CONTENT WARNING: Toxic Relationships & Intimate Partner Violence

In this episode of Tough Stuff Podcast, I had the honor of interviewing Chelsea Jones, co-founder of Chelsea and Rachel Co., where we explored her personal journey — from trauma bonds, to divorce and single parenting, to colon cancer… and how life’s unexpected twists and turns taught her the power of leaning into vulnerability. We also explored how she is able to remain optimistic about life by trusting the process and prioritizing self-reflection, curiosity, and gratitude. Listen in to glean life-changing wisdom from Chelsea's inspiring story of triumph over some of life’s greatest adversities.
