What if the version of you that’s been “playing it safe” was never hiding at all—she was simply protecting the parts of you that didn’t yet feel safe to be seen?

In this deeply personal solo episode, host Christina Sommers opens up about her recent realization that she’s been hiding in plain sight—softening her message, dimming her truth, and realizing that visibility without safety still isn’t freedom.

Christina shares the story of The Woman at the Top of the Stairs from her chapter in Ignite Your Courage, a moment that marked the beginning of her own rebirth from surviving to thriving. She reflects on what happens when we finally stop diluting who we are, remember the woman who chose courage, and allow our nervous systems to experience real safety in being seen.

✨ In this episode, you’ll hear:

• Why we dilute our truth after toxic or emotionally abusive relationships
• How nervous-system safety and visibility are connected
• The story behind The Woman at the Top of the Stairs and what she represents
• Practical ways to begin showing up as your full self—without abandoning your sense of safety
• What’s coming next in the Loving Your Life Again refresh

💗 Listen if you’re ready to:

• Reclaim your voice and authenticity
• Heal from the inside out through somatic and emotional awareness
• Remember the woman you’ve always been and finally let her be seen

If this episode resonates, share it on Instagram and tag @breath_of_renewal with one word that describes where you are on your journey—surviving, healing, or thriving.

“Hiding in plain sight is still hiding—it’s your nervous system’s quiet way of saying, ‘I want to be seen, but I don’t yet feel safe being seen.’”

“The Woman at the Top of the Stairs never left—she just waited for me to remember.”

In this week’s group conversation, Christina and her guests explore what it truly means to fall into alignment — not as a destination of perfection, but as a deep remembering of who you are beneath the noise. As the seasons shift and the leaves begin to fall, we’re invited to shed what no longer serves and create space for renewal, clarity, and connection.

You’ll hear honest reflections on the messy middle — navigating change, releasing control, and learning to trust your own rhythm again. Whether you’re in a season of letting go or stepping into something new, this episode will help you ground back into your body and align with what’s true for you.

In this episode, we explore:

• 🍂 What alignment really means beyond surface-level spirituality
• 💫 The difference between forcing versus flowing
• 🧘‍♀️ Somatic tools to support release and realignment
• 🌬️ How breathwork helps regulate your nervous system through transition
• 🌙 The power of surrender and self-trust in new seasons

Listen if you’re ready to:

• Realign with your purpose and values
• Let go of old stories or patterns that feel heavy
• Feel grounded and supported as you enter a new chapter

In this episode of Loving Your Life Again, Christina Sommers shares a raw, unfiltered message that’s been rising in her since her recent retreat and breathwork circle: we are no longer here to play small.

Christina opens up about her personal journey — walking away from an abusive relationship, surviving a head-on collision, and unraveling the stories that once silenced her voice and power. She reflects on what it means to find true safety in your body, and why safety is the foundation for reclaiming your voice, your choice, and your power.

This episode is part story, part declaration, and part embodied practice. Christina guides you through a short somatic exercise and breathwork practice to help you feel safe in your own body, regulate your nervous system, and remember your inner strength.

If you’ve ever felt like you’ve been shrinking, hiding, or holding back, this conversation is your reminder that you are meant for more. You have permission to choose differently — to break free from the chains of your past and step boldly into freedom, sovereignty, and joy.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why safety in your body is the key to lasting transformation
• How retreat and community experiences can unlock hidden parts of your story
• The connection between voice, choice, and power in healing
• A simple somatic + breathwork practice you can use anytime to regulate and ground

Resources & Next Steps:

Most of us were never taught how to feel.

We were told things like:
“Stop crying or I’ll give you something to cry about.”
“You’re fine.”
“Don’t be so sensitive.”

So we learned to stuff down our emotions, loop through the stories in our minds, and disconnect from our bodies. The result? Explosions, shutdowns, or even dis-ease from years of suppressing what was never meant to be held inside.

But here’s the truth: in order to feel better, we have to become better feelers.

In this short and powerful episode, I share:

• Why it often doesn’t feel safe to express emotions
• The difference between feeling and bypassing (no fake positivity here)
• Simple somatic tools — breath, sound, and movement — to help emotions flow
• How to find your “edge” so you stay safe without overwhelming your system
• Why feeling isn’t weakness, but strength — the pathway back home to yourself

✨ You don’t have to fix the feeling. You just have to feel it.

This week, I’m going raw and unfiltered.

I’ve been deep in the work of remembering — the kind that has nothing to do with your mind and everything to do with your body.

Because here’s the truth: you can’t think your way home. You have to feel your way there.

In this episode, I’m breaking down:

• Why we forget who we are (and how life, trauma, and conditioning pull us away)
• What “remembering” actually feels like in the body
• How breathwork helps you bypass the mind and meet the truth waiting inside you
• Why bypassing isn’t healing — and what to do instead

This isn’t a fluffy “just breathe” conversation. It’s a call to reclaim the parts of you that have been silenced, shut down, or shoved into the background.

And if you’re ready to take this from conversation to embodiment, my Breath of Renewal Monthly Circle is happening this Sunday, August 17th @ 3:00 PM ET.

This is your invitation to gather with women from all walks of life, breathe as one, release what’s been heavy, and remember who you are.
