Welcome to Day 3 of the 12 Days of Divorce Christmas...also known as the 12 Days of Becoming Her Again.
Today we’re talking about one of the hardest moments after divorce: going to the holiday party alone.
The explaining.
The questions you don’t want to answer.
The way your body tightens when you walk into a room where you used to belong as part of a couple.
For many women, this isn’t just social anxiety — it’s identity grief.
You were someone’s wife.
You had a role.
You had a place.
And now you’re figuring out who you are without rehearsing strength or pretending you’re fine.
In this episode, Joy and I walk you through how to prepare for being single at the holiday party in a way that actually supports your nervous system — instead of leaving you depleted before you even arrive.
We talk about:
This episode isn’t about performing confidence.
It’s about staying in Self.
You don’t need the night to go perfectly.
You just need a way to stay connected to you while you’re there.
And we’ll walk you through that — step by step.

Welcome to Day 2 of the 12 Days of Divorce Christmas...also known as the 12 Days of Becoming Her Again.
Today we’re talking about something no one prepares you for after divorce:
when the house is too quiet.
Not peaceful quiet.
Not restful quiet.
The kind of quiet that feels heavy, deafening, and impossible to sit in.
When the house feels too quiet, most of us instinctively want to:
Anything to avoid being alone with the silence.
But today, Joy and I offer a third option...one that doesn’t involve running away or forcing yourself to sit still and “process.”
We talk about why:
And then we invite you into something different.
This episode is about:
This is not about being productive.
It’s not about doing healing “right.”
It’s about aliveness.
If the quiet has been breaking you, this episode will help you meet it differently — with energy, humor, and permission to be big.

Welcome to Day 1 of the 12 Days of Divorce Christmas...also known as the 12 days of becoming her again.
If you’re listening today, there’s a good chance part of you feels like:
“I can’t do this.”
Not the holidays.
Not the decisions.
Not the weight of doing this alone.
This episode isn’t here to convince you otherwise.
It’s here to help you understand that when you feel like you can’t, it’s not weakness or victimhood — it’s a capacity issue, not a character flaw.
In today’s episode, we talk about:
This is not a big breakthrough episode.
It’s a grounding episode.
Water.
Food.
Breath.
Connection.
The basics that matter when everything feels like too much.
You don’t need to fix your life today.
You just need enough capacity to stay present.
And today, that’s enough.

A podcast exploring the journey of life after divorce, delving into topics like divorce grief, loneliness, anxiety, manifesting, the impact of different attachment styles and codependency, setting healthy boundaries, energy healing with homeopathy, managing the nervous system during divorce depression, understanding the stages of divorce grief, and using the Law of Attraction and EMDR therapy in the process of building your confidence, forgiveness and letting go.
After divorce, many women aren’t just grieving...they’re carrying too much in their nervous system.
Too much responsibility.
Too much self-doubt.
Too much pressure to hold it together.
That load doesn’t live in your thoughts. It lives in your body.
In this episode, Dawn guides a somatic practice that blends EFT tapping with IFS-style parts work to help the nervous system release what it’s been holding. This is not about insight, fixing, or doing it right. It’s about staying in the body long enough for real relief to happen.
The focus is simple: meet the overwhelmed part with compassion, let go of what was never meant to be carried alone, and restore capacity one layer at a time.
If this created even a small shift, there are three ways to continue:
• Take the Divorce Recovery Nervous System Quiz to understand how your system is organized after divorce and where it’s getting stuck.
• Join Dear Divorce Diary Premium for deeper nervous system support, guided practices, and behind-the-scenes conversations.
• Join the Cocoon Community for ongoing (free), structured support that integrates somatic work, regulation, and real-life healing.
This isn’t about becoming stronger.
It’s about carrying less.

The holidays can make everything feel heavier — especially when you’re freshly divorced or still deep in the weeds of it all.
In this episode of Dear Divorce Diary, we talk about three hidden patterns that often stall divorce healing and leave women feeling unsafe, unmoored, and scattered, even when the marriage is over and you’re trying to move forward.
This conversation is a teaser for Season 5 - can you believe it?!- where we’ll spend six weeks breaking these patterns down and showing you how to work with your nervous system instead of fighting it. We talk about why anxiety can increase after divorce, why many women feel foggy or shut down, and why “just pushing through” rarely helps during already overwhelming seasons like Hanukkah and the lead-up to Christmas.
If you’re listening while navigating the holidays and wondering why things still feel so hard, this episode will help you understand what’s actually happening.
And if this season already feels like too much, stay close. Our 12 Days of Divorce Christmas series starts next and is designed to support you through the moments that tend to hit the hardest.

Today’s episode is personal, unpolished, and happening in real time.
This is the first in our new premium series, Behind the Mic—where we take you into the conversations that usually happen off-air. And this week, I’m sharing something I’m still moving through: a recent miscarriage.
Inside this conversation, we talk about how this loss collided with my lifelong pattern of staying in masculine energy—overfunctioning, overproducing, and avoiding vulnerability by handling everything myself. We explore why receiving support still feels harder than giving it, how early attachment trauma shaped that, and what happens to a woman’s nervous system and hormones when softness feels unsafe.
You’ll also hear a candid discussion between me, Joy, and Tiff about suppression, self-sacrifice, and the way so many high-achieving women are conditioned to stay “strong” at the expense of their own bodies.
This isn’t a polished teaching moment. It’s us, in the middle of it, naming patterns as they surface and practicing the very tools we teach—IFS, EMDR principles, nervous system awareness—to move through something raw and immediate.
If you’ve ever carried grief alone, struggled to step out of your masculine, or felt terrified to let yourself be supported, this conversation will land in a very specific place.

If the holidays feel heavier this year—even the tiny decisions that shouldn’t take this much out of you—there’s a reason. After divorce, women carry an invisible load no one prepares us for. The planning, the negotiating, the managing, the remembering, the holding-it-all-together… it piles up until your body feels like it’s running on fumes.
And that overwhelm you keep blaming on weakness or poor coping?
It’s not that.
It’s decision fatigue—and the version divorced women face during the holidays is unlike anything you dealt with before.
In this episode, we break down the hidden loop that keeps you exhausted:
– why making every decision alone pushes your system into overdrive
– how living in “fix it / manage it / hold it all” mode disconnects you from ease
– the subtle ways grief shows up through your holiday choices
– and why this season feels so much harder than it looks from the outside
Most importantly, you’ll learn the first real step toward breaking that cycle—so you can stop white-knuckling your way through December and start making choices that are kind to your body, not destructive to it.
You’re not failing.
You’re not too emotional.
You’re not “bad at the holidays.”
You’re overwhelmed because you’ve been carrying more than anyone can see.
Come sit with us. Let’s walk you out of the spiral together.

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:
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.

If you’ve ever felt that tug toward your ex...not the man, but the idea of him...we've got you. That pull is your nervous system trying to finish a story it never got closure on. And after divorce, that pull gets loud.
In this episode, we break down why trauma bonds feel like soul ties and why your body keeps reaching for someone who couldn’t give you safety. You’ll learn what’s actually happening in your brain, why familiar pain feels magnetic, and how to interrupt the urge to text him back.
We also give you a simple sentence you can use the second your spiral starts, and we help you begin separating trauma from truth—because those two feel identical when you’re hurting.
And inside Cocoon this week, we’re celebrating wins, joy, and nervous-system rehab with this month’s Magic Drop giveaway. (If you’re not in the community yet… get in there.)
If peace feels unfamiliar, if chaos feels like home, if your body keeps wanting what your mind already left—this one’s for you.
Don’t miss Thursday’s premium episode. Dawn is guiding you through a nervous-system visualization designed to soften the cord where it actually lives—in your body. It’s how you break the loop for real.

Sometimes panic doesn’t wait for privacy.
It hits in the grocery store aisle, the Target parking lot, or right between the pasta sauce and the paper towels — the places where your body finally says, “No. I can’t hold this alone anymore.”
This premium episode is your real-time grounding track for those moments.
A full nervous-system reset you can use while you’re actively panicking — not later, not in hindsight, but right there, in public, while your heart is racing and your manager parts are trying to keep it all together.
Inside, Dawn guides you through:
This is your pocket guide for public panic — steadying, human, and deeply regulating.
Come back to it anytime your nervous system needs someone to sit with you and help you breathe again.

...and then there’s the moment you’re just standing in the pasta sauce aisle, realizing your life doesn’t come in a set of two anymore.
No one warns you about that part of life after divorce.
The everyday grief.
The way your stomach drops when you reach for a family-size anything and remember: it’s just me now.
In this episode, Dawn, Joy, and Tiff unpack why the tiny, ordinary moments hit harder than the big ones — and why the grocery store aisle can feel like a spiritual breakdown near the beans.
You’ll learn:
And later, in our My Body Said No segment, we share the real, raw ways our bodies are setting boundaries this season — and how honoring those no’s is a core part of healing divorce grief.
If you’ve ever pretended to compare marinara jars just to get a second to breathe… this episode will feel like someone finally naming what you’ve been carrying.
Love you.

If you pressed play on this tonight, it probably means the quiet hit differently.
Not the peaceful kind — the kind that presses against your ribs and makes your chest feel too small for your own heart.
The kind of quiet that shows up after divorce, when the world is flashing warm twinkle-light romance and happy-family commercials, and you're sitting in a room trying to remember how to breathe in your own life.
This episode is your place to land.
Inside this premium session, Dawn guides you through a gentle but powerful nervous-system practice designed for the exact kind of ache that shows up when the house gets still, the loneliness gets loud, and you feel like you're carrying your healing alone.
This is not about escaping the ache.
It's about not having to feel it alone.
You’ll be held through:
This episode is the kind you save.
For the nights when your chest feels like a raw nerve.
For the holidays, the empty rooms, the too-quiet evenings.
For anytime you need someone to meet you in the dark and sit with you until you feel like you again.
Come breathe with Dawn.
Come anchor back into the woman you’re rising into.
You’re here — and you’re not leaving you.

The holidays don’t just remind you who’s at your table...
They remind you who isn’t.
When you’re divorced, that quiet has a sound.
It’s the clink of one mug instead of two.
The solo grocery run.
The ache of seeing everyone else’s “perfect” family photos.
And the part no one talks about?
Your nervous system feels all of it long before your mind catches up.
In this episode, Dawn, Joy, and Tiff walk you through why holiday grief hits differently... not just emotionally, but neurologically.
Your brain codes the holidays as both comfort and threat, and that dual-wiring explains so much of the confusion, anxiety, tight chest, and “I don’t belong anywhere” thoughts that tend to surface this time of year.
And today, we’re going to help you work with all of it.
In this episode:
✨ Why holiday grief feels louder in your body
— the neuroscience behind scents, memories, and tradition triggering loss and longing
✨ The real reason divorced women feel like they “don’t belong anywhere”
— and how this actually traces back to belonging to yourself
✨ The phrase to repeat at any holiday party when your chest tightens
“I am safe to be seen in this moment.”
✨ A 60-second bathroom-stall nervous system reset
Cold-water wrists, humming, squats, breath work — your new somatic toolkit for holiday overwhelm
✨ How to turn this season from performance into personal power
(New traditions, choosing yourself, claiming authenticity, and ditching the performative holiday mask)
✨ Why your circle shifts after divorce
— and why that shift is actually a sign of growth, not failure
This episode is a warm hand on your back, reminding you that nothing about your holiday pain means you’re behind, broken, or unlovable. It means your nervous system still remembers love — and is learning how to feel safe again without him.
This week’s Thursday Premium episode is a guided, real-time grounding practice for the exact moment your nervous system spirals — in the grocery store aisle, the car, or the corner of the holiday party.

You can talk about healing all day long…
But until you learn this kind of forgiveness, you’ll keep carrying him—
in your body, your triggers, your next relationship.
In this Dear Divorce Diary Premium episode, we get real about the difference between talking about forgiveness and actually feeling it.
You’ll walk through three powerful journal prompts that expose the exact places you’re still holding on—
and teach your body how to finally let go.
This isn’t about being the bigger person.
It’s about ending the loop.
If you’re tired of “working on yourself” but still feel the ache, this is the episode that moves the needle.

You swore you were past it.
You journaled, forgave, meditated, did the work.
But then a photo shows up, or someone says his name, and your chest tightens again. That’s resentment — the emotion that doesn’t move out just because you tell it to.
In this episode, we stop pretending it’s gone.
We talk about what keeps it alive, why it feeds on validation, and what’s hiding under all that anger.
Joy shares the text that broke her cool...Tiff opens up about being the one who always held it all together while he got to play the “fun dad.”...And I talk about the moment I realized my resentment wasn’t about him anymore (it was about the part of me that still didn’t feel safe alone).
We get honest about the apology that never helps, the waiting for closure that keeps you stuck, and the small ways resentment protects you from feeling the harder stuff underneath: grief, fear, loneliness, shame.
If you’ve ever thought, “Why can’t I just move on?” — this one’s for you.

When your hormones and your heartbreak start tag-teaming your sanity, it can feel like your body and your emotions are working against you. You’re exhausted, irritable, sleepless, and half the time you can’t tell if you’re healing or falling apart.
In this episode, Dawn, Tiffini, and Joy unpack the missing link that brings your body and emotions back onto the same team. Together, they break down:
✨ Why somatics matter — and how real healing starts when you stop trying to “think” your way better and start working through the body.
🔥 The hormone connection — what perimenopause does to your nervous system, mood, and energy, and how to gently support balance again.
💧 The homeopathic solutions we swear by — including the Hot Flash Support blend that changed Joy’s life in under a week and the exclusive Divorce Recovery Blend designed just for Premium listeners.
💗 How to ground your grief — and move through divorce without staying stuck in survival mode.
If you’ve ever wondered why you can be doing “all the right things” and still feel off—this is the conversation that finally connects the dots.

It’s not just about hot flashes or sleep loss.
It’s your identity, libido, mood, memory, confidence, and worth all shifting at once.

There’s a kind of loneliness that doesn’t just live in your thoughts — it lives in your body...It’s the ache in your chest when you see another couple holding hands.
The quiet in the house that feels too loud.
The impulse to pour a glass of wine or take something to help you not feel so much.
In this episode of Dear Divorce Diary, Dawn, Joy, and Tiff guide you through a custom EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) tapping practice designed to help you release the nervous system pain of being single in a couple’s world — and remember that belonging starts within.
Before the guided sequence, you’ll learn how EFT actually works:
Why we tap on certain meridian points, what each one helps release (grief, shame, resentment, fear), and how those points help regulate your nervous system when loneliness hits hard.
Then, together, they lead you through a real-time tapping meditation to help your body feel safe again — safe to feel, safe to rest, and safe to belong to yourself.
✨ In this episode
🧘♀️ Try it now
Find a quiet space.
Take a deep breath.
Tap along as Dawn leads the practice and notice your body start to soften — the exhale that says, I’m okay. I belong here.

Dinner for two, “plus-one” invites, family discounts — even the way people glance at you when you’re alone after divorce. It can feel like every billboard is whispering: you don’t belong.
In this episode of Dear Divorce Diary, Dawn, Coach Tiffini, and Producer Joy get brutally honest about what it means to be single in a couple’s world. They unpack:
💔 Why loneliness after divorce isn’t weakness — it’s your nervous system’s signal for connection.
🧠 How your attachment style (anxious, avoidant, or disorganized) shows up when you’re alone.
💸 The “silent tax” of singleness — and how to shift from scarcity to self-trust and abundance.
💡 Why healing your attachment style requires more than talk therapy — and how tools like EFT, IFS, and homeopathy can rewire safety from the inside out.
Plus, in this week’s premium episode, the ladies guide you through a custom EFT tapping sequence for loneliness — a real-time way to calm your body, feel safe again, and start reprogramming attachment patterns.
If you’ve ever felt invisible, resentful, or just plain tired of a world made for pairs, this one’s for you.

You could be a therapist, a coach, or the friend who swears she knows better—and still fall for an avoidant man’s games after divorce.
In this Dear Divorce Diary Premium episode, Dawn, Joy, and Tiffini get brutally honest (and hilariously real) about the ridiculous ways smart women stay hooked—the late-night texts, the lies we half-believed, the crumbs we treated like connection.
Then they flip the script with five raw, transformative questions that help you break the trauma bond for good and reclaim your nervous system.
This conversation blends cringe, comedy, and clarity—and by the end, you’ll never look at that buzz of his name lighting up your phone the same way again.
In this episode:
• Why even strong, self-aware women ignore red flags after divorce (hint: it’s not stupidity—it’s nervous-system survival)
• How avoidant partners keep you emotionally addicted and how to spot the pattern in real time
• A simple somatic tool (ankle rolls + humming) to calm your body when you’re tempted to text back
• Five journal-ready questions that change everything about how you respond to those “Hey stranger” messages

He disappears, then drops a “just checking in” text.
He remembers the good old days, then ghosts again.
That push–pull dance isn’t love — it’s control.
In this episode of Dear Divorce Diary, Dawn, Tiffini, and Joy unpack the hidden cost of divorcing an avoidant man — the paranoia, the false connection, the endless emotional labor — and teach you how to finally flip the script.
You’ll learn:
💔 How avoidant behavior actually works (and why it’s not your fault)
🧠 The nervous-system science behind intermittent affection
🔥 The one boundary that ends post-divorce hooks for good
💬 The single question that changes how you respond to him — forever
Write this down:
Am I about to respond as the woman he trained me to be — or as the woman I’m becoming?
If that line hits you in the gut, that’s the point. It’s time to stop being who he conditioned you to be and start becoming who you really are.

You’ve read the books, gone to therapy, tried to make the “right” choice… and still feel like you’re second-guessing everything. After divorce, even simple decisions can feel like emotional quicksand.
In this episode, Dawn introduces Human Design—a quantum-meets-psychology framework that reveals how you were built to make decisions, manifest, and recharge your energy. Whether you’re wired for logic, emotion, gut instinct, or reflection, understanding your design can transform the way you trust yourself again.
Dawn shares stories from pulling her own chart—and Tiffini’s and Joy’s—to show how this system validates what women already know deep down: you’re not broken, you’ve just been trying to live by someone else’s rules.
You’ll learn:
✨ Why traditional therapy can keep you second-guessing your own wisdom
✨ How your Human Design type influences burnout, boundaries, and intuition
✨ The surprising reason decision fatigue skyrockets after divorce
✨ How alignment (not hustle) creates real healing and coherence
If you’re ready to stop asking, “What’s wrong with me?” and start remembering who you are—this episode is your permission slip.

Denial isn’t just pretending things are fine — it’s the story your nervous system tells so you don’t have to feel the full truth yet.
In this episode, we talk about how denial shows up in subtle ways:
...staying busy so you don’t feel,
...justifying behavior that hurts you,
...and, convincing yourself “it’s not that bad.”
And why breaking through it isn’t about shame — it’s about safety.
This is one of those episodes that’s worth hearing again, because the moment denial cracks, real healing begins.

Some relationships end, but their patterns keep living in your body long after the divorce papers are signed.
In this rerelease, we talk about the hidden patterns that you thought were love — but were really fear. The ways you chased safety, approval, and control when what you actually craved was connection. The push-pull of attachment styles, codependency, and nervous system survival strategies that kept you looping in anxiety and longing.
If you’ve ever wondered why you keep attracting the same type of partner or why you can’t stop missing someone who hurt you, this episode will help you see what was really happening beneath the surface.
