Episode Elisabetta Caraccia: Loving And Losing My Husband Ray Stevenson | Her Side of the Stories Cover

Beschreibung

In May 2023, Elisabetta walked into a hospital room in Ischia. Her husband, the actor Ray Stevenson, looked up at her, said one word, and was gone.The word was “Finalmente.” Finally. In this episode, she sits with me and tells me about that day. About telling their boys. About the mediums she called from the plane on the way to her son in England and the poem that arrived from ten different people, in ten different countries, in the days that followed.  She tells me about keeping him alive inside her family every single day. Not as a memory, but as a presence still beside her. And about the film festival she built from the worst loss of her life — the Ray of Light Awards. Her love letter to him, and to every story that uplifts the human spirit. At the end of our conversation, I asked her one question. If she could live this life all over again, knowing exactly how much it would cost her — would she still choose this love? She didn’t pause for a second, 100% she said. This touching but yet beautiful conversation is for anyone who has ever lost someone they didn’t think they could survive losing. Her name is Elisabetta Caraccia and this is Her Side of the Stories. ABOUT ELISABETTA Elisabetta Caraccia is a philanthropist, a mother of three, and the founder of the Ray of Light Awards — a film festival in Ibiza honouring storytelling rooted in human experience, connection and meaning. She is also the owner of Boutique Hostal Salinas in Ibiza, where she lives with her three sons. The Ray of Light Awards is her love letter to her late husband, the actor Ray Stevenson — and to every story that uplifts the human spirit.   Ray of Light Awards: https://rayoflightawards.com (26–31 May 2026 — Ibiza, Spain) Boutique Hostal Salinas: https://www.boutiquehostalsalinas.com [https://www.boutiquehostalsalinas.com/]   FOLLOW HER SIDE OF THE STORIES YouTube: https://youtube.com/@hersideofthestoriesofficial Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0NdDte4w6fgcuZZwZH1rpi?si=5u1ARRWURf2ynKa0n3Fe8g Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/her-side-of-the-stories/id1890695561 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hersideofthestories #raystevenson #grief #starwars #loss #hersideofthestories

Liv Nervo: I Thought I Found Safety. I Didn't Know I Was Living a Lie | Her Side of the Stories

Millions know Liv Nervo as one half of the Grammy Award-winning DJ and songwriting duo NERVO. Few know that while she was six months pregnant, she discovered the man she thought she was building a family with already had another family. This conversation isn't about fame. It's about betrayal, identity, resilience, and learning to trust yourself again. Liv Nervo is one half of the Grammy Award-winning Australian DJ, producer and songwriting duo NERVO, which she formed with her twin sister Mim. Before becoming one of the world's most recognised female DJ duos, NERVO wrote and produced music for artists including David Guetta, Kelly Rowland, Kylie Minogue, Kesha, The Pussycat Dolls, Steve Aoki, Afrojack and Miley Cyrus. In this deeply honest conversation, Liv shares what happened after her world fell apart. She opens up about betrayal, depression, motherhood, healing and the impossible task of rebuilding her life while becoming a mother for the first time. Together, we explore why so many of us mistake familiarity for safety, how easy it is to ignore our intuition when we desperately want something to be true, and what it really takes to find yourself again after everything you believed had fallen apart. — FOLLOW LIV NERVO Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nervomusic/?hl=en [https://www.instagram.com/nervomusic/?hl=en] FOLLOW HER SIDE OF THE STORIES YouTube: https://youtube.com/@hersideofthestoriesofficial [https://youtube.com/@hersideofthestoriesofficial] Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hersideofthestories [https://www.instagram.com/hersideofthestories] Website: www.hersideofthestories.com [http://www.hersideofthestories.com/] FOLLOW ASAL ZARA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/asal_zara [https://www.instagram.com/asal_zara]__ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/asal-zara-aa845766 [https://www.linkedin.com/in/asal-zara-aa845766] Her Voice.

Episode I Thought I Had Healed. Then Life Tested Everything I Believed | Lauren Burton | Her Side Of The Stories Cover

I Thought I Had Healed. Then Life Tested Everything I Believed | Lauren Burton | Her Side Of The Stories

Some of the roles we carry through life started so early that we don’t even question them anymore. We just think, this is who I am. I’m the calm one, the strong one, the one who keeps everything together. But sometimes that isn’t really who we are. It is who we learned to become. In this episode, I sit with Lauren Burton, an internationally accredited executive coach, business owner and mother, to talk about the patterns that begin in childhood and quietly follow us into adult life. We speak about people-pleasing, abandonment, numbing, overworking, the need to feel seen, and what happens when life tests everything you thought you understood about healing. Lauren also speaks about losing her daughter Jasmine during childbirth, and the long process of learning how love, grief and joy can all exist at the same time. This is a conversation about survival, identity and finding your way back to yourself.

Episode I Learned To Read The Unseen | But I Still Struggled To Be Seen | Psychic Elaine Mary Collins | Her Side of the Stories Cover

I Learned To Read The Unseen | But I Still Struggled To Be Seen | Psychic Elaine Mary Collins | Her Side of the Stories

She could sense what others couldn’t and help thousands of people find answers. But behind the psychic gift was a woman who spent years hiding and struggling to see her own worth. In this episode, Asal sits with Elaine Mary Collins — an intuitive reader who began psychic development at fourteen and received her first tarot deck from her mother at fifteen. Elaine opens up about growing up around addiction, violence and instability, and how those early experiences shaped both her sensitivity and the protective patterns she carried into adulthood. They explore intuition, tarot, mediumship, spiritualism, self-worth, people-pleasing, emotional eating, boundaries and the responsibility that comes with guiding people when they are vulnerable. Elaine also explains what she senses during a reading, whether psychics are ever wrong, why some people want comfort more than truth and whether everyone has the ability to develop their intuition. At the end of the conversation, Asal experiences her first taste of a tarot reading — opening an unexpectedly personal conversation about adventure, betrayal, abandonment and the things we think we have already healed. Elaine Mary Collins is one of the world’s most trusted psychics, with clients ranging from celebrities and CEOs to politicians. For nearly 50 years, people have turned to her for guidance, clarity and insight. Her Voice. Her Truth. Her Side.

Episode The Things She Couldn't Remember Changed Her Entire Life | Katelyn Means | Her Side of the Stories Cover

The Things She Couldn't Remember Changed Her Entire Life | Katelyn Means | Her Side of the Stories

What happens when parts of your childhood disappear from memory, but continue shaping your life anyway? In this episode, Dr. Katelyn Means shares her deeply personal journey through trauma, shame, survival, healing, and recovery. As a child, Katelyn experienced things no child should have to navigate. What followed were years of trying to make sense of feelings she couldn't fully explain, relationships that repeated familiar pain, struggles with anorexia, medication, perfectionism, and the belief that something was fundamentally wrong with her. Together, we explore the relationship with her father, the memories she carries, the ones she doesn't, and the impact those experiences had on every chapter that followed. We talk about shame, about survival mode, about trying to control a body when life feels uncontrollable, about why we repeat patterns and about the long journey from simply surviving to finally feeling safe. One thing she said stayed with me long after the cameras stopped rolling: "The absence of memory doesn't mean the absence of experience." This is a conversation about trauma. But even more than that, it's a conversation about hope. Her Voice. Her Truth. Her Side. ABOUT DR. KATELYN MEANS Dr. Katelyn Means is the creator of The Euphoria Effect, a framework exploring the connection between childhood experiences, trauma, healing, and human potential.
