Loving Your Life Again | Toxic Relationship Recovery & Nervous System Healing For Women Ready to Heal
Loving Your Life Again is a warm, honest, and deeply grounded podcast for women who are still inside a toxic, emotionally abusive, or addiction-affected relationship — or who have just found their way out — and are finally ready to stop surviving and start healing for real. Hosted by Christina Sommers, trauma-informed breathwork facilitator and somatic coach, this show offers clarity, nervous system tools, and the kind of real talk that actually meets you where you are — so you can find your way back to yourself, your faith, and the life you were always meant to love.
If you're exhausted from carrying everything and everyone, if you feel stuck but can't quite name why, or if you've tried the five-step resets and nothing has actually stuck — this podcast was made for you. Whether you're walking on eggshells around his moods, quietly enabling an addiction you never signed up for, or holding a marriage together while slowly disappearing inside it — you are not alone, and you are not crazy. With story-first teaching, embodied healing tools, and conversations rooted in faith, each episode is designed to help you feel less alone, more grounded in your own body, and one breath closer to real peace.
Christina has walked her own journey through toxic relationship, addiction, and survival mode — all the way to wholeness — and she brings that lived experience into every single episode, alongside twenty years of grounded, practical wisdom.
What you'll hear:
- Real conversations about toxic relationships, narcissistic abuse, emotional abuse, and loving an addicted spouse
- Nervous system healing, breathwork, and somatic tools you can actually use
- Faith-rooted healing for the woman who's been wrestling with God in the middle of her pain
If you're asking any of these questions, you're in the right place:
- Is this even abuse if he doesn't hit me?
- Is it okay to leave if my husband is an addict — what does God say about that?
- Why do I feel so crazy — and why can't I trust myself anymore?
- Will I ever feel like myself again?
This is the podcast for when you're done performing peace and ready to find the real thing. Tune in — and take the next breath back to loving your life. 🤍

Why Looking at Your Numbers Feels So Overwhelming (And How to Make It Feel Safe Again)

If you’ve ever opened your banking app, your bookkeeping software, or even thought about your numbers and felt your whole body tighten — this episode is for you.
In this episode, I’m introducing a new lane here on the podcast:
Tuesdays will continue to be about healing, relationships, and coming home to yourself.
Thursdays, we’re opening up a practical, grounded conversation about business and money — through a nervous-system lens.
This is not about:
- Forcing discipline
- Ignoring your emotions
- Or pretending money stress is “just mindset”
This is about learning how to work with your business and your body at the same time.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Why so many smart, capable business owners avoid their numbers
- How your nervous system associates money with danger, shame, or threat
- The difference between mindset work and somatic capacity
- Why “just be more organized” doesn’t work when your body is in stress
- How to start building safety with your business — one small step at a time
- And why financial clarity is not just a strategy issue, but a regulation issue
This episode is for you if:
- You avoid your books even though you want to be responsible
- You feel overwhelmed by money language and systems
- You want more clarity and stability in your business, but keep freezing
- Or you know you’re meant to build something sustainable — without burning yourself out or living in stress
This is the beginning of our practical money + nervous system conversations.
Next week, we’ll start breaking down some of the basics in simple, human language — like why revenue is not the same as cash, and why that matters more than you think.
