The Road Back Podcast: Conversations to Guide You Home
Life has a way of pulling us off course — trauma, expectations, burnout, and seasons where we forget who we are and why we're here. The Road Back Podcast is a podcast for people in seasons of transition—returning to their bodies, their voices, their dreams, and their belovedness.
Join hosts Melissa Runacres & Desiree Amariei, two trauma-informed emotional health coaches, as they share candid conversations about identity, faith, emotional wellbeing, personal growth, and even tools for navigating finances.
Expect practical wisdom, heartfelt storytelling, steps for rebuilding your life and reimagining your future, and moments that feel like sitting with friends over coffee—because you're not meant to walk this road alone.
New episodes every Wednesday starting August 27, 2025. Subscribe so you never miss your next step forward.

Join Mel and Dez for a heartfelt conversation in Episode 2 of The Road Back: Conversations to Guide You Home.
This week, we dive into what's in a name—why this title for a podcast?
We also discuss what "the road back" means to us—exploring the messy collisions where faith, identity, and emotional wounds intertwine. Pulling from our personal stories, we unpack moments of feeling far from ourselves, the divine breadcrumbs that guided us home, and how our understanding of God has shifted through it all.
If you’re navigating disorientation or searching for hope, this episode is a tender reminder: you’re not alone, and there’s a path back to your truest self.
Tune in for raw reflections, honesty, and permission to be exactly where you are on your own path.
Let's stay connected!
