From losing her mum in her early twenties to surviving an abusive relationship, Zoe opens up about the darkest chapter of her life—and how she slowly, painfully rebuilt something real in its aftermath.They talk about grief, betrayal, motherhood, and what it means to truly heal—not just survive, but live in a way that feels honest, connected, and on your own terms. Zoe shares what she’s learned through therapy, spiritual growth, and the deep work of self-reflection, and how those lessons now shape her parenting, her marriage to Benji Marshall, and her relationship with herself.Timestamps:01:30 – The moment everything changed06:40 – “I was the perfect candidate for someone dangerous”11:15 – The abuse, the betrayal, and the fallout16:50 – “The rock bottom was wanting to die”20:00 – Healing, therapy, and radical self-acceptance25:00 – Parenting, presence, and protecting her energy32:00 – Co-creating your life and letting go of the plan36:00 – Her relationship with Benji and how they’ve evolved44:00 – Sex, sleep, and separate bathrooms49:00 – The power of solitude and rebuilding your life from scratch54:00 – Final thoughts: staying grounded, staying trueFollow Jono & Amy:instagram.com/jonocastanoacero instagram.com/amycastano Stay in the loop with Curious Follow Zoe Marshall: InstagrammembershipBook AriiseZoe's membership link https://www.ariise.com.au/join-ariisePurchase Zoe's brand new book Ariise here:https://www.bigw.com.au/product/ariise-by-zoe-marshall/p/6016072?srsltid=AfmBOorjoAUOnnwK5qPvNDW5elIxpRu0wOfyRpdrmQlaLXPyN-gkYKAxMedia:curious.mediainstagram.com/curiousmediahq
