"Nice girls end up in trunks." 😳 My supervisee said that to me, and I haven't stopped thinking about it since. And I've repeated it to clients more times than I can count now!

There's a difference between being nice and being kind, and confusing the two can literally put you in danger.

Niceness is others-regulated. It needs approval to survive. It collapses under pressure.
Kindness is self-sourced. It tells the truth. It can say no and still be loving.

In Monday's episode I'm breaking down why being "sweet and small" ISN'T the same as being kind, plus I break down the skill that helps you speak up without feeling like a villain.

Drop a 🚙 if you were raised to be nice at all costs. Let's talk about it.

On tomorrow’s podcast I’m joined by my friend, , Narrative Focused Trauma Care Certified story work coach.

Not a chance. Not a chance."

That's what my body said when I imagined calling my parents for help that night. Not because I didn't need rescuing. But because calling them would have meant more trouble, not less.

Sharing our stories of harm show us the binds. In this week's episode of Hey Tabi, I get real and my friend and story work coach Jen Vrooman engage one of my very real stories.

"You are a pastor's daughter. You cannot ever make a mistake — because others will follow you into the gates of hell."

That was the message I carried as a little girl.

And when the adults who were supposed to say no… didn't? I picked up their responsibility too. Because that's what I'd been trained to do. I'm sharing one of my own stories this week, and it gets real. 🎙️

If you also grew up carrying weight that was never yours to hold, this episode is for you.

What if the thing you've been afraid to say out loud… is exactly what could heal you? 🤍

Story work coach Jen Vrooman joins me this week to talk about narrative-focused trauma care — and why putting your story on paper and sharing it with a safe coach or therapist is more powerful than you think.

I'm on the hot seat this week. I share one of my very real stories and you get to listen in while Jen engages it. If you've ever wanted a sneak peak at what story work coaching looks like, this episode is one you can't miss.

40% of Christian women struggle with po*******hy. And for Gen Z women? It's 69%. 👇
Yet the church almost never talks about it — which means women carry the shame of the addiction and the shame of having "a man's problem."

But here's the truth: it's not a man's problem. It's a 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 problem.

Nick Stumbo of Pure Desire Ministries joins licensed trauma therapist Tabitha Westbrook on Hey Tabi this Monday to talk about what healing looks like for women — because you deserve recovery too.

🎙️ New episode drops March 9th on all major podcast platforms and The Journey and The Process YouTube channel.

What's the difference between confession and recovery? More than you think.

Monday's all new Hey Tabi episode is one of our most important yet — covering p**n addiction, betrayal trauma, and why the Church needs to talk about ALL of this differently. Join me as I talk with Pure Desire's Nick Stumbo about it all.
