    How to Come Back to Life After Loss (with Erin Barbosa)

    What happens when a loss changes not only your life, but who you are inside of it? In this episode of She Saves Herself, Shannon sits down with trauma-informed therapist and grief coach Erin Barbosa to talk about the often-overlooked part of grief: learning how to live after an experience has changed you. Together, they unpack identity shifts, intimacy after trauma, why safety has to come before connection, the body signals we're conditioned to override, and the role creativity can play in bringing us back to life. You'll also hear about Erin's "baby chick" approach to healing, the power of telling your story, and why creative health may be one of the missing pieces in the healing conversation. If you're somewhere between the life you've outgrown and the person you're becoming, this episode is for you.

    The Real Reason Relationships Fall Apart: When You Stop Romanticizing People

    In this episode of The Real Reason Relationships Fall Apart, Shannon explores the hidden psychology behind why so many relationships slowly unravel — and why the pain often comes from the collapse of fantasy, not just betrayal itself. Inspired by the teachings of Carl Jung and reflections explored and excerpted from the YouTube channel Jung Thoughts, the video "The Day You Stop Romanticizing People," this conversation dives into the masks people wear, the unconscious roles we assign each other, and the emotional patterns we mistake for love. You'll learn why some people only feel safe around the version of you that self-abandons, how projections distort connection, why awareness changes your relationships forever, and what happens when you stop betraying your intuition just to keep people close. This episode is a deep exploration of human nature, emotional dependency, self-worth, healing, and the moment clarity finally replaces illusion.
