What happens when the man you love is carrying trauma that shapes everything in your relationship, yet no one gives you a roadmap.
In today’s deeply heartfelt conversation, I sit down with Danielle Sabastain, creator of the CARE Framework and a woman who’s walked through the emotional fire of marriage, impacted by unhealed childhood trauma.
Danielle opens up about the moment her husband shared the truth about his past—and how that one conversation changed everything. Over the next eight years, she discovered that the usual advice about communication, space, or setting boundaries didn’t go deep enough for trauma-affected relationships. So she created what she couldn’t find.
If you’ve ever felt alone, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to support your partner and yourself… this conversation will feel like a lifeline.
💡 Inside This Episode, We Talk About:
Danielle’s personal story of navigating marriage through the lens of trauma
What makes trauma-impacted relationships so different, and why common advice doesn’t always apply
How wives often carry the emotional weight of their partner’s pain, silently
The CARE Framework: Danielle’s step-by-step process for emotional resilience, self-regulation, and relational healing
What it means to love with compassion, without losing yourself
You didn’t cause your partner’s trauma—but you’re affected by it every day. You deserve tools, support, and clarity to care for yourself, too.
