   Taboo Talk Season 2 Episode 24 What If Your Next Chapter Is Your Best One Yet? Rebuilding Life with Robyn Jordan

   What happens when the life you thought you'd have is no longer the life in front of you? Sarah sits down with her friend Robyn Jordan for a deeply personal conversation about surviving breast cancer, the end of a 32-year marriage, rediscovering identity after years of putting others first, and finding the courage to start again. Robyn's message is beautifully simple: your past does not define you, and the next chapter of your life may just become your best one yet.

   Taboo Talk Season 2 Episode 23 After Survival: Fear, Forgiveness & Learning to Live Again with Peter McLaughlin

   We talk a lot about surviving—the illness, accident, crisis or experience that threatened to break us. But what happens afterwards, when the danger has passed yet some part of us still hasn't received the message that we're safe? Sarah sits down with Peter McLaughlin, leukemia survivor, former volunteer firefighter and EMT, hypnotherapist and spiritual root-cause coach, to explore mortality, fear, subconscious patterns, forgiveness and our capacity to change. It's a conversation about moving beyond survival and asking: What if the experience that knocked you down could also change the direction of your life?

   Taboo Talk Season Episode 22 When Safety Is Shattered: Trauma, Trust & Finding Yourself Again with Dr. Kalyani Gopal

   What happens when the people, relationships or systems that were supposed to keep us safe become part of the trauma—and how do we learn to trust again? Sarah sits down with clinical psychologist and human rights advocate Dr. Kalyani Gopal to explore trauma, trafficking, foster care, displacement, attachment and recovery. Drawing on more than 35 years of experience, Dr. G shares why healing begins with safety, self-regulation and rediscovering who you are beyond what happened to you.
