In this episode, I sat down with the incredible Laurie Zrenda — a pharmacist, entrepreneur, and co-owner of Nightjar Cannabis in East Lyme, Connecticut. With 27 years in retail pharmacy and over a decade in the cannabis industry, Laurie is one of the pioneering women who helped shape Connecticut's medical marijuana program from the very beginning — and she is full of knowledge.

Listen in ladies - this part was personal for me — and I know it will be for so many of you. Laurie shares her expertise and knowledge on how cannabis has been a game-changer for her and others for sleep, pesky hot flashes & night sweats, sudden mood changes, cramps and inflammation.

In this powerful episode of the Limitless Ladies Network Podcast, host Tammy Dungan sits down with Dr. Debbie Silber, founder of the Post Betrayal Transformation (PBT) Institute and National Forgiveness Day, to explore the deep emotional wounds of betrayal and the path to complete healing.

Dr. Silber shares groundbreaking insights from her PhD research, revealing that betrayal is a unique trauma requiring specialized healing—not just another form of trauma. She introduces Post Betrayal Syndrome, a collection of physical, mental, and emotional symptoms that can linger for decades if left unaddressed, and explains why "time heals all wounds" simply doesn't apply to betrayal.

The conversation dives into the five predictable stages of healing from betrayal:

Pre-Betrayal – Neglecting emotional and spiritual needs

Shock & Trauma – The breakdown of body, mind, and worldview

Survival Mode – Where most people get stuck, clinging to small comforts and avoiding deeper healing

Finding a New Normal – Reclaiming power and turning down the stress response

Healing & Rebirth – Full transformation with a new worldview, self-love, and boundaries

Dr. Silber also addresses self-betrayal—how ignoring your own needs and breaking promises to yourself undermines healing. She emphasizes the critical importance of rebuilding self-trust and trusting your intuition before you can ever trust others again.

For women who feel "too broken to heal," Dr. Silber offers hope: You're not broken, you're bent. Betrayal can become a launchpad for becoming the strongest, wisest version of yourself—but only if you move intentionally through the stages of healing.

Her final piece of advice? It's not about you. Betrayal reflects the betrayer's unhealed wounds, not your worth.

If you've ever felt stuck after betrayal, this episode offers a roadmap to reclaim your power, rebuild trust, and step into a limitless future.

Episode Overview

Welcome to the Limitless Ladies Network podcast, where we share lessons to advocate and drive insightful, empathetic self-care. In this episode, we explore the ancient art of crystal healing with Mel, founder of Honeybee Jasmine Healing. Mel brings a unique blend of lived experience and professional training to create a holistic healing practice that meets people where they are on their wellness journey. Her compassionate, personalized approach is rooted in the belief that healing is not one-size-fits-all—it's a deeply individual process deserving customized care and unwavering support.

Meet Our Guest: Mel from Honeybee Jasmine Healing

Mel launched Honeybee Jasmine Healing in September after years of walking her own healing journey. She is in recovery from substance use and has healed from injuries sustained in a car accident. Through personal experience, Mel discovered the power of holistic pathways to get off extreme medications like narcotics and sustain both recovery and a healthy lifestyle.

"I started the business so that I can share that with everyone else and help people find what works for them," Mel explains. Crystal healing is just one of many holistic modalities she offers, alongside yoga, meditation, sound healing, aromatherapy, chakra alignment, recovery support, and more.
