info_outline 98 - Trust. The Misunderstood SuperpowerThe Marina Perry Podcast
This week on the Marina Perry Podcast, Marina hosts a solo episode to discuss the human superpower of trust. Too many of us don't have enough trust— in ourselves, in life, or in others. As a result, we essentially lack safety, and when we lack safety, we seek to control more. We shrink, we contract, and we don't live fully expressed and liberated. Trust is so fundamental, yet there are mistaken beliefs that we hold around it. Trust is not actually earned. It can be, but that's not actually how it exists. Trust is only ever given, so even when someone proves themselves trustworthy, you...

info_outline 92 - Candid Chats: Allowing Your Sexuality to Evolve w/ Lauren VioletThe Marina Perry Podcast
This week on the Marina Perry Podcast, Marina is joined once again by Lauren Violet for a second dive into the topic of sexuality, sexual trauma, and the ever-evolving relationship we have with sex. How sexually free we are is not directly related to how much sex we’re having, but rather how we approach the concepts of sex and sexuality. For Lauren, she was raised to view sex was for married people, not for pleasure or fun, and taking part in it outside of marriage was viewed as sinful. For most of her early life she abstained because that was what she thought she was supposed to do....
info_outlineThis week on the Marina Perry Podcast, Marina is joined by Queen of Confidence, Erika Cramer. Erika has survived many different traumas throughout her life including, childhood abuse, foster care, loss, and more, and is the definition of transforming trauma into triumph. Erika believes all women are queens of confidence and the route to achieving that level is to see it in ourselves.
Curvy women struggle with finding clothes that fit more than any other demographic in Australia, so back when she was a clothing stylist, she started out as the Queen of Curves. But through that journey, she felt the exclusion of other types of women, and she decided she didn’t want to stand in that spotlight. So she changed the name to be more inclusive to any woman looking for a leader.
Erika grew up in the US. Her mom was in and out of mental hospitals, so Erika spent a lot of time in foster care. She was constantly looking for validation, had no sense of belonging or confidence, and was very angry. At 17 she joined the army, thinking that was the only way she could get out of her world. Years later, Erika was involved in a very bad car accident, spent 30 days in the hospital, and had to learn to walk again.
Thinking that was her wakeup call, she left the military and started on her journey of becoming a model and stylist. At the age of 23, her husband was involved in a drunk driving accident and passed away. Feeling lost and alone, she dated several men who were not good people, and ended up relocating to Australia. While living in Australia, she realized she couldn’t outrun the past and really needed to do the work to heal and grow. That set her on the path to becoming the Queen of Confidence and meeting her now-husband.
You need to look in the mirror, and realize that the common denominator in your life is you. It’s not because of anything else, and we can’t keep blaming all those other things. If you’ve had a lot of terrible things happen to you in your life, they can be easy to blame for where you are now. But so many people have had truly horrible things happen in their pasts and are thriving. Look to those people, and take responsibility for the life you have and the future you want. We can’t change anything through anger and judgment.
What You Will Learn:
- Background on Erika and her journey.
- How to transform trauma into triumph.
- Taking responsibility for our present and future.
