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. 🤍

Walking on Eggshells: The Exhausting Work of Managing Someone Else's Peace
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You walk into a room and you already know. Before anyone says a word. Before he even fully walks through the door. Your body has already adjusted — softer voice, different topic, a joke you don't find funny, just to test the temperature.
This episode is for the woman who has been doing this invisible, exhausting work for so long she doesn't even realize she's still doing it — even if she's already left.
In this episode, we talk about hypervigilance — what it actually is, why your body learned to do it, and why "just relax" was never going to work. We also go into what real peace actually feels like versus the external peace you've been manufacturing to keep everything calm on the outside.
You'll walk away with:
- A name for something you've been living but couldn't explain
- An understanding of why your nervous system is still bracing — even in safe situations
- One simple breath practice to begin telling your body it can stand down
