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

Ep. 278 Why You Still Text Back: Healing the Trauma Bond After Divorce.


Listen Later

You could be a therapist, a coach, or the friend who swears she knows better—and still fall for an avoidant man’s games after divorce.

In this Dear Divorce Diary Premium episode, Dawn, Joy, and Tiffini get brutally honest (and hilariously real) about the ridiculous ways smart women stay hooked—the late-night texts, the lies we half-believed, the crumbs we treated like connection.

Then they flip the script with five raw, transformative questions that help you break the trauma bond for good and reclaim your nervous system.

This conversation blends cringe, comedy, and clarity—and by the end, you’ll never look at that buzz of his name lighting up your phone the same way again.

In this episode:
• Why even strong, self-aware women ignore red flags after divorce (hint: it’s not stupidity—it’s nervous-system survival)
• How avoidant partners keep you emotionally addicted and how to spot the pattern in real time
• A simple somatic tool (ankle rolls + humming) to calm your body when you’re tempted to text back
• Five journal-ready questions that change everything about how you respond to those “Hey stranger” messages

Listen for:

  •  The Confession: Real stories that make you say, “Oh my God, me too.”
  •  The Reveal: Why your body mistakes anxiety for attraction—and how to break that cycle.
  •  The Breakthrough: What it takes to stop letting him control your nervous system.
