Neha is also the creator of India’s first Global Sexual Trauma Healer’s Collective.   Together, Molly and Neha explore how sexual trauma, shame, spirituality, and culture intertwine – in the East and the West – and what true healing looks like when we reconnect to our hearts, bodies, and creative life force.

When loyalty becomes unboundaried, we lose sight of love and begin justifying anti-relational behavior. Group identification shapes perception, loyalty, and morality – and this phenomenon is playing out on the world stage. Unboundaried over-identification with a group – political, religious, social, or otherwise – can pull us away from our values. When loyalty becomes the highest law, love gets sacrificed and great harm is often done.   In this thought-provoking episode, Molly explores a powerful human pattern: our instinct to pick a “team” and stay loyal to it, no matter what. This can be healthy and fun – or it can do damage.   But there’s hope: We can step back, remember our shared humanity, and choose love as the guiding boundary. And in modeling this for ourselves, we become a mirror that can help others break free.   Check out therapist and author Molly Davis Moon’s website: www.boundaried.com.

Fear is real, but it doesn’t have to run you. In today’s destabilizing times, fear is marketed, and unfortunately, it’s easy to become accustomed to anxiety. But you matter. And your worth is not found in your performance, but in your being.   Through the wisdom of the rabbit – adaptable, resourceful, playful even on the edge of danger – Molly shares thoughts from her recent travels and explores how we can honor times of quiet burrowing, growth, and rest – without mistaking them for weakness.   Molly offers her original song, Sit You Rabbit Down, written in 2017 as a prayer of resilience in fearful times.

In this continuation of last week’s conversation, Molly unpacks how an extreme, individualistic culture – summed up by the myth of “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” – creates the perfect conditions for people-pleasing and codependency.

Have you ever been told that your struggles with codependency or people-pleasing are all about you? That if you were stronger, or clearer, or more disciplined, you wouldn’t be stuck in these patterns?   In this episode, Molly explores why that isn’t true. Codependency isn’t a personal flaw – it’s a set of traits that compassionate, empathic, loyal people often develop when they grow up in a culture that glorifies hyper-independence and devalues care.   In other words: It’s not your fault. Most importantly, you’ll hear why none of this means you’re broken.   Check out therapist and author Molly Davis Moon’s website: www.boundaried.com.
