  • Trauma Twins | E14 Reframing Our Inner Dialogue
    2025/04/30

    This week, the Twins discuss the power of our words and how our inner dialog shapes our reality... whether we realize it or not. The two flush out the steps we take in-order to observe our thoughts, make space for them without judgement, and ultimately neutralize them by reframing how we speak to ourselves.

    The discussion circles around ideas from Abraham Hicks, Erkert Tolle, Ru Paul and even Cher to illustrate the necessity of understanding that every thought we have is a form of energy that directly influences the reality we create. And it all begins with us and our inner world.

  • Trauma Twins | E8 Boundaries and Consequences
    2025/03/28

    Sarah and Dave continue the conversation about what healthy boundaries look like and how upholding them can make you feel even worse than someone crossing them in the first place.
