Savannah sits down with therapist, speaker, and author Matt Wade for a conversation that gets real about relationships, trauma, and what it actually takes to heal. Matt has played a personal role in Savannah’s life over the years, helping her navigate some of the hardest seasons she’s faced, so this episode is less like an interview and more like an honest conversation between two people who’ve done the work.Matt opens up about the moment his own marriage nearly fell apart and the long road it took to rebuild it. What followed was years of therapy, confronting ego, childhood wounds, and the painful realization that healing requires you to face the parts of yourself you’d rather avoid. Savannah shares pieces of her own journey along the way, including the ways trauma and trust can show up in relationships long after the moment that caused them.They talk about secrets, emotional safety, attachment styles, and why so many couples unknowingly repeat the same patterns in their relationships. Matt also explains how trauma doesn’t just affect one person or one moment in time. It can carry through families and generations if the work isn’t done.From inner child work and therapy breakthroughs to the importance of repair after conflict, this episode is full of practical insight for anyone trying to build healthier relationships with themselves and the people they love.Because healing may be simple… but it’s rarely easy.Thank you to our sponsors for supporting our show!- Wildgrain: Get $30 off your first box, plus FREE croissants FOR LIFE at https://www.wildgrain.com/unlocked or you can use promo code UNLOCKED at checkout!- Progressive: Join the over 28 million drivers who trust Progressive.
