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. 🤍

The First Financial Boundary Every Business Owner Needs (and How to Set It)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If even thinking about looking at your numbers makes your chest tighten, you’re not bad at money — your nervous system doesn’t feel safe yet.
In this practical, compassionate episode of Loving Your Life Again, Christina walks you through how to get your numbers ready for tax season, why separating personal and business finances is the first and most important financial boundary, and how to create a simple system you can actually maintain.
With over 20 years of experience in accounting and finance — and a trauma-informed, somatic approach to nervous system regulation — Christina bridges the gap between practical money management and emotional safety.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why avoiding your numbers is usually a nervous system issue, not a discipline problem
- Why your numbers are not a verdict — they’re just information telling a story
- The first financial boundary every business owner needs: separating personal and business finances
- What “clean separation” actually looks like (and how to do it simply)
- How to create a tracking system that doesn’t overwhelm you
- Why structure creates safety — and safety creates capacity
- And how to start, even if you feel behind or messy
Christina also shares stories from her work with clients who felt overwhelmed, behind, or afraid to look at their numbers — and how clarity often brings relief, not more shame.
This episode is especially supportive if you’re:
- Self-employed, a solopreneur, or a small business owner
- Feeling behind or disorganized with your finances
- Avoiding your numbers because they feel heavy or stressful
- Getting ready for tax season and not sure where to start
- Wanting a simpler, more supportive relationship with money and structure
You don’t need a perfect system.
You need one that feels safe enough to use.
If you’re listening and thinking, “I don’t want to do this alone,” Christina offers:
- 1:1 support to help you untangle your numbers and create a simple plan
- And is currently building a workshop and larger program that combines practical financial systems with nervous system regulation, so you can build a business that actually feels supportive to run.
