21. Healing Sexual Trauma in a Safe Marriage

In this episode, I’m sharing a recent shift in my healing from sexual abuse and how it’s been showing up in my marriage.

After years of progress, intimacy started feeling difficult again. Not because my partner isn’t safe, but because I was overriding self-trust in the name of progress.

We talk about:

1. Why intimacy can still feel triggering in a healthy relationship
2. How to recognize the difference between growth and overwhelm
3. The role of self-trust in healing sexual trauma
4. What it looks like to stop overriding yourself in the name of progress

If you’re doing the work but still feel stuck when it comes to intimacy, this episode will help you understand why and what needs to shift.
