Dear Divorce Diary: A Fresh Approach To Healing Grief & Building A Life Of Confidence After Divorce
We are on a journey to get into the nitty gritty of divorce recovery and reveal why your divorce healing journey is still not working for you–even after you’ve tried therapy and read all the books.
Let's transform your pain into strength and take charge of your own narrative. Now’s the time we reclaim your healing journey–and why exactly we struggle to not only heal from past traumas but move beyond them to the ultimate goal: inner peace. That is real self-empowerment, and this is Dear Divorce Diary.
I’m Dawn Wiggins, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and EMDR specialist. I draw on decades of experience to help women navigate the emotional rollercoaster after ending a marriage. Using a little bit of science, a few alternative remedies and emotional release techniques, a whole lot of love, and zero BS, we step out of the victim mindset and into building a new life after divorce.
We emphasize nuance because overcoming challenges after divorce means questioning everything that got us here and using your divorce as a springboard to a better, more resilient (and certainly happier!) you.
On Tuesday, we have our listener segment called: "Getting Unstuck," where we anonymously unpack a difficult situation a listener is going through in their divorce healing journey.
And, on Thursday, we explore a "Hidden Healing Gem," which is a healing product or process we've tried and tested personally and/or professionally and are sharing our results and observations with you!
We cover essential life after divorce topics like grief, anxiety, codependency, loneliness, boundaries, nervous system health, attachment styles, the Law of Attraction, and homeopathy.
Join us twice a week as we go beyond talk therapy to process your grief, find the healing you crave, and rebuild your confidence.

Hi, love, let's do a quick EFT tapping tutorial, made just for you. So some things people ask when we are first doing EFT tapping Do I tap with two hands or just one? Doesn't matter, do whatever feels good to you. You'll see me switch back and forth, but just find what feels good. Do I have to say the words out loud or can I just follow along in my mind? Again, either works, do what have to say the words out loud or can I just follow along in my mind? Again, either works, do what feels best for you. I tend to just follow along in my mind.
Speaker 1:It feels like hard for me to say the words that the tapper is saying and finally know that the more the tapping video speaks to your specific issues, the more it's probably going to help you unlock the next level. Right, and that's what we're here to do is unlock all the levels to free you from kind of the trap that you've been struggling with about the negative beliefs you're holding about yourself and this divorce and all the things. So let's dig in. So we start with a karate chop on the back of the hand, completely owning every part of me, from my badassery to my dark spaces, even though I'm feeling really stuck right now, even though I'm feeling really stuck and pretty alone, I choose to really face all of myself, from my badassery to my dark places. Even though my heart is so broken and I can't stop thinking if I, what ifs, and what he's doing or not doing, even though the night feels so heavy and doing this all on my own feels overwhelming, and even though my heart is in pain like it's literally broken, I choose to own every bit of me, the parts of me that feel like a badass and the parts of me that feel so dark they'll never move. I can see that there are both parts.
Speaker 1:Sometimes, when I'm in the dark places, it's hard to remember the part of me that's a badass. In fact, sometimes at night, in the dark spaces, I completely forget that there is a part of me that's a badass. In those dark spaces I feel so small and so scared and so unsure of myself and so exhausted that I'm just not sure I can go on that. I'm just not sure I can go on. But then, inevitably, some bit of light breaks through and every now and then I accidentally feel a spark of joy. Sometimes it only lasts for a moment, sometimes it lasts for an hour. It's hard to hold on to these days Sparks of joy, sparks of badassery, but they do happen and I wish I could figure out how to have them happen more often. And I wish I could figure out how to have them happen more often, because letting go is one of the hardest parts.
Speaker 1:It feels really tricky to let go. It feels like if I let go of the marriage and my ex and the family we had and the dreams we had, that I'll be completely alone, completely alone, out of hope, without much of a plan. Just the thought of that is so overwhelming it drags me right back to the dark place. So how to let go? To find that feeling of badassery?
Speaker 1:When I find that feeling and I focus on it of all the moments in my life where I have felt like I really did it or even like I could do it. In those moments I was so clear that God had my back, or even like I could do it. In those moments I was so clear that God had my back and that I was tapped in, I was in touch with the things that make me feel like I matter, like I have a purpose, like I'm here for more. I have had those moments. They feel good in my mind, they feel good in my body. They bring a smile to my face.
Speaker 1:The moments where I'm sure that I'm enough. Gosh, they're hard to hold on to, but I'm committed to making space for them to come more often. I'm committed to making space for them to come more often. I'm committed to making space for believing consistently that I am a badass and that even badasses have dark spaces, because no one ever became a badass without working through a dark space, which means this dark space I'm in is growing me into a complete badass.
Speaker 1:And when I forget, I just have to come back to this video, or the people who remind me, or my gratitude list, or that song that really helps me feel free, or sit outside in the sun, where everything kind of feels possible, outside in the sun, where everything kind of feels possible. I just have to come back to the places where I'm more in touch with the truth of who I am, and not just the circumstances I'm going through right now. And not just the circumstances I'm going through right now, because the truth is I'm amazing and I'm lovable and I'm manifesting amazing things. The universe has my back and the path I'm walking right now it's temporary. I am made for greatness, and I can't wait to see what amazing things happen next, and so it is.
