The Healers Café

Hi, it's Dr Manon Bolliger, ND and I want to welcome you to the Healers Cafe. I am so excited to be doing this series of interviews and what I'll be doing is, is asking all kinds of healthcare practitioners, doctors, healers of all types, to really share with all of you their experience, why they became healers, what called them what they think about this being a healer thing. Is it, a thing? Who's really healing in this, what they've experienced from their their interaction with clients and patients and what the takeaways and understanding of what the process of healing is all about and the process of life. So that's the essence of what I'm doing. I'm hoping that this will serve also for patients that have issues and are looking for different ways of approaching it. * De-Registered, revoked & retired after 30 years of practice.

  6. Overcoming Betrayal and Infidelity to Rebuild Your Life - Samantha Bailey on the Healers Café

    Overcoming Betrayal and Infidelity to Rebuild Your Life - Samantha Bailey on the Healers Café

    In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT, speaks with Samantha Bailey about navigating the journey of healing after betrayal, embracing forgiveness, and finding purpose through resilience. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/samantha-bailey        Highlights from today's episode include: Samantha Bailey  you know, he was so amazing to me and treated me wonderful. And when I started my healing journey, I realized that there were many signs. But when you trust someone completely, you don't, you're not looking for anything, so you take them at their word Samantha Bailey  It was like someone threw a grenade into my heart and it exploded, and the enemy was my husband, who, again, was supposed to be there to protect me and love me and that wasn't the case.  Manon Bolliger  11:58 So, it really is about acknowledging what happened and moving forward. I mean, not avoiding the feelings that you would go through, but not kind of roasting in them, basically.   ABOUT SAMANTHA BAILEY: Born and raised in Canada, I moved to Texas in the early 90s, making it my permanent home. As a mother of six and grandmother of four, my life has been centered around nurturing and supporting others, a theme that carried into my professional life. I thrived in roles that allowed me to make a positive impact on people, focusing on empathy, understanding, and service. However, my world was turned upside down when I uncovered traumatic truths about my marriage. Learning of my husband’s hidden world—sugar babies, escorts, and numerous affairs—left me feeling shattered, lost, and utterly alone. In that darkness, I found myself in need of the very support I had always offered others. Journaling became my refuge, a place to pour out my pain and begin to heal. This journey ultimately led to the creation of my book, Deceptive Liaisons, written as a survival guide for anyone experiencing similar struggles, hoping to bring them solace and strength. I am also currently training to become a Certified PBT Coach (Post Betrayal Transformation) to deepen my understanding and enhance my ability to help others. Betrayal trauma, whether in personal relationships, friendships, or family, can feel overwhelming and isolating. I am passionate about guiding others through the process, offering them the tools, support, and hope they need to heal. In my book, I offer insights on crucial first steps after betrayal, focusing on self-care and emotional safety. I also cover common mistakes that can hinder healing, sharing guidance to avoid actions that might prolong the pain. Having survived betrayal myself, I believe in the power of resilience, and my mission is to help others not just survive, but rebuild and ultimately thrive. Core purpose/passion: My mission is to empower those who have faced betrayal and trauma by sharing my own journey of healing and resilience. Through my story, I hope to offer guidance and support for anyone navigating their darkest moments, helping them find the strength to rebuild their lives and emerge stronger. I’m dedicated to fostering a community of understanding and courage, reminding each person that no matter how broken they may feel, they have the power to rise and thrive. Transformation is possible, and my goal is to inspire others to reclaim their lives with renewed strength and purpose.  Website | Facebook | Instagram | TikTok     ABOUT MANON BOLLIGER, FCAH, RBHT  As a de-registered (2021) board-certified naturopathic physician & in practice since 1992, I’ve seen an average of 150 patients per week and have helped people ranging from rural farmers in Nova Scotia to stressed out CEOs in Toronto to tri-athletes here in Vancouver.  My resolve to educate, empower and engage people to take charge of their own health is evident in my best-selling books:  'What Patients Don’t Say if Doctors Don’t Ask: The Mindful Patient-Doctor Relationship' and 'A Healer in Every Household: Simple Solutions for Stress'.  I also teach BowenFirst™ Therapy through and hold transformational workshops to achieve these goals.

About

Hi, it's Dr Manon Bolliger, ND and I want to welcome you to the Healers Cafe. I am so excited to be doing this series of interviews and what I'll be doing is, is asking all kinds of healthcare practitioners, doctors, healers of all types, to really share with all of you their experience, why they became healers, what called them what they think about this being a healer thing. Is it, a thing? Who's really healing in this, what they've experienced from their their interaction with clients and patients and what the takeaways and understanding of what the process of healing is all about and the process of life. So that's the essence of what I'm doing. I'm hoping that this will serve also for patients that have issues and are looking for different ways of approaching it. * De-Registered, revoked & retired after 30 years of practice.
