Trigger Warning: This episode discusses sexual abuse, personal safety, and explores sensitive topics related to traumatic experiences.

Have you ever wondered how you’d respond in a dangerous situation? In this episode of The Harty Life, I share personal stories about being in the wrong place at the wrong time—from being followed multiple times to a school workshop at age 15 teaching us how to avoid sexual assault.

These experiences deeply shaped my understanding of personal safety and the importance of awareness.

We also explore the four stress responses—fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—and discuss why knowing your default response can be life-saving. Understanding your natural reaction could make all the difference when it matters most.

This is a raw, honest, and heartfelt conversation about:

- Personal safety and lessons learned.

- How trauma shapes awareness and resilience.

- Understanding your instinctive stress responses in critical moments.

This conversation isn’t just about survival—it’s about awareness, strength, and creating a conversation that empowers and educates.

Meet-cutes aren’t just the stuff of rom-coms. They happen in everyday life, and they can be just as magical, meaningful, and life-changing as they are in movies.

In this episode of The Harty Life, I explore the concept of meet-cutes—those spontaneous, unexpected connections—and why we should open ourselves up to them.

- How small, random moments of connection can bring joy and relief.

- The friendships, work relationships, and encounters that shaped parts of my journey.

- Why embracing these brief, unexpected meetings can lead to greater self-discovery and connection.

Whether you’ve experienced your own version of a meet-cute or are just curious about how these serendipitous moments can impact your life, this episode is for you.
