spending more than a decade chasing her passions for food, travel, and music—often questioning whether she should keep going. Kelly shares why success isn't about followers, fame, or going viral. It's about passion, consistency, patience, and building something meaningful one step at a time. Then we get into the love story. Kelly shares how Bob first slid into her DMs, why she initially resisted dating him, and how he spent four nights winning over not just her—but her entire friend group. In classic Bob fashion, he even brought John Mayer along on one of their early dates to help give Kelly the official stamp of approval. It's funny, sweet, unexpected, and a side of Bob that most people never got to see. Kelly also opens up about the relationship they built together, why she believes Bob had finally found the love he had been searching for, and the moments that made their marriage so special. And just before we pause for Part 2, Kelly shares the beginning of the story that changed everything—the final night she spoke to Bob, an eerie connection to an episode of And Just Like That, and the feeling that something wasn't quite right. We'll leave it there for now. But in all honesty, this is a beautiful conversation about taking chances on love, trusting your path, and remembering what truly matters. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS When Life Falls Apart, A New Life Begins: Kelly never planned to become a voice for people navigating grief. But her story is proof that sometimes the biggest detours end up leading us exactly where we're supposed to go. Slow Growth Builds Lasting Success: Kelly spent more than a decade creating content, chasing opportunities, and trusting her passions without any guarantee it would pay off. Her story is a reminder that meaningful success is usually built slowly, one consistent step at a time. The Right Person May Not Be Who You Expected: Kelly never imagined she'd end up falling in love with Bob Saget. Their story is a reminder that love doesn't always fit the picture we've created in our minds—and sometimes the greatest relationships begin when we stop trying to control the outcome.

What if manifestation wasn't about working harder... but about playing more? In this inspiring conversation, Jen sits down with scientist, author, and energy healer Dr Maria Inglesby to explore the connection between energy, abundance, intuition, and manifestation. Maria shares how a background in science eventually led her to question everything she thought she knew about reality, opening the door to a deeper understanding of energy and conscious creation. Together they discuss why we often manifest other people's beliefs instead of our own desires, how feeling states shape our reality, and why playfulness may be one of the most overlooked manifestation tools available. If you've ever felt stuck, disconnected from your intuition, or frustrated that manifestation isn't working the way you hoped, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on how to reconnect with your own inner guidance and create from a place of joy. In This Episode We Discuss: Why manifestation begins with questioning the rules The difference between manifestation and materialization How your feelings influence what you attract Why focusing on lack creates more lack Simple exercises to shift into abundance The importance of self-appreciation in manifestation Learning to trust your inner compass How playfulness opens the door to new possibilities Why intuition may be protecting and guiding you Becoming the guardian of your own thoughts and energy Connect with Maria

Don't Let Their Affair Cost You Twice-How to Avoid the Legal, Emotional, and Practical Mistakes That Can Come Back to Bite You After infidelity, it's easy to make decisions from shock, fear, anger, and survival mode. But some of the choices you make in the days and weeks after discovery can create a second wave of pain—legally, emotionally, financially, and relationally. In this episode, betrayal recovery expert and attorney Lora Cheadle shares the biggest mistakes betrayed partners make after infidelity, from stalking and social media blowups to using children as investigators, obsessively searching for answers, and managing a partner's recovery. Most importantly, she explains how to protect your future self while navigating one of life's most devastating experiences. If you've been betrayed and don't know what to do next, this episode will help you slow down, regulate your nervous system, and avoid letting the affair cost you twice. Top 3 Takeaways Your First Job Isn't Deciding Whether to Stay or Leave When betrayal is discovered, your brain immediately wants certainty, answers, and relief. But your first responsibility isn't making life-changing decisions—it's protecting yourself from decisions made in a shocked, terrified, and traumatized state. The Biggest Mistake Isn't What They Did—It's Abandoning Yourself The deepest trap after betrayal is becoming consumed by your partner's actions, recovery, and choices while neglecting your own healing. Recovery begins when you stop obsessing about them and start rebuilding trust in yourself. Don't Let the Affair Cost You Twice The affair is painful enough. Don't create a second wave of damage through impulsive legal, financial, social media, or emotional decisions made from survival mode. Before you act, ask yourself: Will this help me six months from now, or is it helping me feel better for six minutes? Favorite Quotes "The biggest mistake is abandoning yourself while trying to figure out what they're doing."

Most attorneys don't lack ambition. They're drowning in small, unresolved issues that quietly drain their energy, focus, and peace of mind. The overflowing inbox. The postponed difficult conversation. The underperforming team member. The health goals that never happen. Individually they seem minor, but together they create constant overwhelm. In this episode of Great Practice, Great Life, Steve Riley talks with Mark Powers, founder of Atticus, about a powerful yet simple solution: eliminating your "tolerations." Discover why overwhelm comes less from having too much to do and more from tolerating things below your standards, and learn practical ways to remove hidden drains so you can regain clarity, energy, and control. If you're a driven attorney who feels stuck or overwhelmed despite working hard, this episode shows you how removing what's draining you is often the fastest path to a great practice and a great life. ___________ In this episode, you will hear: A clear way to identify the hidden tolerations draining your practice and personal life Why naming a problem is often the most powerful first step Practical strategies to eliminate what's weighing you down The powerful connection between raising your standards and increasing your success When to eliminate, delegate, or consciously accept a toleration ___________ Subscribe & Review Never miss an episode.

What Are You Under the Influence Of? How Fear, Trauma & Other People's Opinions Keep You Stuck After Betrayal After betrayal, everyone seems to have advice. Leave. Stay. Fight for your marriage. Run. Forgive. Never trust again. But when your nervous system is overwhelmed, it's easy to absorb other people's certainty instead of listening to your own truth. In this episode, Lora explores how betrayal trauma increases suggestibility, why fear spreads so quickly, and how to reclaim your ability to think clearly, trust yourself, and make decisions from wisdom rather than panic. Drawing from her experience as an attorney, clinical hypnotherapist, and betrayal recovery coach, Lora explains why knowledge reduces fear, how hypnosis can help break the trance of trauma, and why discernment—not certainty—is the real path to healing. If you've ever wondered whether you're making decisions based on your own truth or someone else's story, this episode is for you. Top 3 Takeaways Betrayal Trauma Makes You More Suggestible. When your nervous system is overwhelmed, your brain naturally seeks certainty. That's why it's easy to absorb other people's opinions, fears, and experiences instead of trusting yourself. Discernment Is Different Than Fear. Fear demands immediate answers. Discernment allows reality to reveal itself over time. Healing isn't about becoming hypervigilant—it's about staying connected to yourself while the truth unfolds. Knowledge Creates Calm. Understanding your legal, financial, emotional, and relational options doesn't force a decision. It reduces fear, increases clarity, and helps you make choices from a place of confidence rather than panic. Favorite Quotes "When we're desperate for certainty, we start borrowing certainty from other people." "Discernment is the ability to stay connected to yourself while reality reveals itself." "Fear shrinks your world. Knowledge expands it." "Healing isn't about becoming fearless. It's about learning how to hear yourself again underneath the noise." LOVE THE SHOW?

If your income vanished tomorrow, would you intentionally recreate the life you're living right now? That's not just a thought experiment... it's the ultimate test of your self-sovereignty.  Too many high-achieving moms are stuck in the "rat race" of circumstance, trading their most precious asset - time - for a version of success that doesn't actually make them feel alive. That's why I'm taking you back to the moment the rug was pulled out from under me, and I had to decide: keep chasing a career, or build my own brand of Money Making Magic that actually funds my freedom.  We are crushing the "this or that" lie. You don't have to choose between financial abundance and fulfillment. You get to choose both.  Push play, let's recalibrate, and let's design a reality you are obsessed with waking up to.   PS. Let's align your inner world with the life you truly want

Will I Ever Feel Normal Again After Betrayal? One of the most common questions women ask after betrayal is: “Will I ever feel like myself again?” Because betrayal trauma and infidelity don't just break your heart — they disrupt your nervous system, your identity, your sense of safety, your routines, and even your perception of reality. In this honest and deeply grounding episode, Lora shares what healing after betrayal actually looks like — not the polished Instagram version, but the real, nuanced, nonlinear truth of nervous system recovery, emotional healing, and rebuilding self-trust after infidelity. She explores: why betrayal feels so destabilizing what trauma does to the brain and body why healing is quieter and more subtle than most people expect the real signs you're healing how to stop losing yourself in someone else's healing why peace eventually matters more than certainty what it truly means to stay true to yourself after betrayal This episode is compassionate, practical, validating, and full of the kind of honest insight women desperately need when they wonder if they'll ever feel okay again. Top 3 Takeaways Healing after betrayal is not about “never being triggered again” — it's about building the capacity to feel, regulate, recover, and stay connected to yourself. One of the biggest signs of healing is when betrayal stops being the center of your identity and you begin caring about your future again. Real healing is often quiet and gradual: sleeping through the night, laughing unexpectedly, trusting yourself faster, and choosing peace over constant certainty.

Why Marriage Counseling Can Backfire After Infidelity After betrayal, almost everyone says the same thing: “You two need counseling.” But what if rushing into couples therapy immediately after infidelity is actually making things worse? In this deeply honest and eye-opening episode, Lora Cheadle shares why betrayal is not simply a marriage problem — it's a nervous system injury, an identity crisis, and a reality-shattering trauma that requires stabilization before relationship repair. Drawing from her own experience recovering after her husband's multiple affairs, Lora explains why so many betrayed partners leave counseling feeling blamed, overwhelmed, emotionally flooded, or even more disconnected from themselves. She explores the “assumption trap” that infidelity is caused by relationship problems, why traditional couples counseling can unintentionally backfire early on, and what healing-focused support should actually prioritize first. This episode is not anti-therapy and it's not anti-marriage. It's a compassionate, trauma-informed conversation about why healing begins with you — your safety, your nervous system, your clarity, and your self-trust. If you've been betrayed and feel confused, pressured, dysregulated, or like you've completely lost yourself, this episode will help you understand why. Top 3 Takeaways Infidelity is not just a marriage problem. Betrayal shatters your sense of reality, identity, trust, and nervous system safety. Before working on the relationship, the betrayed partner often needs stabilization, orientation, and emotional safety first. Traditional couples counseling can unintentionally backfire early on. When therapy focuses too quickly on “relationship dynamics,” many betrayed partners leave feeling blamed, self-monitoring, emotionally flooded, or pressured to fix the relationship before their own trauma has been addressed. Healing starts with rebuilding yourself — not rushing decisions. Before deciding whether to stay, leave, forgive, reconcile, or rebuild the marriage, it's essential to regulate the nervous system, reconnect with self-trust, and create clarity from a grounded place instead of survival mode. Favorite Quotes “Infidelity is not a marriage problem. It is an individual's problem.” “People cheat because they can't meet their own needs.” “Marriage counseling assumes two regulated adults discussing relationship dynamics.” “Betrayal involves one deeply dysregulated person trying to survive the collapse of their reality.” “It's not about pretending everything is okay. It's about rebuilding you and your truth.” “When you're bleeding out, you stop the blood flow first.” “You don't need to rush your healing. But you do need LOVE THE SHOW?

Liz Long didn't set out to become a full-time traveler. After graduating college and starting a publishing career in Boston, she found herself burned out, anxious, and questioning the version of success she had been chasing. What started with pet sitting and budget travel eventually turned into a lifestyle built around freedom, wellness, meaningful relationships, and intentional living. Since then, Liz has traveled across more than 25 countries while finding creative ways to make long-term travel financially sustainable. In this episode, we talk about the realities of solo travel, loneliness, money, community, wellness, and what it actually takes to build a life you genuinely love instead of waiting for “someday.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/globetrotters-podcast--5023679/support.

Guest After 11 years at IBM, Brooke Erol left a "great job on paper" to pursue a more aligned, purpose-driven life. She founded Your Best Life Inc. to help professionals find meaning at work, and later Purposeful Business to support leaders in building people-centered organizations. She is the author of More Than A Paycheck and Create a Life You Love, and speaks globally on leadership and purposeful work. Summary In this conversation, career coach and author Brooke Erol explores the changing nature of work, fulfillment, and identity in an era shaped by burnout, layoffs, and artificial intelligence. Drawing from her own experience at IBM, she reflects on realizing early in her career that many people were "chasing the weekend" rather than finding meaning in their work. That realization eventually led her to write More Than a Paycheck, a guide designed to help individuals develop greater self-awareness and agency in their careers. Brooke argues that self-awareness is foundational to meaningful work, yet modern life leaves little room for reflection. She encourages people to intentionally create time to examine what energizes them, what no longer serves them, and which limiting beliefs may be shaping their choices. Throughout the discussion, she emphasizes that traditional career formulas—go to college, get a corporate job, retire happily—are no longer reliable in today's unstable job market. The conversation also examines the disruptive impact of AI, especially on younger workers and recent graduates, while highlighting the growing value of trade and skilled labor careers. Brooke encourages people to remain adaptable, continuously learn new skills, and consider side projects or entrepreneurial paths alongside traditional employment. The discussion closes with reflections on retirement, purpose, and identity. Brooke and Jeff agree that fulfillment comes not from stopping work entirely, but from continuing to contribute, learn, connect, and pursue activities that make life meaningful. The Essential Point Brooke's central message is that people must take greater ownership of their careers and lives by developing self-awareness, questioning inherited assumptions about work, and intentionally pursuing work that aligns with who they are. She also stresses that fulfillment and purpose are not luxuries reserved for retirement—they are essential parts of a healthy, sustainable life at every stage.

Healing Betrayal Trauma: EMDR, IFS & the Real Reasons People Cheat Infidelity doesn't happen in a vacuum. And healing after betrayal isn't just about “getting over it” or learning to trust again. In this deeply compassionate and eye-opening conversation, Lora sits down with marriage and sex therapist Todd Creager to explore the real roots of infidelity, betrayal trauma, emotional safety, and lasting healing. Together, they unpack how childhood wounds, attachment injuries, shame, hypervigilance, and nervous system survival patterns shape both betrayal and recovery. You'll also learn how EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) can help both betrayed partners and betrayers process trauma safely, understand their protective patterns, and move toward genuine healing and connection. This episode is not about excusing betrayal. It's about understanding it deeply enough to heal. Whether you stay or leave, this conversation will help you stop personalizing the betrayal, understand your own patterns more compassionately, and move toward clarity, safety, and self-trust. Top 3 Takeaways Infidelity is often connected to unresolved trauma, attachment wounds, and protective survival patterns that began long before the relationship. EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) can help both partners process betrayal trauma, regulate the nervous system, and heal emotional wounds safely. Healing after infidelity isn't about rushing back into trust — it's about rebuilding emotional safety, understanding protective patterns, and creating real change over time. Favorite Quotes “You don't just cheat. It doesn't happen in a vacuum.” “Life is generous. It helps us wake up to the parts of ourselves we didn't know how to love before.” “Healing is not about forcing trust. It's about becoming safe again.” What You'll Learn: Why people cheat • Betrayal trauma and nervous system healing • How EMDR works after infidelity • What Internal Family Systems (IFS) actually means • Why hypervigilance after betrayal is normal • Childhood trauma and adult relationships • Why betrayed partners stay • Rebuilding trust safely • Emotional safety after infidelity • Processing trauma without retraumatizing yourself • The difference between understanding behavior and excusing it • Why healing takes time — even in healthy reconciliation About Todd Todd Creager is an experienced relationship therapist and sex expert specializing in couples counseling, marriage and intimacy.  From healing from trauma through EMDR therapy, to overcoming infidelity Todd has helped countless couples overcome the issues that they face – increasing their connection and communication.  Todd provides a variety of services and methods – from routine relationship therapy sessions to couples retreats and counseling relating to sex addiction and toxic relationships.  It's important to find working solutions for each individual couple.

Why Being the “Good Girl” Keeps You Stuck After Betrayal (The Hidden Cost No One Talks About) If you've been trying to handle betrayal “the right way”—staying calm, being understanding, holding everything together—this episode will change how you see your healing. Because the truth is, the women who stay stuck the longest after infidelity aren't the ones who fall apart… They're the ones who stay kind, capable, and in control. In this powerful episode, Lora Cheadle breaks down the hidden cost of being the “good girl” after betrayal—and how empathy, emotional intelligence, and over-functioning can quietly lead to self-abandonment. You'll learn how fawning shows up as a nervous system response, why the “assumption trap” keeps you focused on fixing your partner or your marriage, and how to reclaim your clarity, voice, and power—without losing your softness. Top 3 Takeaways Being “good” can keep you stuck Your kindness, patience, and ability to hold everything together are strengths—but when they override your truth, they lead to confusion, indecision, and self-abandonment. Fawning is not love—it's a survival response Smoothing things over, managing emotions, and avoiding conflict may feel like care, but they're often rooted in conditioning and nervous system patterns that keep you disconnected from yourself. You're not the problem—but you are the point of power You didn't cause the betrayal. But your clarity, boundaries, and self-trust determine what happens next. Pull Quotes “Fawning looks like kindness… but it's actually self-abandonment.” Who This Episode Is For This episode is for you if: You've been trying to “handle this well” instead of expressing how you really feel You tend to over-function, over-give, or take responsibility for others' emotions You feel stuck in indecision after betrayal You're not sure whether to stay or leave—but you know something has to change LOVE THE SHOW?

Jason and Lauren Vallotton sit down with their friend McKenzie Gibson, a labor and delivery nurse, to talk about something that doesn't get discussed nearly enough: how to prepare not just for marriage, but for a full and meaningful life. In a culture that often treats singleness like a waiting room, McKenzie shares how she's built a life marked by deep friendship, intentionality, hospitality, and purpose through her 20s and 30s.The conversation dives into the realities of burnout, nervous system overload, and the emotional toll of high-intensity work. McKenzie opens up about recognizing her limits, stepping into a sabbatical season, and why rest can sometimes be one of the wisest choices we make rather than a sign of failure.

Why Betrayal Makes it Feel Like Your Whole Life Was a Lie What if the most painful part of betrayal isn't what happened—but what it reveals? In this powerful episode, Lora Cheadle explores why betrayal feels like your whole life was a lie—not because every moment was fake, but because the map you were using to navigate life no longer works. From childhood beliefs about love, goodness, and fairness to the harsh awakening that life isn't always transactional, this conversation unpacks the deeper grief beneath betrayal: the collapse of your worldview, your identity, and your sense of safety. Through personal stories, grounded insight, and powerful metaphors—from The Matrix to navigating a foreign country without a map—Lora helps you understand why you feel so disoriented… and how to begin building a new reality rooted in truth, self-trust, and clarity. If you've ever thought: “I don't know who I am anymore” “Nothing feels real” “How could I not have seen this?” “What do I do now?” This episode will help you make sense of what you're feeling—and show you the path forward. Top 3 Takeaways Betrayal doesn't just break your heart—it breaks your worldview. The deepest pain isn't just what happened. It's realizing the rules you believed in—love, loyalty, fairness—don't guarantee the outcomes you expected. You're not crazy—you're disoriented. After betrayal, your mind is trying to make sense of a reality that no longer matches your internal map. That confusion, panic, and second-guessing are normal responses to a shattered belief system. Healing isn't about going back—it's about building a new map. The goal isn't to restore your old life or beliefs. It's to create a new foundation based on truth, self-trust, and the ability to navigate life as it actually is. Pull Quotes “Betrayal is not just the loss of a relationship.

Hi my loves

Why Betrayal Lives in the Body: The Missing Piece of Healing After Infidelity What if the hardest part of betrayal isn't just what happened—but what your body is still carrying because of it? In this powerful conversation, Lora sits down with somatic educator and healer Aimee Takaya to explore the connection between betrayal, trauma, tension, and the body. Together, they unpack why betrayal lives in the nervous system, why talking about it is not always enough, and how unresolved pain can keep showing up as anxiety, hypervigilance, rage, tightness, exhaustion, and even chronic pain. Aimee shares her own story of betrayal in marriage, what healing actually looked like for her and her husband, and why somatic work can be the missing piece when you feel stuck in your healing. If you have ever wondered why you still feel activated even when you “know better,” this conversation will help you understand what your body is trying to tell you—and how to finally begin letting it go. Top 3 Takeaways Betrayal is not just emotional—it becomes physical. Your body stores tension, fear, hypervigilance, and pain long after the event itself is over. Healing is not about “getting over it” as quickly as possible. It is a process of creating enough safety in your body to release what has been held for years—or even generations. Somatic work can help you listen with “new ears,” soften your nervous system, strengthen your boundaries, and stop reacting from old patterns of fear and pain. Pull Quotes “Betrayal is not just something that happens to your heart. It happens to your body, your nervous system, your sense of safety, and your ability to trust yourself.” About Aimee Takaya Aimee Takaya is a Certified Hanna Somatic Educator, Somatic Yoga Teacher, Podcaster and Transformation Facilitator. She has been professionally teaching movement and working with a wide range of bodies and challenges for over 14 years.  She loves to help you connect your body and ALL its messages in new and empowering ways. Aimee knows from personal experience the power of compassionate somatic practice to heal from chronic pain and adverse life experiences. She works with clients in person, in the Western New York area, as well as internationally through zoom. She also creates somatic, bodywork-based retreats where you can deepen your self-trust & connection. to truly let go of what binds you.

Infidelity, Trauma & the Nervous System: Why Healing Is So Complex (and What Actually Works) Infidelity is rarely simple—and healing from it isn't either. In this grounded, deeply human conversation, Lora sits down with trauma therapist Dr. Monique Thompson to explore the real complexity behind betrayal, relationships, and recovery. This is not a conversation about quick fixes, blame, or black-and-white answers. It's about understanding what's actually happening beneath the surface—neurologically, emotionally, and relationally. Together, they unpack how trauma lives in the body, why you can look “fine” while your nervous system is in distress, and how early experiences—even preverbal ones—shape the way we connect, react, and make decisions in relationships. They also explore the truth about infidelity: it's not always clear-cut, it's not always intentional in the way we think, and it's never just about the moment it happened. Betrayal often uncovers deeper layers—identity, attachment, self-worth, and long-standing patterns that were already in motion. This episode is a powerful reminder that healing requires slowing down, tending to yourself, and getting the right support. Whether you stay, leave, or don't yet know what you want, there is no one “right” path—only your path. If you've been trying to make sense of what happened, or wondering why this feels so overwhelming, this conversation will help you understand why—and what actually helps. Top 3 Takeaways Infidelity is complex and rarely black-and-white. It often reflects deeper patterns, trauma, and unmet needs that existed long before the relationship. Trauma is not just emotional—it is biological. You can appear functional on the outside while your nervous system is in a state of stress or survival. Healing requires support, not isolation. Whether through therapy, coaching, or a team approach, having guidance helps you regulate, process, and make aligned decisions. Pull Quotes “You can look fine on the outside—and still have a nervous system that thinks it's in a war zone.” About Monique Dr. Monique Thompson, DHA, LPC, LPC-S, is an EMDR-trained trauma and infidelity recovery therapist based in Dallas with over 24 years of experience in private practice. She specializes in helping individuals and couples heal from betrayal, restore trust, and rebuild their lives with clarity and confidence by integrating faith, neuroscience, and psychology. Dr. Thompson is the bestselling author of Infidelity Recovery Workbook for Couples: Tools and Exercises to Rebuild Your Relationship, a practical and compassionate guide for couples navigating the aftermath of infidelity. In addition to her clinical work, she has served for over 21 years as a consultant with SMU's Perkins School of Theology and is an Associate Faculty member at the University of Phoenix, where she has been nominated Faculty of the Year for four consecutive years (2020–2023). A dedicated mentor and leader in her field, Dr. Thompson has supervised and supported the licensure of 13 LPC interns over the past 15 years. She is also a respected voice in her local community in Little Elm, Texas, where she is known not only as a clinician and author, but as a committed mother and engaged community member.

In this episode of The Kirk Miller Podcast, Kirk sits down with performance coach and author Will Polston to break down why so many high performers still feel stuck — despite achieving success. This conversation goes deeper than goals, habits, or productivity. It's about direction, identity, and building a life that actually means something. Will shares the concept of North Star Thinking — a framework designed to align your actions, decisions, and long-term vision around something bigger than short-term wins. In this episode, Kirk and Will discuss: Why chasing money and surface-level goals often leads to frustration The concept of North Star Thinking and how it changes everything How to identify a mission that drives long-term fulfilment The "glass ceiling" most high performers eventually hit Why success without direction leads to burnout and confusion How to audit your life and realign with what actually matters The role of values in decision-making and emotional consistency Why structure beats time management The importance of environment, mentorship, and community The Bigger Takeaway Most people aren't lacking effort. They're lacking alignment. You can hit goals and still feel lost You can build success and still feel unfulfilled You can work hard and still be heading in the wrong direction The solution isn't doing more. It's getting clear on why you're doing it in the first place.

Send Us A Question You Want ON AIR!In this episode I'm talking about what it really takes to move toward the life you desire, especially when fear, comfort, uncertainty, or self-doubt try to keep you where you are.This conversation is about the quiet kind of courage but the kind that helps you be honest about what's no longer aligned, release what no longer fits, and start making intentional choices that move you toward a life that feels more whole, purposeful, and true to who you're becoming.In this episode, I share:Why courage often starts with honestyHow to recognize when you've outgrown a season of lifeThe small decisions that build confidence and momentumWhy cultivating a life you love requires letting goHow to stop waiting for permission to become who you're meant to beWhat it looks like to create a life that aligns with your values and visionIf you've been feeling the nudge to make a shift, start something new, or choose a life that feels more aligned, this episode is your reminder that courage is cultivated one decision at a time.Save 15% off your Skin Deep Connect Cards using link below https://shop.theskindeep.com/SHECULTIVATESORLWould love to hear from you!

Money is a hard topic for any couple, but in a blended family, it often carries even more weight. It's rarely just about numbers. It's about history, protection, prior commitments, loyalty, fear, values, and the future you're trying to build together.In this episode, we sit down with Brian K. Peterson to unpack why money conversations feel so loaded in stepfamilies, and how couples can approach them with more wisdom and unity. Instead of treating money like a scoreboard, Brian invites couples to ask a better question: What are we trying to build together? That shift can move you from conflict and anxiety toward collaboration and peace.You'll also hear why a unified financial vision matters, especially with child support, co-parenting stress, legal battles, and shifting seasons that can make stability feel fragile. Join us as we explore why unity isn't sameness, it's honoring each person's story while intentionally building a shared future. Brian is a husband, dad, and stepdad, and the founder of Blended Family Financial. He created the Planning Built for Life® process to help stepfamily couples move from financial tension to shared clarity and direction. He and his wife, Cara, are passionate about building strong blended families, and he's the upcoming author of Blended Family Finances: How to Talk About Money, Plan for the Future, and Build a Life You Love.If money has become a source of stress, silence, or disconnection in your relationship, this episode will help you slow down, get honest, and start moving toward a more intentional and united path.You'll Discover:Why money conversations feel more complicated in blended familiesHow fear, protection, guilt, and past experiences quietly shape financial decisionsWhat a unified financial vision is, and how it helps couples move from conflict to collaborationHow to think about legacy as something you live now, not just something you leave laterResources from this Episode:Get your FREE copy of Blended Family Finances (limited offer) by Brian K.
