What happens when life keeps handing you the same painful lesson until you finally decide to stop repeating it? Today’s guest, Raena O’Neil, knows what it means to start over—with nothing but a suitcase and a son to care for. From getting swept into Vegas’ nightlife scene… from becoming a young mom and walking away from multiple toxic relationships… to holding her mother’s hand as she passed, and finally realizing she had her own demons to fight—Ranae’s journey is about more than survival. It’s about healing, self-trust, and radical reinvention. In this conversation, Ranae opens up about how her mother’s addiction shaped her, how co-dependency nearly broke her, and how she used every rock bottom as a reason to rise. We talk about the grief she buried, the weight she carried (physically and emotionally), and how lymphatic drainage transformed not only her body, but her purpose.

This episode is for anyone who’s ever asked:
— “Why do I keep ending up in the same kind of relationship?”
— “What am I trying to fix on the outside that still hurts on the inside?”
— And, “Is it too late to become the version of me I know I was made to be?”
This is your reminder that it’s never too late—if you’re willing to stop settling, do the inner work, and finally stop sacrificing yourself for someone else.
