Becoming You Again

Are you seeking comfort, insight, and empowerment from someone who's been in your shoes? You've come to the right place. Join me as I sit down with the incredibly resilient Amanda Davis, a woman who's navigated the turbulent waters of divorce not once, but twice. She opens up about her experiences, the lessons she's learned, and the wisdom she's gathered along the way, making this a must-listen for anyone going through a similar journey.

Love, betrayal, divorce - these are heavy words that carry a lot of pain and heartache. Amanda shares intimate details about her journey, from the shock of being blindsided by an affair, to the struggle of learning self-care, and the importance of trusting your intuition. There's a raw honesty in her story that's both comforting and empowering. It's a reminder that it's okay to hurt, it's okay to heal, and it's more than okay to step into your power and define the narrative for yourself.

But, it's not all about the struggle. In the final segment, Amanda shares a treasure trove of tips for life after divorce. They may seem simple - like drinking more water or taking morning walks - but they can be life-altering in their impact. Amanda's conversation is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. No matter how bleak the situation may seem, you're not alone in your journey. Tune in for an episode filled with compassion, understanding, and the shared wisdom of women who've come out the other side stronger and more empowered.

What do trauma, religion and the system of patriarchy have in common? You'll find out in this episode.  Join me as I sit down with Lindsay Poelman, my friend, and fellow coach who helps others become trauma-informed. You'll hear Lindsay's story of checking the societal boxes of education, marriage, family, and a good job that supposedly lead to security and a happy life and then through her journey from her husband's mental breakdown to her process of self-recovery, healing, and intuitive reclamation. She imparts how a trauma-informed approach has helped her reconnect with herself and navigate the complexities of life.

Throughout our conversation we touch on trauma and grief enveloped in the lost expectation of what life should be. We also dive into high-demand/high-control religions and the system of patriarchy within those cultures touching on the internalized oppression and the revolutionary act of trusting our own knowing.

We go from discussing the importance of compassionate self-recognition to the dangers of self-gaslighting and self-denial.  We explore the importance of creating a safe space for ourselves and others. The episode closes on a note of releasing generational trauma and embracing self-acceptance and healing. Don't miss this insightful episode where Lindsay shares her incredible journey and helps us understand the importance of being trauma-informed.

In this episode I'm answering three listener questions and offering my best divorce advice from a coaching perspective.

First, you'll hear from Anonymous who is struggling in her 20+ year marriage. She has been contemplating divorce and has been taking time to reflect over her marriage and feels as though she may finally be seeing things for what they are, instead of possibly ignoring red flags that have been there along way; things like the silent treatment and public shaming. Listen in as I guide this woman on how to better tap into her inner knowing so she can make the best possible decision for herself.

Second, you'll hear Jackie who wants to know if she should try to win back her ex-husband of three years or if she should continue to wade through the dating pool of misery all so she doesn't have to live a life of being alone. Listen in as I help Jackie question what she truly wants and how to think about herself in a more whole, complete way.

And lastly, you'll hear another anonymous woman who is struggling to know what she wants out of life to feel productive now that all her kids are grown and out of the house. Don't miss my advice on getting to know herself and opening up to more fun in her life.

Can feelings of envy uncover our deepest needs? That's the question that set me on an unexpected journey, revealing a longing for deeper connections with other women. In this episode I share my personal exploration into the realms of envy and jealousy  and I unravel how we often misinterpret our feelings, and how acknowledging our true desires can actually help us grow.

We often associate selfishness with guilt and unworthiness, especially when it comes to women prioritizing their needs. But what if we reframe this perspective? Imagine if recognizing and acting on our heart's desires was seen as a gift, not just for ourselves, but for others too. We have the potential to inspire those around us and break free from societal expectations. Tune in and let's redefine the narrative around envy, jealousy, and selfishness together.

Domestic abuse isn't going away any time soon. In fact, in Utah, where I live, the first half of this year it was on the rise compared to previous years. Hearing the alarming numbers of domestic abuse, I realized I haven't done much to possibly help. That's where this episode comes in; recognizing abuse in your relationship.

Join me in this informative episode where I define and identify six different types of abuse, what they are and what they can look like. I'll also provide common ways someone may downplay the actions and behaviors of an abusive partner.

Whether this episode opens your eyes to the abuse, you've recognized it for a while, or maybe you're just not sure - help is available. This conversation is crucial, and my goal is to approach it with utmost care and sensitivity, offering awareness, resources and support to those who may be in need. 

The Utah Domestic Violence Coalition operates a confidential statewide, 24-hour domestic abuse hotline at 1-800-897-LINK (5465).

Have you ever considered what the Barbie movie can teach divorced women about self-discovery, self-love, and self-worth?  I this episode I'm sharing insights inspired by Barbie's movie, where the iconic doll's journey mimics the self-discovery encountered by many women post-divorce. Through the power of metaphor, I'll delve into Ken's struggle to find his identity outside of his relationship with Barbie, shining a light on the parallel journey women often face when navigating life after divorce.

In a world dominated by patriarchal systems, I question its profound influence on our thoughts, actions, and self-perception. I confront the often unchallenged norms and double standards that society imposes on us, drawing powerful examples from the Barbie movie and my own life.

Emphasizing the importance of self-empowerment, I explore stepping into our power and dismissing the fear of public opinion (FOPO). I talk about the  significance of embracing our identity, practicing self-care, and nurturing self-love as you move closer to living a life of intention and possibility after divorce.

As divorced women it can be challenging to find any kind of respite during our day, even if it's just for a few minutes. Well this doesn't have to be your experience any longer. Join me while I interview my guest, Jake Eagle - co-author of the book, The Power of Awe. Jake is a seasoned psychotherapist, mindfulness instructor, and fellow member trainer of the International Association of NeuroLinguistic Programming who stumbled upon an incredible discovery of The Power of Awe.

Listen in as we talk in depth about the capacity of awe to reset our nervous system, help us embrace the beauty and positivity of our world, even in the face of adversity and even help reduce inflammation. Jake will reveal his research findings and the interesting concept of micro-meditations (similar to micro-dosing but with awe), which has been proven to yield superior results than the traditional 10-minute meditation.

Jake and I also explore some how to make our relationships easier. We discuss the intriguing concept of the 'redo', a practice that encourages us to take responsibility for our own behavior and make amends promptly, fostering healthier connections.

I promise you The Power of Awe is not just another self-help theory but a practical strategy backed by research and personal experience that can change your life and relationships. Tune in and discover how The Power of Awe can support your journey to becoming a better, healthier, and happier divorced woman, 10 seconds at a time.
