Watch Us Thrive

Lianne Torres

Watch Us Thrive isn’t just a podcast, it’s a space to actually feel seen while you’re healing. I’m Lianne Torres, an intuitive oracle and tarot reader, content creator, and trauma-informed coach. Everything I share comes from both my intuition and my real-life experience. I talk a lot about my own healing journey, especially what it’s been like to come out of an abusive relationship and rebuild myself from the ground up. This isn’t surface-level healing. This is the messy, honest, “I had to learn myself all over again” type of work. You’ll hear collective readings, oracle messages, and real conversations about love, trauma, self-worth, and breaking cycles for good. Some episodes are spiritual. Some are emotional. All of them are meant to help you understand yourself better, trust your intuition, and move differently. If you’re doing the inner work, trying to let go of what hurt you, and learning how to choose yourself without guilt… you’re in the right place. Your story matters. Your healing is valid. And you don’t have to do it alone. New episodes drop every other Wednesday. Stay connected at watchusthrive.com.

    Episode 174 | Have You Outgrown Your Comfort Zone?

    Lately I’ve been sitting with a realization that I can’t ignore anymore: I’ve outgrown parts of my life that once felt safe. In this episode, I’m doing a collective tarot reading on what actually happens when your comfort zone starts feeling restrictive instead of protective. Because a lot of us think being comfortable means we’re secure… when really it means we’re staying somewhere we’re no longer meant to be. This episode/collective tarot reading walks through what might be keeping you stuck, what fear could be underneath the surface, and what your next aligned step actually looks like when your intuition starts getting louder. I also share what this shift looks like for me personally as I step more fully into my work as a tarot reader and stop treating my purpose like something I’m only allowed to do “on the side.” This conversation is for anyone in that in-between space where the old version of you no longer fits, but the next version hasn’t fully landed yet. And if that’s where you are right now, you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be✨ Channeled song for this episode: Escape from LA — The Weeknd If you’re interested in booking your own reading, check out my links below.

    Episode 173 | Five Years Later...What No One Tells You About Healing

    Today marks 5 years since I left a toxic & abusive relationship, and even though I’ve moved on, some things still hit hard. In this episode, I get real about what it actually takes to close a cycle, let go of someone who once meant everything, and finally make peace with the past. I share the lessons I learned the hard way, the resistance I faced in ending that chapter, and the ways I realized I was holding myself back without even knowing it.  I talk about: Why closure isn’t something they give you, it’s something you claim for yourselfThe resistance we feel when ending a relationship that shaped usHow I stopped blocking my own growth and learned to trust myselfWhy letting go and forgiving yourself is the real power move  If you’ve ever left someone behind but still feel tied to the past, or if you’re wondering how long it really takes to heal, this episode is for you. By the end, you’ll hear why moving on isn’t about forgetting, it’s about understanding yourself and reclaiming your life on your own terms. Check out my dating episode, as mentioned.

    Episode 172 | How Does Women Against Abuse Support Domestic Violence Survivors? with Joanna Otero-Cruz & Jamie Miller

    Trigger warning: This episode mentions domestic violence. Listener discretion advised. This week’s episode is a powerful, honest conversation about what domestic violence really looks like, beyond the headlines and the assumptions. I’m joined by 2 incredible women from Philadelphia who are doing life-changing work through Women Against Abuse. Joanna Otero-Cruz, Executive Director and President, and Jamie Miller, former MMA fighter, survivor, and advocate, sit down with me to talk about what it truly takes to leave an abusive relationship and rebuild your life afterward. We talk openly as survivors about the realities people don’t always see: the fear, isolation, financial barriers, and why leaving is often the most dangerous moment. Joanna shares what happens behind the scenes when survivors reach out for help and what real support actually looks like in those first critical moments. Jamie takes us into her journey from seeking shelter with her daughter to becoming a board member and teaching trauma-informed self-defense to other women who are reclaiming their strength. This conversation is about more than survival. It’s about turning pain into purpose, rebuilding trust in yourself, and learning what safety really means. If you or someone you love needs support, resources from Women Against Abuse are available. Resources: ✔️Feeling stuck?

    Episode 171 | What No One Tells You About Dating After Healing

    After 4½ years of celibacy, I stepped back into the dating world and quickly realized that healing❤️‍🩹 and dating are 2 very different experiences. Doing the inner work changed me, but dating showed me where that growth actually lives... in boundaries, intuition, and knowing when something doesn’t feel right. In this week's solo episode, I talk about re-entering the dating scene, the reality of dating apps, and the lessons I learned from the men I met along the way. Some situations showed me how much I’ve grown, while others reminded me why protecting my peace matters💆🏻‍♀️ I also share what it was like unexpectedly getting a sense of closure connected to my past and how that moment helped me move forward in a new way. This is an honest look at what happens when you start dating again after healing, by learning to trust yourself, recognize red flags🚩sooner, and choose differently than you did before.

    Let me just say this now, sis. 2026 is not a “stay the same and hope for magic” kind of year. It’s a rebirth, a movement, and alignment or nothing. In this week's episode of Watch Us Thrive, I’m sitting down with Jen aka the Spiritual Baddie, and we’re breaking down the real energetic and astrological themes for each sign coming in 2026. No, not the cute, surface-level predictions... we're talking about the deep stuff, the shadow work, and the uncomfortable but necessary growth that's needed for all of us. Growth is available. Opportunity is available. But it requires self-trust and bold honesty with yourself. This year is about choosing yourself. Setting boundaries without guilt & honoring your truth without shrinking. Why? Because you are not broken...you are becoming. 2026 is asking you to mature emotionally & to release what no longer aligns. It's asking you to stop abandoning yourself for potential and to build a life that actually feels safe, joyful, and aligned. The choice is up to you, sis! This week, Jen & I are talking about: Why 2026 carries strong rebirth energyThe shift from attachment-based love to emotionally mature loveHow financial growth ties into self-worthWhy shadow work is non-negotiable this yearSetting boundaries without guiltChoosing alignment over familiarityThe power of patience and self-trustCheck out my BRAND NEW WEBSITE! 🤩 Keep glowing, growing & thriving🖤 Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/watch-us-thrive--5682406/support.
