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. 290 - Why Cord Cutting Doesn’t Work After Divorce (And the Practice That Actually Breaks the Nervous-System Grip)
Letting go after divorce isn’t about willpower.
It’s about physiology.
Your body won’t release someone until it feels anchored somewhere safer than the place it’s been clinging.
And that’s why cord-cutting rituals, no-contact declarations, and “I’m done for real this time” moments almost never stick.
In this guided premium episode, we’re not letting go into emptiness...we’re letting go into self-belonging, the only place your nervous system actually trusts.
Inside this practice, you’ll experience:
- a guided drop-in to help your body feel held enough to release
- why your system keeps reaching for someone who once felt like safety
- the subtle shift that makes letting go feel possible, not terrifying
- a “My Body Said No” moment that clarifies what part of you is resisting
- one sentence to use when you feel the urge to reach back out
This is the deeper work:
not forcing yourself to let go...
but giving your nervous system a safer place to land.
Press play when you're ready to feel a real shift, not just think about one.

Letting go is hard. And too often we keep trying to let go into emptiness and it doesn't feel safe. We don't let go into emptiness. We let go into self-belonging. So because you're here, your body is trying to let go of someone who once felt like safety, even if they also hurt you. Today, in this guided episode, we're growing the roots that make letting go feel safer. Hi, love. Welcome to Dear Divorce Diary, the podcast helping divorcees go beyond talk therapy to process your grief, find the healing you crave, and build back your confidence. I'm your host, Don Wiggins, a therapist, coach, integrative healer, and divorcee. Join me for a fresh approach to healing grief and building your confidence after divorce. Because you cannot release what once held you unless you feel held somewhere else, we're going to begin with borrowing my steadiness. So let's sink our breaths, let's co-regulate in and out. We don't have to do this alone. Let's continue to breathe together. Imagine you and Tiffany and Joy and I. We are all just sitting in your living room together. Breathing. Connecting.
