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.

Ep. 348. The Loneliness Divorce Creates | A Guided Healing Meditation
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Divorce loneliness is different.
It’s not just missing a person.
It’s missing the rhythm your body got used to.
The future you thought you were building.
The version of you that existed before survival mode took over.
And sometimes the hardest part?
Your nervous system still feels abandoned long after your mind has decided the relationship needed to end.
In this special guided healing meditation, Dawn shares a deeply restorative quantum healing experience by Kate Mayor designed to help soothe emotional isolation, calm the nervous system, reconnect you to yourself, and gently shift the emotional heaviness loneliness can leave behind.
This is not about forcing yourself to “move on.”
It’s about creating enough safety in the body for healing to begin naturally.
Through guided visualization, nervous system relaxation, subconscious connection, and energetic healing, this meditation invites your body out of hypervigilance and back into softness, presence, and possibility.
Whether you’re in the thick of grief, struggling with emotional exhaustion, or simply craving a moment to feel held instead of holding everything together… this episode is for you.
Put your headphones on.
Find somewhere quiet.
And let yourself receive for the next 15 minutes.

What Divorce Loneliness Really Feels Like
SPEAKER_00The loneliness divorce creates isn't always about being physically alone. Sometimes it's lying in bed next to your phone wondering who you even are now. Sometimes it's realizing how much of your energy went into surviving, caregiving, anticipating, fixing, holding everything together, and now the silence feels deafening. And sometimes it's the strange ache of missing a version of yourself you can't fully get back to yet. Sometimes your body still feels abandoned. Even when your mind knows the marriage is over for a
