Samantha Reed Cleaver is an Attachment Trauma Specialist and host of The Relationship Rehab Podcast on a mission to help people who feel anxious in their relationships heal inner child wounds, trauma, and sabotaging patterns so they can feel calm, confident, and secure in love.

Through her own healing journey, she discovered that her anxious attachment style was the biggest block keeping her stuck in toxic dynamics and disconnected from herself.

In this conversation, Samantha and Kate discuss why ambitious women often struggle with feeling anxious in relationships and how this trauma leaks into their business and career success.

Are you ready to stop losing yourself in relationships? Tune in to learn:

🧘‍♀️ Why nervous system regulation must come first—before setting boundaries or tackling mindset work—to cope with anxiety and conflict.

👧 How the inner child takes over when dating, replacing your confidence with a fear of abandonment and rejection.

🚦 The surprising ways anxious attachment sabotages your career, leading to underperformance, checking your phone constantly, and taking sick days after a simple argument.

🤩 How to shift from constantly proving your worth and earning approval to realizing that your worthiness is an undeniable fact that lives intrinsically within you.

🦋 The power of curiosity and how a physical transformation (like a new hairstyle or even a tattoo!) can be an initiation into an embodied, secure self.

This episode is a loving invitation to stop trying to fix your anxiety and start getting curious about the deeper parts of yourself that need healing and reparenting, so you can show up whole, magnetic, and fully in your authority.

My guest this week is the incredible Eritria Pitts, founder of Story Maestra. Eritria is a former journalist, comedian, and now a story coach and strategist for high-achieving women who are ready to liberate themselves from perfectionist performance and inherited narratives. She believes your greatest asset isn't your resume—it's your reclaimed story.

Tune in to learn how to move from feeling stuck despite your success to confidently stepping into your next aligned chapter:

✨ Why high-achieving women often lose touch with their authentic voice.

🤫 The power of embracing stillness to finally hear your inner voice, and why high-achievers resist it.

✍️ How writing down your story becomes the ultimate form of therapy and non-judgmental liberation.

😥 The fear of "throwing away" years of hard work, and the parental/societal pressure that keeps you from making a necessary shift.

❤️ Why being scared is a sign you're moving in the right direction, and how to "do it scared".

Eritria and I talk about what it takes to stop living up to other people's expectations and start taking the next right step that aligns with your true self. If you're on the precipice of a personal or professional reinvention, this episode is your permission slip to be brave, embrace the friction, and fully own your story.

Alisa Gracheva joins the show to tackle the invisible force that can secretly halt your authority and stall your business scale: unresolved trauma and deep-seated limiting beliefs. Alisa, who has walked a powerful healing journey herself, breaks down what trauma truly is and how it’s encoded in your physiology as negative beliefs that keep you playing small.

This conversation is the deep dive into the mindset block and unseen resistance that we often experience, including:

💔 The shocking truth about how negative beliefs like "I'm not good enough" act as a trauma response, not a personal flaw.

🧠 How emotional numbness, anxiety, and self-sabotaging coping mechanisms (like drinking) are your body's signal that your voice is suppressed and your potential is unfulfilled.

🧘‍♀️ The power of Somatic Work and EMDR in literally rewriting the neural pathways that are holding your leadership back.

🚧 Why comparing your struggle to others is a form of self-minimization that prevents you from setting healthy boundaries.

✨ The essential first step to becoming your "strongest support system" and attracting meaningful, aligned connections and support systems.

If you’ve been feeling a frustrating internal disconnect—knowing you’re capable of more but lacking the clarity and unwavering confidence to unlock that potential—this episode is your roadmap to the healing that precedes your greatest expansion. It all starts with you, and Alisa is here to remind you that your personal power is waiting on the other side of this discomfort.
