"I would close my laptop on a Monday evening and think... what do I do now?"
That empty feeling when the kids leave for their dad's? Sam knows it intimately. And her solution for far too long was simple: beer, Netflix, repeat.
Welcome back to Divorce Awakening.
This week, Delia and Sam get real about the bit nobody warns you about β the messy, lonely, "I've made the decision but I have NO idea how to actually live now" middle.
In this episode, you'll hear:
π₯ Sam's brutally honest take on 50/50 co-parenting weeks β and the silence that hits when the kids walk out the door
π₯ The unglamorous truth about numbing out β and why there's zero judgment here
π₯ Why guilt might be the single biggest waste of time for divorced mums β and the difference between real guilt and just... self-flagellation with a saucepan
π₯ The "vibration" talk: how living in guilt, fear and anxiety actually shapes every decision you make (and not for the better)
π₯ How being triggered by someone is actually information about YOU
π₯ The honest conversation about jumping into a new relationship vs. doing the work β no judgment, but one big question to ask yourself
This episode is for anyone who's ever felt like they're just going through the motions β surviving the week, numbing the silence, and wondering if there's another way to live.
Spoiler: there is. And it starts with one small choice.
Listen now β and ask yourself: what's your version of the Monday beer?
