You Have the Power: The Road to Truth, Freedom and Real Connection is the podcast for high-achieving women who’ve been told they’re too much — too intense, too emotional, too ambitious — and are done performing for love or contorting themselves to fit into relationships that silence their truth.
Hosted by Darla Ridilla, a certified somatic trauma-informed relationship coach and former people-pleaser turned powerhouse, this show is where strong, self-aware women unravel the hidden patterns of self-abandonment that keep them stuck — whether with a partner, parent, boss, or friend.
This isn’t just about healing from your past. It’s about reclaiming your power now — breaking free from the lie that you have to shrink to be loved, prove to be chosen, or tolerate dysfunction just to stay connected.
If you’ve built a life that looks successful but feels misaligned — if you’re tired of holding it all together while wondering why real connection still feels just out of reach — you’re not broken.
You’re just ready for the truth.
Each episode blends raw storytelling, nervous-system wisdom, and radically honest conversations to help you stop performing for love so you can start leading with self-trust, clarity, and radical boundaries.
Because you’re not asking for too much — you’ve just been accepting too little.
It’s time to reclaim your voice, rewire your patterns, and remember the power that’s been yours all along.
