Dear Divorce Diary: A Fresh Approach To Healing Grief & Building A Life Of Confidence After Divorce

Ep. 272. The Secrets Divorced Moms Carry: Shame, Silence, and the Search for Freedom


Listen Later

Divorced moms carry secrets no one talks about.
The things their ex did behind closed doors.
The moments with their kids they can’t admit out loud — not because they’re weak, but because protecting their children comes first.

In this premium episode of Dear Divorce Diary, we crack open the hidden stories that weigh the heaviest:

  • His secrets you’ve protected — and the resentment that builds from carrying them.
  • Your own secrets — the rage, the shame, the things you fear make you a “bad mom.”
  • The deeper secret about secrets — why it’s rarely the story itself that keeps you stuck, but the shame welded to it.

What if true freedom isn’t about being believed… but about finding peace without anyone else’s validation?
 Let’s dig in.

If you’ve felt secretly bound to your grief, know this: you’re not broken, you’re caught in a pattern that can shift. Take the Divorce Recovery Nervous System Quiz to discover how your nervous system type feeds the loop — and get tailored practices, resources, and episodes that help you move forward with confidence.
