    Today’s guest is Skye Bellarmine—author, coach, keynote speaker, and survivor in every sense of the word. After surviving a catastrophic collision with a wrong-way driver that left her in a coma, Skye was told she would never walk or use her arm again. But she defied every prognosis. While recovering physically, she was also trapped in a twenty-year emotionally abusive marriage marked by narcissistic control, gaslighting, and trauma bonding.

    Skye ultimately broke free from that marriage, rebuilt her identity, and has made it her mission to help other women recognize the signs of narcissistic abuse, navigate high-conflict divorces, and walk the hard road back to self-worth, stability, and freedom.

    Through her Breaking Solace trilogy and transformational coaching, Skye teaches women how to reclaim their power, build a supportive tribe, and create a fulfilling life after toxic love. This is a conversation about grit, growth, and getting back up.
