In this episode, I’m joined by Dr Ateh Jewel—award-winning journalist, beauty entrepreneur, and broadcaster—to explore what it really takes to rebuild your life after divorce.

Ateh shares her deeply personal journey from a long-term marriage into a new chapter of self-discovery, confidence, and independence. We talk about identity shifts, motherhood, dating in midlife, and the power of finally choosing yourself.

We also explore the realities of ADHD, emotional resilience, and how to move from self-doubt to self-trust.
