In today’s episode of The Heart & Hustle Podcast, we welcome back the powerhouse herself — Toni Collier! If you’ve ever felt like you’re too broken, too betrayed, or too worn down to keep going, this conversation will remind you that you’re not alone. Toni opens up about one of the hardest seasons of her life and how it inspired her brand-new book, “Don’t Try This Alone”. (Link Below). She shares raw, personal stories of heartbreak, healing, and the power of leaning on others when you want to hide.
From building a “confessional community” that became her lifeline, to learning how to be brave enough to send a single vulnerable text, Toni reminds us that healing doesn’t mean living pain-free — it means increasing your capacity to hold pain while finding hope in the middle of it. Together, we dive into what true community looks like, how to rebuild trust after betrayal, and why bravery often looks like simply saying, “I need help.”
Whether you’re in a valley right now or preparing for the storms that will inevitably come, Toni’s wisdom and humor will leave you encouraged, empowered, and ready to believe in the goodness of people again.
