Refine and Shine with Angelina Rivera

Refining Relationships: Boundaries, Healing, and Finding Strength in Adversity

Angelina Rivera Season 1 Episode 34

In this heartfelt episode of Refine and Shine, Angelina sits down with Darlene to discuss her inspiring journey of resilience, personal growth, and healing.

Darlene shares her experiences growing up as a minister’s daughter, moving frequently, and navigating the ups and downs of friendships. She opens up about a toxic friendship in Louisiana that taught her the importance of setting boundaries and confronting difficult relationships rather than running away from them.

The conversation delves into Darlene’s college years, where she met her husband in a chance encounter that blossomed into a supportive partnership. However, their marriage faced challenges, including mental health struggles and hidden addictions. Darlene recounts how perseverance, counseling, and setting clear boundaries helped them heal and grow stronger together.

Darlene also reflects on her personal journey of self-discovery through a 12-step program, which deepened her faith, reconnected her to her emotions, and strengthened her relationships. Alongside Angelina, she emphasizes the importance of having a support system, trusting your intuition, and finding lessons in every trial.

Tune in for an inspiring conversation that highlights the power of perseverance, compassion, and faith in overcoming life’s challenges.
