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.

What if the most healing thing you could do today wasn't another journal prompt, podcast episode, or breakthrough conversation?
What if it was rest?
In this special Dear Divorce Diary VIP episode, we're sharing one of the most requested practices from our Myrtle Beach retreats: a guided Yoga Nidra experience designed to help your nervous system soften, settle, and remember what safety feels like.
This isn't yoga.
You don't need flexibility.
You don't need experience.
You don't even need to stay awake.
Yoga Nidra is often called "yogic sleep," a deeply restorative practice that guides you into the space between waking and sleeping, where the body can release tension and the mind can finally stop working so hard.
Through grounding imagery, nervous system regulation, intention setting, and a gentle body scan, you'll be invited to let go of the roles, responsibilities, worries, and stories you've been carrying—and reconnect with yourself underneath it all.
So grab a blanket, get comfortable, and give yourself permission to receive.
Because healing isn't always something you do.
Sometimes it's something you allow.
Take a breath.
We'll meet you there.
