*************************************************************************************

Would you ever confess to sleeping with your ex’s best friend before your divorce was finalized—or would you keep that secret buried forever?

Divorce is messy enough, but what happens when real human needs for comfort, connection, and validation push us toward choices we never pictured ourselves making?

If you’ve ever worried that your own healing process might be "too messy" or that your search for pleasure and being seen makes you less deserving of compassion, you’re not alone. This episode dives deep into the shame, loneliness, and judgment women so often face after divorce, especially when it comes to reclaiming their pleasure and self-worth in ways society doesn’t always approve of.

In this honest, no-holds-barred listen, you’ll discover:

  • How moments of vulnerability—like sleeping with someone unexpected—are often more about healing loneliness and feeling truly seen than about reckless decisions.
  • Why women are judged so harshly for seeking pleasure or comfort, and the layers of jealousy, insecurity, and societal expectation at play.
  • Real stories and confessions from women who have stood in their truths, moved through shame, and learned to embrace every complex, imperfect part of their journey.

Ready to feel seen, supported, and inspired to embrace your own messy, honest healing after divorce? Hit play and join the conversation with women who get it.
