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.

Speaker 1:One of the things that keeps me up at night is watching women borrow or rent their self-worth from false institutions, and the reason that I am so passionate about this podcast and the work that I do behind the scenes in therapy, in healing trauma, in practicing homeopathy and various quantum techniques, is because, over and over again, I see people, but especially women, place their faith and place their trust in false institutions and then feel helpless and not peaceful and out of control when those false institutions crumble. And so what I mean by that is when I was getting divorced and I went to my therapist and I said, well, thank God, you're in charge now. That felt good for a period of time, because I knew I couldn't trust the decisions that I was making or had made up to that point. But my mission from that moment to this moment has been to make decisions, to learn how to make decisions that are so fiercely grounded in greater truths that any emotional storm that hits me is not going to knock me off course. But in order to have that kind of grounded peace, I had to learn how to trust myself and my decisions so fiercely that when I feel neurotic self-doubt, I can get grounded in something deeper. And the only way I did that was by becoming so intimately aware of what my God-given gifts, strengths and callings are and so intimately aware of God's existence in my life and so intimate in my relationship with that higher power that when I make decisions, when I take next steps, that whether I'm using muscle testing or homeopathy or hiring a coach or making a decision about which podcast episode to release next, I know that it's coming from a place of deep truth and intimacy and partnership with a higher power.
Speaker 1:When we, as women, put our faith and trust in things like marriage or people or beauty standards or the beauty industry or gurus, very often what we're doing is abdicating our own personal power and intuition and capacity to choose, and I don't want this podcast and this channel to be another false institution. I'm going to teach you so many things about how to own your worth, but I want you to always test the resources, the tools that I offer you. I want you to test them against the truth. I want you to be able to hear feedback and sort out if it's true or if it's just another person trying to sell you something. Now how can I say that when I sell things? Because the difference is is I want you to know whether or not something is right for you. I want you to know what alignment looks like for your unique design. Our designs are different, and alignment for you is going to be different than alignment for me. Now I have a whole bunch of tools and awarenesses to teach you so that you can sift and sort through them so that you find alignment, but not one size fits all solutions. That's not going to facilitate alignment for every woman, and so what I offer you is a path to your own alignment within yourself and within your higher power, not just allegiance to another false institution over here. Because don't get me wrong I love it when people do what I tell them to do. You know what I mean. Like no, you don't understand. You just need homeopathy and that's true, right. But what I love more than people buying into the things that I buy into is them doing the work to know that what they're selecting is going to support their own independence, worth and alliance with their own higher power and their highest good.
Speaker 1:Anytime we put our faith and our trust in false institutions, including marriage, when those things come under pressure, they're going to fail. If it's false, right, we are meant to put our faith and our trust in our higher power, in our higher selves, and then to join those things with other people, to be in relationship with other people. The institution that we're supposed to put our faith and our trust in is our highest purpose, our calling our truest selves, our higher power, not other people and false gods, right? So how to determine what's true and what's not true, that's tough these days, you know, and I was recently at dinner having a conversation with somebody about how I value owning my own healthcare via homeopathy rather than putting my faith in a wellness industry, in a healthcare industry that's failing clearly, and I saw that person really struggle with the idea of not having allegiance to our current broken healthcare system, because for so long we have relied on doctors to tell us whether or not we're well or what to do with our lives, or therapists to tell us whether or not we're okay, or teachers to tell us whether or not we're okay, or teachers to tell us whether or not our kids are okay, when we know they're not. So is it a massive undertaking to own our own wellness and our own esteem and our own lives and to not rent our worth from things like marriage and pastors and teachers and doctors? Shit, yeah, it's hard, and that's what I'm inviting you to do.
Speaker 1:Love, because peace comes from owning in relationship with your higher power and your intuition and your highest self. That's where peace comes from. Love, unshakable peace comes from knowing you are in alignment and that anything that is meant for you is not going to ask you to be out of alignment, and that kind of deeply rooted faith in your path and your choices. That's where peace comes from. If this, if what I'm saying, triggers you, awesome, then you know there's something there. If what I'm'm saying triggers you awesome, then you know there's something there. If what I'm saying calls to you awesome, maybe we're a really good fit to work together.
Speaker 1:If what I'm saying overwhelms you or causes you to feel frozen or like doubt whether or not you can ever get there like great, then this is something you know. You need to look at. Anywhere we are doubting ourselves or feeling overwhelmed and triggered, there is something in there. You have some element inside of you that is trying to protect you from feeling pain, trying to protect you from having to face all of your limiting beliefs and love. That's how you know. This is the conversation that needs to happen. Next is how you can take the next step towards taking your power back from false institutions and placing it in something that is capital T true, which is your higher power and your intuition and your energetic alignment. I believe in you. Will you join me in believing in you? Peace, dear Divorce Diary is a podcast by MyCoachDawn. You can find more at MyCoachDawncom.
