The Reclaiming HER Resilience Podcast is a space for women healing from coercive control, relational, narcissistic, and spiritual harm, where your story is taken seriously, your grief is given room, and hope is not a platitude but an orientation. Hosted by trauma-informed story work and somatic attachment coach Robrenna Parker, each episode of this podcast weaves together her own healing journey, honest conversations with guests, and practical guidance for women ready to name what happened, grieve what was lost, and reclaim what was always theirs. This journey isn't about rebuilding from scratch; it's about discovering or rediscovering yourself, one story at a time.

Oops, I Did It Again! How I Found Myself in One High-Control Environment After Another S3 Ep 39
After a church, ministry, and marriage that worked in similar ways, I found myself in another high-control environment, one that looked like a sisterhood but wasn’t. In this episode, I named the architecture and mechanics of coercive control within these systems so you can recognize them too

Replay Letter To The Church about Domestic Violence
For Domestic Violence Awareness Month, I'm bringing back an episode that I believe belongs to an ongoing conversation rather than a single moment. In light of what we've seen in the headlines, including Mica Miller's story, and in the experiences of many women in our own communities, this letter to the church feels as necessary now as it did when I first wrote it.

Reclaiming HER: The Controlled Burn - Season 2 Finale
Reclaiming HER: The Controlled Burn - Season 2 Finale
Episode Summary:
In this powerful season finale, host Robrenna shares a deeply personal journey of transformation using the metaphor of a controlled burn. Just as prairie land managers intentionally burn dead thatch to make way for new growth, Robrenna describes her own decision to step away from a professional environment that no longer nourished her, clearing space for something more authentic and life-giving.
Key Topics Covered:
• The metaphor of controlled burns in the Great Plains (Nebraska sand hills and Kansas Flint Hills)
• Recognizing when "dead fuel" has piled up in your professional or personal life
• The difference between a controlled burn (on your terms) versus a wildfire (crisis)
• Introducing RHR Media Co. - the publishing arm of Reclaiming Her Resilience
• The symbolism of the fiddlehead fern logo and what it represents
• The spiritual foundation of "Reclaiming Her Resilience" (Joel 2:25-26)
• Understanding resilience as getting back up, even if slowly
About the Host:
Robrenna Parker is a narrative focus, trauma care certified story coach, somatic attachment coach, and founder of Reclaiming Her Resilience, LLC and RHR Media Co.
