What does decluttering a drawer full of hoodies have to do with healing after betrayal and divorce? More than you might think.

In this episode, I share how a simple project of cleaning out my dresser drawers turned into a powerful reminder of the healing journey. Just like those drawers, our inner world can get overstuffed with old roles, relationships, patterns, and guilt that no longer fit who we are today.

Together we’ll explore five healing shifts that can help you rebuild after betrayal and a life-saving divorce:

  • Letting go of guilt – releasing what no longer serves you without shame.

  • Intentional choosing – giving everything in your life a fresh “yes” instead of defaulting to obligation.

  • Private wins – why the most important victories in healing are often unseen by others.

  • Making space for what’s next – learning to tolerate the discomfort of empty space instead of rushing to fill it.

  • Choosing what goes back in – filling your “drawers” with peace, boundaries, values, and relationships that truly fit.

If you’ve ever felt weighed down by old patterns, caught in guilt for letting go, or unsure what should come next in your healing journey, this episode will help you find clarity, courage, and self-trust.

✨ Tune in to discover how decluttering your drawers can become a metaphor for decluttering your life after betrayal and divorce.
