Podcasts about safe spaces

What do you do when relationships feels risky after you've been hurt, betrayed, or let down, yet you still crave real connection? This week, Dr. Alison is joined by speaker, and author Toni Collier, for a powerful and honest conversation about healing through community and learning how to trust again after deep pain.  Toni shares her story of betrayal and loss, and how she discovered the power of safe people - the kind who can hold your heart without judgment and help you rebuild when life falls apart. Together, they unpack what real friendship looks like and why isolation, while it feels safe, can slowly destroy us. You'll walk away with language for repair, courage to take off your “strong friend” cape, and practical wisdom for finding (and becoming) the kind of people who can walk with you through both heartbreak and healing. This episode explores: Why healing requires safe people, not just safe spaces How to build a community that can hold your story The difference between isolation and refuge The courage it takes to say, “I need help” The three steps to finding and keeping trustworthy friends You can find Toni's powerful book here:

Send us a textHave you ever said yes just to avoid an argument? You take it on, you promise you'll change, you nod along. Even though inside you're thinking, “I can't keep doing this.” That's not weakness. That's an agreement that needs a closer look.Last week we shared part one of this two-part series from The Better Love Club on how real connection is created. In part two, we're looking at what blocks it: unhealthy agreements. We're sharing these replays while Tom and I are in Italy checking out the venue for our 2026 couples retreat.A quick note for our Better Love Club community: all student voices have been removed to protect privacy.This is Love Shack Live, the podcast for people at a relationship crossroads. If daily fights are wearing you down, if the gap keeps growing, and you still want a bond that feels real and lasting, you're in the right place.Think about it. Maybe you promised to stop bringing up money. Or to be the one who always texts first. Or to say yes to intimacy when you don't feel close. On the outside, it looks fine. Inside, it feels heavy and exhausting. Today I'll show you how to tell when an agreement isn't serving you and how to shift it without turning it into a blowup.Today's question: What happens when you stop saying a tired yes and start speaking one true sentence instead?We'll explore:The difference between talking and true connection (and why “performing” closeness backfires)How to spot the hidden cost of people-pleasing: resentment, shutdown, and that “I'm disappearing” feelingWhy flexibility in agreements creates safety instead of chaosA simple reveal/witness framework to help you change a deal without lighting a matchLanguage you can borrow to own your part, name what's changed, and propose something betterTry this while you listen: Notice where your body says “no” while your mouth says “okay.” That's your cue to test a more true sentence.By the end, you'll have one sentence to replace an exhausted yes. What shifts when you say it out loud?Ready to Learn What to Say (and Not Say) During Space?If your partner has asked for space, communication can feel like walking a tightrope. What you say (or don't say) can make the difference between rebuilding connection or widening the gap.You have two ways to join me for my “What to Say (and Not Say) During Space” masterclass:

This week, Vee and Elle sit down with journalist and sexual freedom philosopher Nicolle Double L to explore the intersection of BDSM, psychedelics, and sexuality as tools for self-discovery and healing.

Episode #410: “We've got to find a way from surviving to thriving again.” With this vision, Jue Jue, a social worker and founder of Jue Jue's Safe Space, seeks to transform Myanmar's mental health landscape. Raised in a politically engaged family—her father an 88 Generation activist and her mother a frontline social worker—Jue Jue's early exposure to trauma and resilience shaped her lifelong dedication to social justice.Her understanding of inequality deepened upon moving to the U.S., where her accent and ethnicity led to discrimination, mirroring the systemic exclusion ethnic minorities face in Myanmar. This caused her to reflecting on her own Bamar privilege, which exposed her past biases, especially toward groups like the Rohingyas and Indian-Burmese. She committed herself to building inclusive, respectful spaces.Jue Jue's Safe Space, launched in 2019, evolved from a Facebook page into a critical mental health platform for Burmese communities. Inspired by personal struggles and intergenerational trauma, the initiative counters stigma by offering culturally grounded, clinically sound services. Jue Jue emphasizes that mental health suffering often stems from systemic injustice, not individual weakness.She challenges her country's romanticized patriarchy and calls out its political misuse, while urging a return to Buddhist principles of compassion. Despite operating without steady funding, her initiative has supported many during Myanmar's cascading crises—pandemic, coup, earthquake—while promoting agency and emotional resilience.Though not yet ready to treat oppressors (those who are currently in the military perpetuating abuses), she hopes for a future where reconciliation is possible. “We're going to shine again,” she affirms, envisioning a Myanmar rebuilt through inner peace, inclusion, and empowered healing.

What happens when survivors of covert narcissistic abuse come together in one safe space? At our recent CNG retreat, fifteen women gathered with fear, doubt, hope, and courage.

In this podcast episode, Kurt Francom and Dan Duckworth discuss the importance of addressing community tragedies within Latter-day Saint congregations. They explore how leaders can create spaces for healing and connection during difficult times, emphasizing the role of vulnerability and unity in fostering a supportive church environment. Dan Duckworth speaks, teaches, and writes on leadership, power, and systemic change. His forthcoming book, The Leader in Chains (spring 2026), challenges conventional ideas and calls for a radical rethinking of leadership—and how it is developed. Links Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Overview Perception of Community Needs: Leaders should be attuned to the emotional climate of their congregations, recognizing when community tragedies impact members. This awareness can guide appropriate responses. Risk of Vulnerability: Addressing difficult topics in church settings can feel risky, but it is essential for fostering genuine connections and healing. Leaders should embrace this risk to create a supportive environment. Purpose of Church: The church serves not only as a place for learning doctrine but also as a community for healing and support. Engaging in open discussions about current events can strengthen faith and unity. Creating Safe Spaces: Leaders can facilitate discussions that allow members to express their feelings and experiences, promoting emotional processing and community bonding. Driving the Hope Train: Leaders should focus on instilling hope and directing conversations toward Christ's teachings, using scriptural stories to provide comfort and guidance during challenging times. Leadership Applications Fostering Open Dialogue: Leaders can initiate conversations about current events or tragedies, encouraging members to share their feelings and experiences. This can be done through structured discussions or informal check-ins. Building Trust and Safety: By consistently creating a culture of vulnerability and support, leaders can ensure that members feel safe to express their emotions and seek help when needed. Integrating Healing into Meetings: Leaders can incorporate discussions of community challenges into regular meetings, ensuring that spiritual teachings are connected to real-life experiences, thus reinforcing the church's role as a healing community.

We say we want transformation, but often we create environments that protect people from pain instead of preparing them for growth. In the process, we enable spiritual stagnation, emotional fragility, and shallow discipleship. This week on Win Today, Katie Davis Majors exposes the hidden dangers of well-meaning empathy, the false security of “safe spaces,” and the clichés that erode authentic faith. In this conversation, we'll also tackle how to live faithfully in the tension between what God has promised and what we see right now. If you've ever found yourself numbing pain instead of processing it, or if you've settled for comfort instead of maturity, this conversation will challenge you to grow, even when it costs you.

Send us a textThe digital world can be treacherous, especially when you're looking for a safe space to share your most vulnerable thoughts. Today's story about the Tea app breach will make you rethink every "anonymous" platform you've ever trusted.Tea promised women complete anonymity, a digital sanctuary where they could share dating horror stories, relationship struggles, and deeply personal confessions too raw for other platforms. Thousands believed this promise, uploading personal photos and sharing intimate details of their lives. Then security researchers made a chilling discovery: Tea's entire database sat completely unprotected on the internet. No password required. The numbers are staggering: 72,000 private images including selfies and IDs, plus 1.1 million direct messages containing confessions about abortion, sexual assault, infidelity, and more, all exposed. But the story takes an even darker turn when someone created "T-Spill," weaponizing this stolen data by turning private photos into ranking games and mapping personal information to real locations. This wasn't just a technical failure; it was a profound betrayal that turned a supposed sanctuary into what can only be described as a predator's playground.As the FBI investigates and lawsuits mount, we're left with uncomfortable questions about digital trust. How do we balance our need for connection with the reality that our most vulnerable moments are only as protected as the people building these platforms? The next time an app promises total privacy, remember Tea and maybe wait to see how they handle their first crisis before sharing your deepest secrets.
