Life’s a Blog: Rebuilding After Betrayal
Life doesn’t fall apart at 50. It gets real.
After a 24-year marriage ended in betrayal, I found myself starting over in a way I never expected. This podcast is where I talk about that. The truth of it. The grief, the anger, the healing, and everything that comes with rebuilding a life when the one you knew is gone.
I talk about relationships that look solid but aren’t. The disappointment when people don’t show up the way they said they would. The work it takes to stop chasing, set boundaries, and finally choose yourself.
There’s a lot out there about dating, confidence, and “moving on.” This isn’t that. This is about doing the real work so you don’t repeat the same patterns.
If you’re over 40, over 50, divorced, starting again, or just tired of pretending you’re fine, you’ll get it.
We’ll get into:
- betrayal and what it actually does to you
- healing without shortcuts
- dating later in life
- learning to be on your own without feeling alone
- recognizing red flags and trusting yourself again
- building a life that finally feels like yours
Most episodes are just me. Some include conversations. All of it is honest.
Because starting over isn’t the end of your story. It’s where you finally start living it.

In this deeply personal episode of Life’s a Blog, Trina takes us to her peaceful trailer on Lake Huron—a place she now calls her little piece of heaven. From reflections on her parents' passing and the healing power of solitude, to raw truths about betrayal, addiction, and starting over, Trina shares what it means to reclaim your story.
She opens up about how a simple tablet shattered her marriage, the pain of uncovering a double life, and the slow, messy road back to self-worth. With a solo road trip to CMA Fest ahead and Wynonna Judd on the playlist, this episode is part heartache, part hope—and a reminder that healing doesn’t happen all at once… but it does happen.
Just a quick note! I’m not a therapist, counsellor, or mental health professional. I’m simply sharing my personal experiences, reflections, and the things I’ve learned while navigating my own healing journey.
