    213. Did We Start the Year in Survival Mode? Our HONEST 2026 Life Update

    On this episode of She Rises, we’re sharing a real life update because 2026 was harder than we expected. January felt heavy, slow, and emotional. We talk about the residue from 2025, burnout after a big end-of-year push, and what it’s been like starting the year in a shedding, reflective season instead of a motivated one. This episode is for anyone feeling flat, behind, or quietly overwhelmed as the year begins and needs a reminder it’s okay to be HUMAN. A gentle listen for you today.

    212. Trust issues &amp; Jealousy that Stings: How Do I Love Again After Being Cheated on?

    On this week’s Bestie Advice segment, we’re talking about jealousy, the kind that lingers after betrayal and quietly follows you into new relationships. We respond to an anonymous listener who shares her experience of being cheated on. This conversation explores where jealousy often comes from, how past wounds shape present reactions, and why these feelings are usually less about your partner and more about the safety you feel within yourself. Supportive, honest, and very big-sister energy. 🤍

    211. Tijana’s Breakup Story: What really happened? The Lessons she learned the hard way

    On this week’s She Rises Podcast, Tijana shares her breakup story - what really happened and the lessons she learned the hard way. What began as an instant, deeply aligned connection slowly turned into a push–pull dynamic that left her feeling uncertain, unchosen, and disconnected from herself. In this episode, she opens up about the anxious–avoidant dance, ignoring her intuition, and staying longer than she should have while trying to believe words that didn’t match actions, reflecting on the hard truths heartbreak teaches: you can’t love someone into loving you, you can’t prove your worth, confusion is a red flag, and intuition never lies.

    210. How “The really nice girls” have some work to do

    On this episode of She Rises, we’re unpacking the conditioning so many women grow up with, the pressure to be nice at the expense of being honest, expressed, and self-respecting. We explore how “nice girl” behaviour often shows up as people-pleasing, over-extending, avoiding conflict, and abandoning your own needs just to keep the peace or protect how others perceive you. We talk about why being nice isn’t the same as being kind, and how niceness can quietly suppress the parts of you that are opinionated, fiery, strong-willed, or deeply authentic. If you’ve ever felt exhausted from always being the “easy” one, this episode will help you see why and what actually changes when you stop abandoning yourself to be liked. tune in to get the full scope!

    208. Social Media DO's &amp; DONT's: Your Feed Is Shaping You More Than You Think

    In this episode of She Rises we’re unpacking what it actually looks like to have a healthy relationship with social media without letting it impact your confidence, nervous system, or sense of self. We talk about the difference between using social media as a tool versus unconsciously measuring your worth against it, how to recognise when scrolling is disconnecting you from yourself, and why boundaries online are just as important as the ones you set in your real life. This episode is a reminder that social media isn’t the problem how we engage with it is. And when you learn to lead yourself in that space, it becomes something that supports your growth instead of silently draining it.

    Honest, practical, and empowering. 🤍

    205. Re-Parenting Ourselves: What Inner Child Healing Really Looks Like

    On this week’s She Rises Podcast, we’re sharing our lived experiences of inner child healing, not from theory, but from the quiet, everyday moments where it actually shows up. We talk about the subtle ways we were still parenting ourselves the way we were raised: being hard on ourselves, rushing our healing, minimising emotions, and feeling the need to always be “good” or “strong,” even when that wasn’t true to how we felt inside. If you’ve ever felt frustrated with your healing, disconnected from your emotions, or like you’re doing everything “right” but still feel tender inside, this conversation will help you feel less alone and more understood. tune in for the full scope!
