Ep. 286 - A Holiday Loneliness Reset: A Nervous-System Ritual for Divorce Nights That Feel Too Quiet
Nov 20, 2025 Season 4
My Coach Dawn

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:

  • A grounding somatic sequence to bring you out of the spiral and back into your body
  • A breath pattern (“baking bread breaths”) that softens the panic response
  • A three-point sensory reorientation technique for moments when you feel unmoored
  • A nervous-system affirmation practice to remind your psyche that you are becoming, not breaking
  • A guidance sequence from your future self — the woman who cannot be lost in someone else again
  • A moment of truth-telling: loneliness is not your identity; it’s a moment passing through your body
  • A closing ritual that helps you feel rooted, warm, and safe enough to stay with yourself

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.
