Reclaiming Life and Identity: Healing from Trauma Bonds and Empowering Others to Break Free with Therapist and Trauma Bond Expert Dr. Nadine Macaluso


Listen Later

In this special anniversary episode of Judging Meghan, we’re celebrating four years since the podcast first began. And, in an unexpected twist of fate, my very first guest, Dr. Nadine Macaluso, is back with me! It wasn’t something we had planned, but life has a funny way of working out. 

Known for her groundbreaking work in trauma bonding and complex PTSD, Dr. Nadine opens up about her personal journey from being the ex-wife of the infamous “Wolf of Wall Street” to becoming a leading therapist and author. We dive deep into her new book Run Like Hell, her passion for helping others break free from toxic relationships, and how her own experiences of trauma and healing have shaped her mission to empower those feeling trapped in damaging cycles.

We also explore the chaotic real-life events portrayed in The Wolf of Wall Street, from the terrifying squall at sea to life-saving moments in Florida, and how much was left unsaid on screen. Beyond the drama and glitz, this episode uncovers the deeply personal experiences of overcoming trauma, reclaiming personal power, and the road to recovery after leaving a controlling relationship.

This episode is a full-circle moment, celebrating resilience, hope, and the power of never giving up. If you’re feeling stuck or lost, let Dr. Nadine’s story remind you that healing is always possible, and no matter how difficult things may seem, it’s never too late to rewrite your story. Join us for an inspiring and raw conversation that explores the complexities of trauma, the importance of support systems, and the path to reclaiming your voice and personal power.
