How to Trust Again Without Betraying Yourself | Colette Duvall Pondella (opens the original)

What happens when the danger is gone, but part of you is still waiting to be hurt again? In this deeply personal episode of Pleasure Principles , Shivam sits down with Colette Duvall Pondella , co-founder of Shadowland Foundation, to explore rebuilding trust after trauma, strengthening boundaries and learning to listen to yourself again.

Read excerpt
If you've been going through the motions, doing all the right things but feeling strangely numb underneath it, this conversation offers a different way back.

The Health Myths We Never Chose: Food, Guilt, and Your Body, with Victor Dedaj (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Most of us have a strange relationship with our own bodies. We have been told what to eat, what is clean, what is killing us, by so many voices that we stopped listening to the one inside our own skin. Somewhere in the noise, the body stopped being a place of pleasure and became a project to fix. In this Pleasure Principles conversation, health and nutrition coach Victor Dedaj pushes back on that. He challenges long-held beliefs about food and wellness, argues that much dietary advice of the pas
