This episode right here? It’s not for the faint of heart.
In one of the most raw, unfiltered conversations ever recorded, Trent Shelton sits down with part of his team, Brenda Cardenas, but this time, she’s asking the questions. The real ones. The uncomfortable ones. The ones people have been wanting to ask Trent for years... but never had the chance.
Nothing was off-limits. And Trent kept it all the way real.
Some of the truths shared in this conversation might sting. They might challenge you. But they were spoken with love, because sometimes the truth that hurts the most is the one that sets you free.
This isn’t just another podcast episode. This is a heart-check. A mirror. A breakthrough waiting to happen.
Listen if you're ready to grow. Listen if you're tired of fake.
But don’t press play unless you’re ready for the truth.

Hey Rehabbers:
In this powerful, unfiltered conversation, I sit down with the incredible Spanki Farris, storyteller, creative force, and truth-teller, to talk about the kind of healing that doesn’t just live on the surface.
We talk about what it means to grow up around dysfunction, how to find peace even when your past is loud, and how to protect your boundaries—even with the people you love the most.
Spanki opens up about motherhood, forgiveness, family wounds, and why sometimes the hardest people to set boundaries with… are the ones who raised you.
This is one of those episodes that feels like therapy and church at the same time. Raw. Real. Necessary.

HEY REHABBERS:
In this raw and hilarious episode, me and @MSMARIASHELTON get real about the things we don’t like about each other, pet peeves, quirks, and all the stuff couples usually keep to themselves. But we don’t stop there. We also talk about what we do love, what keeps us together, and how we handle conflict, connection, and growth in marriage. It’s honest, funny, and real. If you’re in a relationship (or want to be), you’ll feel this.

You don’t need to prove your worth to people who can’t even see it. Stop overselling yourself. Stop explaining, justifying, or shrinking to make others comfortable. The right people won’t need a sales pitch — they’ll recognize your value because you live it, not because you perform it. In this episode, we break down how to stand in quiet confidence, let go of desperate validation, and trust that who you are is already enough.
