You Have the Power - The Road to Truth, Freedom and Real Connection
You Have the Power: The Road to Truth, Freedom and Real Connection is the space for high-achieving women who are done shrinking, diluting, or managing themselves to be more “acceptable” in relationships. This is for the woman who’s been called too intense, too emotional, too ambitious — yet knows her depth is her power.
Hosted by Darla Ridilla, certified somatic, trauma-informed relationship coach, this podcast brings you back to your truth, your agency, and your magnetic presence. After years of contorting herself to maintain connection, Darla chose a different path — and now she helps women step into relationships that feel aligned, steady, and real.
Here, we name the patterns strong women rarely say out loud: the quiet moments you override your own knowing, the tightening in your body when you hold back your truth, the pressure to keep the peace while disconnecting from yourself in the process.
If your life looks successful but something still feels out of sync, you’re not broken.
You’re simply ready for a more aligned way of relating.
Each episode blends grounded storytelling, somatic intelligence, and radically honest conversations that help you stop performing for love — and start leading with self-trust, clarity, and magnetic connection.
You’ll learn how to move from holding it all together on your own into aligned boundaries, how to stop walking on eggshells, and how to feel that unmistakable, full-body resonance in the relationships that matter most.
Because you’re not asking for too much — you’ve just been accepting too little.
This is your invitation to reclaim your voice, shift the old patterns, and return to the power that’s been yours all along… so you can create connection that feels like truth, freedom, and home.

21: Permission to Grieve
In this heartfelt episode, I open up about navigating the end of a relationship that ended suddenly and unexpectedly just before the holidays. Without the usual progression of a relationship fading over time, the recovery has been uniquely challenging. I share my journey of giving myself permission to grieve—allowing space for my feelings while setting a date to start moving forward.
Grief is messy, healing is imperfect, and that’s okay. Taking time alone for self-reflection has been a powerful tool for me, and I encourage you to honor your own grief while recognizing the value of setting boundaries around it. Breakups, while painful, can also be opportunities for incredible growth and positive change.
I discuss my decision to no longer give second chances in relationships where the underlying reasons for the breakup remain unresolved. This clarity has strengthened my resolve to date with intention, to see past relationships not as failures but as lessons, and to focus on helping other women navigate their relationships.
Healing is a journey, and small changes add up to transformative ones over time. It’s never too late to begin loving yourself, to seek healthy relationships, and to gain clarity on what you truly want. Let this episode inspire you to give yourself grace, honor your feelings, and keep striving for the love and life you deserve.
