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.

Hey love, quick question—
Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought, "Where did I go?"
Like you're watching your life from the outside, floating through the motions, showing up for everyone else while quietly disappearing from yourself?
If that hit a nerve, I need you to hear this:
You’re not broken. You’re likely dissociating.
And it’s way more common than we talk about—especially after divorce.
In this premium episode of Dear Divorce Diary, I’m breaking down what dissociation really is—not just “spacing out” but a full-on nervous system response to pain, overwhelm, and trauma.
We’ll talk about the subtle signs you might be missing, why your brain had to do it to protect you, and how it’s possibly affecting your ability to heal, trust again, or even feel safe in your own skin.
I’ll also walk you through a soothing, guided reflection—designed to help you gently come home to yourself.
This is the kind of episode that hits deep and starts real change.
It’s raw, comforting, and it’s available now exclusively for our premium subscribers.
So if you’re ready to stop feeling like a stranger in your own life and start reconnecting with the woman you’re becoming—

You deserve this kind of healing.
I’ll see you there. 💛
