Join me on "Happily, even After" as we unravel the profound impact of abandonment trauma, particularly in the painful aftermath of betrayal and divorce. As a trauma-informed life coach, I guide you through embracing and processing these intense emotions rather than burying them.

In this episode, I promise you insights into how abandonment issues can impact your ability to form and maintain deep emotional connections. Let's talk about the self-sabotaging behaviors that might arise from these fears, such as pushing loved ones away or becoming overly dependent in search of reassurance. We'll tackle the roots of low self-esteem and chronic self-doubt linked to past abandonment and how they can lead to trust issues and emotional isolation. You'll leave this episode with a guide to breaking these unhealthy patterns and finding strength and fulfillment in your relationships and personal journey.

What happens when life as you know it goes up in flames, leaving you with nothing but memories and the daunting task of starting over? Join me, Jen, as I recount the story of my childhood friend who lost her home to the recent LA fires, a tragedy that echoes my own experience of losing a business to a fire in 2012. These events reveal the immense emotional and logistical challenges of rebuilding and offer lessons in compassion and resilience. We'll explore the deeply personal side of loss and how letting go of material possessions can empower us to find strength and community support in the aftermath.

Throughout this episode, we'll draw parallels between rebuilding a home and mending a relationship after betrayal, discussing the importance of empathy and security for those who have faced similar hardships. By sharing stories of individuals who supported their loved ones despite adversity, I hope to inspire self-reflection on the role we play in the dreams and aspirations of those we care about.
