Ep 98 - 8 Signs You've Met Your Soulmate
In this episode of the Reclaimed Podcast, Sara explores the difference between a soulmate connection and a trauma bond, and why so many people confuse intensity, chemistry, and emotional highs with real love. Drawing from personal experience, nervous system science, and energetic truth, she shares what love is meant to feel like when it’s rooted in safety rather than survival.
Sara explains how trauma bonds activate old wounds, anxiety, and self-abandonment, while soulmate relationships regulate the nervous system, support growth, and feel steady without sacrificing passion. This episode helps you understand why calm can initially feel unfamiliar, how to discern alignment beyond attraction, and what it truly means to be chosen consistently.
Here are some key takeaways from this episode:
- Soulmate connections feel safe, mutual, and emotionally regulating rather than anxious or confusing.
- Trauma bonds often recreate familiar chaos and activate old survival patterns.
- Effortless communication and shared values matter more than intensity or chemistry.
- True love supports growth without competition, proving, or self-abandonment.
If you’ve been questioning your relationship patterns or wondering whether love is supposed to feel this hard, this episode will help you recalibrate your expectations, trust your body’s wisdom, and open yourself to a love that feels expansive, secure, and deeply nourishing.
In this episode, I also share how my own healing journey led me to write Mangia, a cookbook created to nourish the body, regulate the nervous system, and support emotional healing. If you’re craving deeper nourishment and restoration. Get your copy of Mangia.
