  • Coercive Control in Family Law: What You’re Really Seeing in Your Clients

    Send us Fan Mail

    When a client walks into your office and seems confused, overwhelmed, or unable to make decisions, it’s easy to see the behaviour and miss what’s underneath it.

    In many family law cases, what looks like indecision or emotional instability is actually the result of coercive control.

    In this episode, I unpack what coercive control really is, how it presents in your clients, and why understanding it will completely change the way you work with certain divorce cases.

    Because this isn’t just about legal process.

    It’s about recognising the psychological impact your client is carrying.

    IN THIS EPISODE, I COVER:

    • What coercive control in relationships actually looks like 
    • Why coercive control is often missed in family law cases 
    • How coercive control impacts decision-making and behaviour 
    • Why your client may seem emotional, inconsistent, or “difficult” 
    • The link between coercive control and divorce complexity 
    • How some ex-partners use control through legal processes 
    • Why clients struggle with clarity, confidence, and communication 
    • What not to do when working with clients affected by coercive control 
    • What actually helps clients feel safe enough to make decisions 
    • How understanding coercive control makes your job easier as a family lawyer 

    WHO THIS EPISODE IS FOR

    This episode is for:

    • Family lawyers working with complex divorce cases 
    • Solicitors supporting clients in high-conflict separations 
    • Legal professionals noticing clients who struggle to decide or communicate 
    • Anyone working with women leaving emotionally abusive or controlling relationships 

    ABOUT LORENE

    I’m Lorene Roberts, Holistic Counsellor, Root-Cause Therapist, and Pattern Disrupter.

    I work with women, mostly 50+, who are navigating divorce, separation, and the aftermath of coercive and controlling relationships.

    My work focuses on helping them rebuild their confidence, reconnect with their voice, and make clear, grounded decisions about their future.

    WORK WITH ME

    If you’re a family lawyer working with clients affected by coercive control and want support alongside the legal process, I’d love to connect.

    When your client is emotionally supported:

    • They communicate more clearly 
    • They make decisions more confidently 
    • They engage more effectively in the process 

    Which makes your job easier too.

  • I Look Fine, But I’m Not , The Hidden Burnout of High-Functioning Women Living in Survival Mode

    Send us Fan Mail

    Most people are okay with their pain because it’s familiar.

    In this episode of Real Talk, Richard and I unpack what really sits underneath“I’m fine.”

    We talk about the gap between coping and actually living, how many high-functioning people build lives that look successful on the outside while quietly running on survival mode underneath.

    Here’s what happens:

    • We tolerate
     • We normalise
     • We distract
     • We hide
     • We ignore
     • We keep going

    Until one day… we can’t.

    That sudden anxiety at the supermarket.
     The tears that come out of nowhere.
     The burnout that hits behind closed doors.
     The moment you realise you’ve been lying to yourself for a very long time.

    We also discuss:

    • Why most people don’t ask for help until things become unbearable
    • The ways we cover up pain to keep functioning
    • Emotional isolation created by “tough love” conditioning
    • Financial anxiety and health neglect that builds in silence
    • Self-doubt that hides behind capability
    • What happens when your body forces you to stop
    • Why time doesn’t actually heal what hasn’t been processed
    • And how simply being seen can begin to shift everything

    This is not about fixing yourself.

    It’s about recognising when coping has quietly replaced living, and choosing something different.

    If you’re tired of saying “I’m fine” when you’re really not, this conversation is for you.

    Timestamps

    00:00 Introduction
     02:10 The difference between coping and living
     05:20 Why most people tolerate pain for years
     12:30 The hidden signs of chronic stress
     16:40 When anxiety suddenly appears
     20:15 Burnout behind closed doors
     24:00 Imposter syndrome in disguise
     28:10 Childhood conditioning and “tough love”
     34:20 Emotional isolation
     39:00 Why time doesn’t heal
     44:30 Being seen without needing solutions

     54:00 Accepting where you are

  • Empty Nest Identity Crisis: Why You Feel Lost After Your Kids Leave

    Send us Fan Mail

    You spent years being “Mum”.

    Caring, organising, supporting, worrying, and holding everything together.

    So when your kids grow up and leave home, something unexpected can happen.
     The house gets quieter… and inside, you feel lost.

    Not sad exactly.
     Not depressed.
     Just unsure of who you are now, and what your life is meant to look like next.

    In this episode, we talk about the empty nest identity crisis , the part no one really prepares you for.

    This isn’t just about missing your children.
     It’s about what happens when a role you’ve lived inside for decades quietly ends.

    If you’ve ever found yourself asking:

    • Who am I now my kids don’t need me in the same way?
    • Why do I feel empty when I thought I’d feel free?
    • Why does this feel bigger than “just an empty house”?

    You’re not alone, and nothing has gone wrong.

    In this episode, I gently walk you through:

    • Why feeling lost after your kids leave is a completely normal identity shift
    • How unconscious patterns, roles, and expectations shaped who you became
    • Why this stage of life can stir grief, confusion, and even guilt
    • A simple 3-step reset to help you reconnect with yourself again

    We also talk about how to create new purpose and direction, without pressure or overwhelm.

    This includes:

    • Exploring hobbies and interests you may have put aside
    • Creating new goals that are actually about you
    • Volunteering or contributing in ways that feel meaningful
    • Strengthening friendships, partnerships, and social connections
    • Knowing when to reach out for support, whether through trusted friends, groups, or professional guidance

    This isn’t about reinventing yourself overnight.
     And it’s not about filling your time just to stay busy.

    It’s about remembering who you are beneath the roles you’ve played.

    If you’re in the empty nest phase and quietly wondering “what now?”, this episode will help you feel seen, grounded, and reminded that this is not the end of your purpose , it’s the beginning of a new chapter.

    🌱 Join the Community

    If this episode resonates, I’d love to invite you to join my Skool community, a safe, supportive space for women navigating life transitions like the empty nest, separation, identity shifts, and personal growth.

    Inside the community, you’ll find:

    • Honest conversations
    • Practical tools and guidance

    • A place to reconnect with yourself, without judgement

    You don’t have to do this stage of life alone.

  • Breaking Old Patterns: Recognising Triggers and Rewriting Your Emotional History

    Send us Fan Mail

    Welcome back to WOW Love Light Inspire, the podcast where we explore healing, growth, and emotional freedom after life’s most challenging experiences—including narcissistic relationships, divorce, and family dynamics.

    In this episode, titled “Breaking Old Patterns: Recognising Triggers and Rewriting Your Emotional History,” I’m joined by Richard Morden as we dive deep into triggers—those emotional sparks that seem to hit out of nowhere, keeping us stuck in familiar, often painful patterns. We explore how triggers act as “hidden mirrors,” reflecting patterns inherited from our families, past experiences, and even generational behaviours.

    Together, we discuss:

    • How childhood experiences and family dynamics shape reactions, communication, and self-esteem in adulthood
    • The subtle “micro-patterns” that influence relationships, self-worth, and emotional wellbeing
    • Why familiar pain or chaos can feel comfortable, keeping us trapped in repetitive cycles
    • How media, TV, and cultural norms shape perceptions of love, gender roles, and relationships
    • Why healthy, stable partners can feel “boring” compared to familiar emotional intensity
    • How emotional chemistry and nervous system activation influence who we are drawn to

    Richard and I also share practical ways to recognise, process, and release triggers, helping you break free from destructive cycles without being stuck in guilt, shame, or past trauma. From self-awareness to accountability, this episode gives insights into stepping into conscious choice, emotional freedom, and empowered living.

    For ongoing guidance and support, you can join my Skool community, The Change Makers. In this group, you’ll connect with like-minded people, share experiences, ask questions, and get answers from both me and other members committed to breaking old patterns, healing deeply, and creating a life that truly fits.

    Triggers aren’t obstacles—they’re opportunities to uncover hidden patterns, reclaim your power, and transform your life from the inside out.

  • The Gift of Triggers: How to Heal Without Reliving Trauma

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode of Real Talk: Divorce, Life & Everything In-Between, Lorene Roberts and Richard Morton dive into the raw reality of triggers, trauma, and healing.

    Lorene shares a recent experience of being re-traumatised during training and walks through the exact steps she used to get herself out of a spiral — from acknowledging the inner child, to breathing, to using music to shift her state in just 30 minutes. Richard adds powerful self-regulation techniques from Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), tapping, and simple nervous system holds that anyone can practise.

    Together, they unpack why triggers are actually gifts, how to set boundaries without guilt, and why acceptance, acknowledgement, and gratitude are the keys to lasting emotional freedom.

    If you’ve ever felt stuck in the past, overwhelmed by triggers, or unsure how to reset your mind and body, this conversation gives you the tools you need to move forward.

    • Lorene’s experience of being re-traumatised in a training exercise
    • How she stopped a spiral and reset her nervous system in under 30 minutes
    • Step-by-step: Acknowledge, Breathe, Music, Release, Gratitude
    • Richard’s practical holds and EFT techniques for calming the nervous system
    • Why saying “no” is actually saying “yes” to yourself
    • The power of acceptance, acknowledgement, and gratitude in healing
    • How to see triggers as gifts that guide transformation
    • Simple exercises you can do anywhere — even in your car or at your desk
    • Why self-nurturing is the foundation of resilience
    • Final takeaway: triggers are not setbacks, they’re stepping stones to empowerment

  • Create the Life You Want - Breaking the patterns to create the future you

    Send us Fan Mail

    Create the Life You Want

    Breaking the patterns to create the future you now

     In this episode we dive into how to reprogram your mind so you can create the life you truly want. We all have parts of our lives that are flowing beautifully, and other areas that feel stuck, frustrating or unfulfilled. This conversation is about learning how to shift those stuck places by breaking old patterns and teaching your mind and body a new way forward.

    You will discover:

    • why familiar emotions like fear, guilt and worry can hold you back without you even realising it
    • how unconscious thoughts play on autopilot, and how to become aware of them so you can choose differently
    • the science made simple, how your brain rewires itself, why your body clings to old emotions, and how strong feelings shape your memories
    • why your subconscious doesn’t know the difference between vividly imagined events and reality, and how you can use that to your advantage
    • a step by step practice called Feeling the Future Now, which helps you embody the emotions of your desired future so your brain and body start to believe it is already true
    • five small daily actions that strengthen new patterns until they become your normal way of being

    This isn’t about pretending everything is perfect or forcing positivity. It’s about practical, real tools that help you create change, one choice at a time. Whether you want to improve your relationships, your health, your career or your confidence, the principles we explore here can help you manifest a life that feels more aligned with your deepest desires.

    Who is Lorene Roberts?
    I’m a Holistic Counsellor, Root Cause Therapist and author, passionate about helping people break free from old patterns and create lives they truly love. With a background in counselling, coaching and holistic healing, I combine practical tools with deep inner work so change becomes not only possible but lasting.

  • Narcissistic Abuse Fallout: The Damage You Didn’t See Coming

    Send us Fan Mail

    Even 15 years after escaping an emotionally and sexually abusive relationship, I woke up in the middle of the night reliving it all over again. In this episode, Richard and I dive into the raw reality of trauma resurfacing, when the past sneaks into your present and takes your breath away.  This is the real, raw side of recovery we don’t talk about enough.

    I share with Richard what happened after I woke up reliving my past, the emotional and sexual abuse that shaped me, and how I handled it through journaling, visualisation, affirmations, and self-compassion.  We talk about how healing isn’t a straight line, and how sometimes just accepting what comes up is the most powerful thing we can do.

    This episode is a reminder that healing doesn’t mean forgetting, it means being kind to yourself when the pain returns. I also speak to why this work is so close to my heart, and why I continue to support others walking the same difficult road.

    We unpack:

    • Why trauma resurfaces even when you feel “healed”
    • How emotional flashbacks are your body’s way of asking for care, not punishment
    • What it means to hold space for your own healing
    • The difference between remembering and re-traumatising
    • How acceptance and choice are core to every step of healing

    🎧 If you’ve ever thought, “Why am I still struggling with this?”, this one’s for you.

  • Narcissistic Abuse Tactics: How They Manipulate & Control You

    Send us Fan Mail

    Have you ever found yourself walking on eggshells, second-guessing your every move — and wondering when your relationship became a psychological minefield?
    You’re not imagining it. This is what control looks like in a narcissistic relationship — and in this episode of Real Talk: Divorce, Life & Everything In-Between, we’re pulling back the curtain on the tactics that trap you.

    Join Lorene and Richard as they dive into the twisted web of narcissistic control and emotional abuse. Together, we’ll name the games narcissists play to keep you off-balance, small, and dependent — so you can finally spot them, stop them, and heal from them.

    In this episode, we unpack:

    • 🔥 Love bombing — how they sweep you off your feet and gather ammo from day one.
    • 🧠 Gaslighting — when your reality is constantly questioned, and you begin to doubt your own sanity.
    • 🎭 Smear campaigns — how they quietly dismantle your reputation while playing the victim.
    • 🪤 Trauma bonding & future faking — the promises, the chaos, the emotional rollercoaster that keeps you stuck.
    • 🕵️‍♂️ Triangulation — how they use others to manipulate and isolate you.
    • 💔 Control through guilt, shame, and fear — and why it works so damn well.

    If you’ve ever thought, “Is it me? Am I the problem?” — this episode is for you. We’re here to remind you:
     👉 You’re not too sensitive.
     👉 You’re not overthinking.
     👉 You’ve been conditioned to doubt yourself.

    And now? You get to take your power back.

    🎧 Tune in for unfiltered conversation, lived experience, and expert insight — to help you reclaim your voice, your sanity, and your life.

  • Narcissistic Abuse Fallout: Why the Pain Doesn’t End When They Leave

    Send us Fan Mail

    Episode Title: Narcissistic Abuse Fallout: Why the Pain Doesn’t End When They Leave

    You’ve left the narcissist. You thought the hard part was over. But now… the real fallout begins.

    In this episode of Real Talk: Divorce, Life & Everything In-Between, Lorene Roberts and Richard Morden dive into what really happens after a toxic relationship ends — and why the emotional wounds can linger long after your ex is out of your life.

    Leaving a narcissist isn’t the end of the story — it’s the beginning of recovery. The gaslighting, emotional manipulation, love bombing, and control tactics may be behind you, but the damage to your self-worth, identity, and nervous system can stick around like an invisible weight.

    We break down:

    • Why survivors often feel worse after they leave
    • The identity crisis that follows emotional abuse
    • Why guilt, shame, and confusion are so common — even when you know they were toxic
    • How the narcissist’s voice becomes your own inner critic
    • The physical effects of long-term emotional abuse (fatigue, anxiety, insomnia, hypervigilance)
    • What decision paralysis and emotional numbness really mean
    • The importance of reclaiming your voice — and how to do it gently, one step at a time

    This is not just an intellectual conversation — it’s raw, real, and validating. Lorene and Richard don’t just speak from professional knowledge, but from personal experience and deep compassion.

    Whether you're just starting your healing journey or years out and still struggling with the impact, this episode will help you understand that you’re not crazy — you're recovering. And you're not alone.

    🎧 Tune in if:

    • You’ve left a narcissist but still feel stuck, confused, or ashamed
    • You’re dealing with the aftershock of emotional abuse
    • You want to understand why it’s so hard to trust yourself again
    • You’re ready to take your first steps toward freedom and emotional clarity

  • You Left the Narcissist… Now What?

    Send us Fan Mail

    You finally left. The narcissist is no longer in your life — but the emotional chaos still is.

    In this powerful episode of Real Talk: Divorce, Life & Everything In-Between, hosts Lorene Roberts (Holistic Counsellor & Root-Cause Therapist) and Richard Morden (Divorce Coach & Emotional Resilience Practitioner) dive deep into the often-overlooked fallout of narcissistic relationships — what happens after the breakup, when the gaslighting stops but the self-doubt lingers.

    Because here’s the truth: just leaving isn’t the finish line.
     It’s the start of your healing journey — and it can feel overwhelming, lonely, and confusing.

    🎙️ In this episode, we talk about:

    • What really happens after the narcissist is gone (hint: the damage doesn’t just disappear)
    • Why so many survivors struggle with identity loss, emotional flashbacks, and self-blame
    • How narcissists condition you to doubt yourself — even long after they’re out of your life
    • The practical and emotional fallout: finances, friendships, family fractures
    • The grief no one talks about — including mourning the person you thought they were
    • And why it’s totally normal to feel broken — but you’re not

    🛠️ We also explore solutions like:

    • How to gently reclaim your sense of self
    • Using therapy, journaling, and trauma-informed tools to reconnect with your worth
    • Ways to rebuild trust — in yourself and in others
    • Simple steps for nervous system regulation when your world feels unsafe
    • The importance of community, boundaries, and compassion during recovery

    💬 Real Talk Moments:  Lorene and Richard share personal experiences, mistakes made, lessons learned, and the things they wish someone had told them during the aftermath. It’s raw, real, and filled with hard-earned wisdom.

    If you’ve ever asked yourself: “Why do I still feel like this?”
    This episode is for you.

    You’re not alone.
     You’re not crazy.
     And you’re not broken — you’re healing.
