Ready To Be Heard with Chantelle Dyson

What Getting Divorced at 26 Taught Me About Finding My Voice | S2 Ep 2

In this deeply personal episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on how I found my voice - after years of staying quiet. 

From childhood moments during my parents’ divorce to the pain of ending my own marriage in my 20s, I trace the dots between silence and self-expression. This isn’t just about divorce or therapy. It’s about what happens when we stop performing and start telling the truth.

You’ll hear how I went from hiding my feelings in sick bay at school to publicly sharing my story, and the fears that came with it. I talk about social "suicide" moments, what my grandma taught me about vulnerability, and why journaling and podcasting became lifelines during some of the loneliest years of my life.

Because when you own your voice, you own your story. And that changes everything.
