How often have we been allowed to really speak about our most painful heartbreak in the open to other humans? Rarely ever. It's still considered taboo to be open and honest about how much we are truly hurting during our breakup or divorce. It's seen as being "too emotional" or "too open" in a lot of settings. Inside the Braveheart Community, it's normal. It's freeing. It's safe and it's ok.

In today's episode learn about what it's like to be a part of the braveheart community while healing from heartbreak from two Bravehearts who got the support they didn't know they needed.
