Episode 6 - Rebekah LaRobardiere with Ericka Jones

In this powerful, deeply honest conversation, Rebekah sits down with longtime friend Ericka to unpack what it really means to trust your body, speak your truth, and set boundaries without guilt. Together, they explore the emotional aftermath of friendship conflict, people-pleasing, and the fear of being “too much”—especially for women raised to minimize themselves for the comfort of others.

From navigating awkward public encounters to sending the text that finally closed a chapter, this episode is full of real-world stories, somatic wisdom, and the kind of truth-telling that leads to lasting freedom. You’ll hear what it looks like to break old patterns, regulate your nervous system, and walk away from mismatched relationships with clarity and compassion.
