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.
Welcome to Dear Divorce Diary—the only podcast for women navigating the messy aftermath of divorce who are done with quick fixes and spiritual fluff.
I’m Dawn Wiggins, therapist and homeopath, and I’m here to give you something the divorce advice space rarely does: real healing.
Through somatic therapy, EMDR, IFS, and homeopathy, we go deeper—into your nervous system, your unspoken grief, and your buried rage.
Every week, we hold the tension: the body-based anxiety you can’t shake; the hormonal upheaval no one warned you about; the unresolved longing for identity.
You’ll hear raw solo episodes, real voice notes from women in the trenches, and intimate interviews with experts who do more than perform healing.
Here, you won’t be asked to “just move on.”
You’ll be asked to feel.
If you’re tired of tutorials that leave your nervous system humming and your heart disconnected, hit subscribe.
Your nervous system already knows the truth—it just wants a safe space to embody it.

Ep. 256 - Sacred Spaces or Shackles: Women’s Stories of Religious Trauma in Marriage & Divorce
For some women, faith communities feel like sacred spaces. For others, they become shackles. Divorce makes the cracks impossible to ignore.
You’ll Learn
- The hidden trauma many women face inside religious marriage.
- How faith and shame can become tangled in divorce recovery.
- What it takes to reclaim spirituality without control or fear.
💎 Healing means reclaiming faith on your terms. Join A Different D Word
and find freedom beyond shame.
Religion is supposed to comfort, but for many divorced women, it amplified shame and silence. In this episode, I highlight real women’s stories of religious trauma, how spiritual spaces can become controlling, and the process of separating your soul from dogma. Healing doesn’t mean abandoning faith—it means reclaiming it in a way that nurtures, not controls.
Religious trauma after divorce can transform into spiritual freedom.
