    Breaking Free From Trauma Bonds & Reclaiming Your Life with Dr. Nadine Macaluso

    In this episode of In Heels with Keni Silva, Keni sits down with therapist, trauma expert, bestselling author, and former model Dr. Nadine Macaluso—known as Dr. Nae—for a candid conversation about trauma bonds, toxic relationships, shame, and what it actually takes to leave and heal. Known to many as the real-life inspiration behind Naomi Belfort in The Wolf of Wall Street, Dr. Macaluso transformed her own experience in a destructive relationship into a career helping others understand the psychological patterns that can make unhealthy relationships so difficult to escape. Keni and Dr. Macaluso unpack what a trauma bond actually is, how it develops, and why someone can recognize that a relationship is hurting them and still struggle to walk away. They explore manipulation, shame, complex PTSD, the loss of self-trust, and the emotional and physiological patterns that can keep people attached long after they know something is wrong. Dr. Macaluso also shares what healing can look like after leaving: recognizing patterns, rebuilding trust in yourself, reconnecting with your identity, and learning to create healthier relationships moving forward. Drawing from both her personal experience and her work as a therapist, she shares insights from her book, Run Like Hell: A Therapist’s Guide to Recognizing, Escaping, and Healing From Trauma Bonds. This conversation is for anyone who has ever wondered why it can be so difficult to leave an unhealthy relationship—and how to begin finding yourself again once you do. ⭐ Loved This Episode?

    What Women Should Know About Pelvic Floor Health with Courtney Virden

    In this episode of In Heels with Keni Silva, Keni sits down with movement and pelvic floor expert Courtney Virden, creator of the iCORE Method, for an eye-opening conversation about what women should know about pelvic floor health. From bladder leaks and back pain to sexual health, childbirth, aging, and perimenopause, Courtney explains why many symptoms women are taught to accept as “normal” may deserve a closer look. Keni and Courtney discuss why pelvic floor dysfunction isn’t simply about weakness, why Kegels aren’t the answer for everyone, and how breathing, posture, fascia, stress, and movement throughout the body can influence pelvic floor function. Courtney also shares her own experience with pelvic floor dysfunction after motherhood and how it ultimately led her to develop the iCORE Method, a whole-body approach designed to help women better understand and support their bodies. They also explore how pelvic health changes as women age, why these issues can affect women regardless of whether they’ve given birth, and why conversations about women’s bodies need to become much more open. This episode is an empowering conversation about understanding your body, questioning what you’ve been told is “normal,” and taking a more informed approach to women’s health at every stage of life. ⭐ Loved This Episode?

    Choosing Happiness: Finding Balance, Resilience & a New Definition of Success with Dr. Marissa Pei

    In this episode of In Heels with Keni Silva, Keni sits down with organizational psychologist, bestselling author, media personality, and happiness expert Dr. Marissa Pei for a conversation about what it really means to choose happiness—even when life doesn’t go according to plan. Known as the “Asian Oprah,” Dr. Marissa has spent decades studying human behavior and helping people move from stress, negativity, and burnout toward greater balance and fulfillment. But her philosophy isn’t about pretending everything is perfect. It’s about changing the way we respond to life’s challenges and recognizing that happiness is a practice, not a destination. Keni and Dr. Marissa explore the connection between success and happiness, why achievement alone doesn’t create fulfillment, how our perspective shapes our relationships and careers, and what it takes to build resilience when life becomes difficult. Dr. Marissa also shares practical tools for breaking patterns of negativity, practicing gratitude, and creating more joy in everyday life. Drawing from her work as an organizational psychologist, her bestselling book 8 Ways to Happiness from Wherever You Are, and decades of conversations with leaders and public figures, Dr. Marissa challenges the idea that we have to sacrifice our well-being in order to succeed. Can we be ambitious and still live a balanced life? Can happiness really be a choice? And what happens when we stop waiting for circumstances to change and begin changing the way we experience them? This episode is a reminder that success isn’t only about what we accomplish—it’s also about how we feel while we’re living the life we’ve worked so hard to create. ⭐ Loved This Episode?
