194: Self-Betrayal, Healing, And The Courage To Be You: With Guest, Hazel Mason
Episode 194
Monday, 19 January, 2026
Send us a textIf you’ve ever made yourself smaller to keep the peace, this conversation will feel like a mirror and a map. We sit down with Hazel—life coach, retreat leader, and addiction counselor—to unpack self-betrayal: the quiet ways we trade our needs, values, and voice for approval, and why it can feel impossible to stop when your nervous system equates attachment with safety. Hazel shares her path through infidelity, abusive relationships, and recovery, and how experiential coaching helps women turn insight into action.We dig into the mechanics of people-pleasing and identity loss: how preferences get edited, friendships fade, and roles like mom or partner swallow the person underneath. Together we trace these patterns back to core beliefs formed in childhood—those early moments that taught us love must be earned and feelings are too much—and we offer practical steps to update those beliefs. You’ll hear simple ways to rediscover what you actually like, how to notice when your body says no, and how small, repeated acts of self-loyalty rebuild trust from the inside out.We also talk boundaries without the buzzwords. Think clear agreements, real consequences, and the courage to protect your peace with family, partners, and yourself. Hazel shares how her retreats create space for deep inner work—grief, betrayal, core beliefs—while a faith-centered lens reframes worth as inherent, not negotiated. That shift changes everything: relationships get clearer, parenting gets steadier, and the urge to outsource validation starts to fade. If you’re ready to stop abandoning yourself and start becoming yourself, this one is for you.Hazel MasonEmail: hazel@hazelmason.comhttps://go.hazelmason.com/retreatsIf this conversation helps you breathe deeper or see your next step more clearly, share it with someone who needs it.
