  Dealing With Trauma in Real Time (and an Update On My Health)

  Aug 17, 202629 min

  Send us Fan Mail The last two months have been a real struggle for me... if you hadn't noticed. LOL! But, since this is "The Other Side of the Struggle" I think this is a good episode to declare that I truly believe there is always another side to what we go through. And, maybe what we go through can actually be a blessing, but it's just hard to see it right now. In this episode, I discuss my health struggles that have been keeping me from posting consistently... and how they aren't going to leave me hopeless. I discuss how and why gratitude for the things we go through is actually what makes it feel manageable... even when trauma feels big! Also, please be patient with me as I am working towards healing and health again as the episodes won't be every week.

  The Boundary that Stops Self Abandonment

  Jul 6, 202625 min

  Send us Fan Mail What if the biggest boundary you need isn't with someone else? What if it's with yourself? In this episode, I share the foundational boundary that has transformed my life, healing, relationships, and the lives of countless women I work with every day: I will be my own best friend. Many women struggling with betrayal, people-pleasing, self-doubt, or unhealthy relationships don't realize they're abandoning themselves. They ignore their intuition, silence their needs, explain away hurtful behavior, and prioritize everyone else's comfort over their own well-being. Not because they're weak. Because somewhere along the way, they learned that self-abandonment felt safer than disappointing someone else. In this episode, you'll learn: ✨ What self-abandonment actually looks like in everyday life ✨ Why so many women learned this survival strategy ✨ The hidden cost of constantly putting yourself last ✨ How boundaries help you stay true to who God created you to be ✨ Why "being your own best friend" changes everything ✨ How self-trust is built one decision at a time I also share a powerful perspective on how Jesus modeled healthy boundaries, unwavering identity, and self-respect—even when others wanted Him to abandon His mission. If you've ever found yourself asking: Why do I keep allowing this? Why didn't I speak up? Why do I keep putting everyone else first? Why don't I trust myself anymore? This episode will help you begin answering those questions with compassion, clarity, and truth. Because healing doesn't begin when everyone around you changes. It begins when you decide you will no longer abandon yourself. ❤️ Ready to become your own best friend and create the life God intended for you? Book your coaching call using the link below. Until then, remember: You matter. Your voice matters. Your needs matter. And you are worthy of the same love, compassion, and loyalty you so freely give to everyone else.

  Episode #145

  Healing Is Not Becoming Fearless. It's A Choice to Become Yourself.

  Jun 29, 202621 min

  Send us Fan Mail What if healing isn't about becoming fearless? What if it's about becoming you again? So many women believe that healing means reaching a point where they never feel afraid, never doubt themselves, never get triggered, and never struggle. But what if that's not the goal at all? In this episode, Erin explores a powerful truth: healing isn't the absence of fear—it's the return to who God created you to be. If you've spent years walking on eggshells, questioning yourself, putting everyone else's needs before your own, or trying to become someone different in order to feel safe, this conversation is for you. In this episode, you'll learn: ✨ Why confidence isn't the absence of fear ✨ How trauma can disconnect us from ourselves ✨ The difference between growth discomfort and actual danger ✨ Why boundaries help you reconnect with your identity ✨ How to trust yourself even when fear is present ✨ What it really means to come home to yourself You don't have to become stronger, tougher, or more fearless to heal. You simply have to remember who you are. Because the version of you you're searching for isn't somewhere out in the future. She's already there. And healing is the journey back to her. ❤️ Join our free community: The Other Side of the Struggle Healing from Betrayal Trauma 📲 Follow Erin on Instagram for encouragement, healing, boundaries, faith, and practical tools to help you create a life you love. #HealingTrauma #BetrayalTraumaRecovery #ChristianWomen #FaithAndHealing #SelfTrust #Boundaries #DivineIdentity #EmotionalHealing #TheOtherSideOfTheStruggle Support the show If you would like to book a free coaching call click on this link to schedule a time: https://calendly.com/erin-anderson-coaching/creating-your-unbreakable-boundaries Get your free "Creating and Clarifying Boundaries" PDF here! https://www.erinandersonthetraumacoach.com/ClarifyandCreateBoundaries Don't forget!

  Episode #144

  Reality Is What Happened. Truth Is Who God Says You Are

  Jun 22, 202631 min

  Send us Fan Mail What if one of the biggest obstacles to healing isn't what happened to you... but what you started believing about yourself because it happened? In this deeply personal episode, Erin explores the powerful difference between reality and truth. Reality is what happened. Reality is betrayal, heartbreak, rejection, abandonment, disappointment, and pain. But truth? Truth is who God says you are. If you've ever found yourself questioning your worth, your value, your lovability, or your future because of someone else's choices, this episode is for you. Together, we'll explore: ✨ Why trauma often creates stories that feel true but aren't ✨ How painful experiences can quietly shape our identity ✨ The difference between what happened to you and who you are ✨ Why God's truth is stronger than your circumstances ✨ How boundaries help protect your identity during healing ✨ The life-changing question: "Is this reality, or is this truth?" This episode is a reminder that another person's behavior does not have the authority to define your worth. God already did that. No matter what you've walked through, you are still loved. You are still chosen. You are still valuable. And you are still capable of creating a beautiful life. Because what happened to you is part of your story... But it is not your identity. ❤️ Join our free community: The Other Side of the Struggle Healing from Betrayal Trauma 📲 Connect with Erin on Instagram for daily encouragement, healing, boundaries, faith, and creating a life you love. #HealingTrauma #BetrayalTraumaRecovery #ChristianWomen #FaithAndHealing #Boundaries #DivineIdentity #SelfWorth #TrustGod #TheOtherSideOfTheStruggle Support the show If you would like to book a free coaching call click on this link to schedule a time: https://calendly.com/erin-anderson-coaching/creating-your-unbreakable-boundaries Get your free "Creating and Clarifying Boundaries" PDF here! https://www.erinandersonthetraumacoach.com/ClarifyandCreateBoundaries Don't forget!

  Jun 8, 202650 min

  Send us Fan Mail Have you ever smiled through a conversation while secretly feeling like you were falling apart inside? In this episode of The Other Side of the Struggle , we’re talking about the silent exhaustion so many women carry while still showing up for everyone around them. The meals still get made. The bills still get paid. The kids are still cared for. The smile is still there. But underneath it all… there’s a woman quietly wondering how much longer she can hold everything together. This episode is for the woman who feels emotionally overwhelmed, unseen, unsupported, and tired of carrying the weight of everyone else’s needs while ignoring her own. We’re diving into: Why so many women learn to hide their pain The emotional weight of being “the strong one” How self-abandonment disconnects us from ourselves Why emotions are often the voice of self-compassion, not weakness The difference between being loving and disappearing inside relationships Faith, boundaries, honesty, and healing Gentle first steps toward becoming emotionally supported too Sweet friend, you were never meant to carry the entire world by yourself. There is another side to this struggle. And healing often begins the moment we stop pretending we’re okay when we’re not.
