The Nerve to Heal

The Nerve to Heal

The Nerve to Heal is hosted by two certified Sexological Bodyworkers who dive into the rich and often misunderstood connection between the mind, body, and nervous system. Together, they explore how emotional and physical pain are deeply intertwined—and how lasting healing requires more than just symptom relief. With science-backed insights, personal stories, and candid conversations, this podcast unpacks the role of embodiment, trauma, nervous system regulation, and conscious intimacy in real, lasting transformation. Expect grounded wisdom, a bit of sass, and a radically honest look at what it means to heal from the inside out.

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
