Dear Divorce Diary: A Fresh Approach To Healing Grief & Building A Life Of Confidence After Divorce
This isn’t a breakup pep talk. It’s a full-body recalibration for women navigating life after divorce. Dear Divorce Diary is a podcast for women dealing with grief, loneliness, anxiety, anxious or avoidant attachment, and identity loss after divorce — especially when quick fixes, positivity, and spiritual fluff no longer work.
I’m Dawn Wiggins, therapist, coach, and homeopath, and this show goes where most divorce advice won’t: into your nervous system, your unspoken grief, your buried rage, and the parts of you that shut down just to survive.
Through honest conversation, somatic tools, EMDR- and IFS-informed work, and nervous-system support, each episode helps you feel instead of perform healing — and rebuild safety, confidence, and self-trust from the inside out.
You’ll hear raw solo episodes, real voice notes from women in the trenches, and intimate conversations with experts who don’t just talk about healing — they embody it.
If you’re tired of being told to “move on” while your body is still bracing, this podcast is your place to land. Your nervous system already knows the truth — it just needs a space that can hold it.

Have you ever done something in a moment of anger—something you can’t stop replaying—and wondered if it means you’re no longer allowed to be “the hurt one”?
We all want to walk away from conflict with our dignity and sense of self intact, but when emotions boil over and our reactions cross lines, the guilt and shame can feel paralyzing. If you’re struggling with regret after snapping and are searching for a way to understand, heal, and move forward, you’re not alone, and this conversation is for you.
In this episode, you’ll discover why everyone—and especially women—can reach their breaking point in toxic dynamics, how suppressed emotions and past trauma contribute to sudden outbursts, and practical ways to reframe your mistakes as calls for healing rather than proof you’re beyond forgiveness.
Press play now to hear real talk and real hope on moving through shame, so you can finally build a healthier relationship with yourself and those you love.
