Welcome to Season 2 of Salt & Sovereignty. This time, we’re stepping into the fire.

In this opening episode, Ashley and Lizza cross the threshold into the raw, complex landscape of betrayal. Not just betrayal by others, but the heartbreak of betraying yourself, and the ache of having once been the one to hurt someone else.

This conversation includes descriptions of:

• friendship rupture
• emotional manipulation
• dissociation and somatic trauma symptoms
• grief and relational loss
• subtle grooming and shame
• the slow rebuilding of self-trust
