61 – Why “Seeing the Innocence” Doesn’t Mean Accepting Bad Behavior

In this TIME FOR YOU episode, Shailia Stephens and Lea Wernli step straight into a tender, complicated territory: the moment when compassion becomes confusion. When “seeing the innocence” of others collides with the reality of manipulation, control, or simply bad behavior. They explore childhood conditioning, people-pleasing, boundary-blurring, and the strange silence we sometimes slip into when something feels off but we can’t yet name it. A clear, empowering conversation about trusting your inner knowing—and removing the spiritual gloss from unhealthy behavior.   Join Us For the "My Secret Life" Interview Series We created the “My Secret Life” interview series to share a new understanding of human psychology, making insights and change easier for everyone, no matter where they are in their journey.
