    150. Being Painted as the Villain After Your Breakup

    This is one of the most gut-wrenching things you can go through in a breakup as a single parent. In this episode, I’m talking about what it’s like to feel villainised by your ex, especially when you know your truth isn’t being seen or understood. I’m unpacking why this can happen, what you need to do when you’re in it, how to get through it, and what actually matters most so you can stay grounded and keep moving forward without losing yourself in the process.

    149. The Uncomfortable Truth About Healing

    IM BACK!! And I'm taking about Healing. Let's be honest healing is one of those words that gets thrown around aa little too much, but what does it actually mean, especially when you’re going through a breakup as a single parent? In this episode, I’m unpacking what healing really looks like. Because the truth is, healing isn’t always pretty, and it’s not something people naturally lean into. In fact, most people avoid it. But healing isn’t about pretending things didn’t happen. It’s about working through it all so it no longer controls how you feel, how you react, and how you show up in your life. If you’ve been feeling like you keep going around in the same patterns, this episode will give you a different way to look at it and help you understand what’s really going on beneath the surface. And why healing, even though it’s uncomfortable, is one of the most important things you can do for yourself and your future.

    148. Holding Onto Hurt

    In today’s episode, I’m having a casual chat about what happens when you hold onto hurt for too long, and how it can quietly spill into other areas of your life without you even realising. I talk about why it’s so easy to stay stuck in resentment after heartbreak, how that pain can affect your mindset, your parenting, your relationships, and your peace… and why choosing kindness (for yourself and others) is one of the most powerful steps in letting go and moving forward.

    146. I'm Sick of Dealing with My Ex

    There comes a point when “being the bigger person” just feels exhausting. In this episode, I'm talking about that moment when you’re officially fed up with your ex, fed up with the games, the emotional tug-of-war, the unnecessary drama, and the constant feeling that peace is always just out of reach. When every interaction feels even harder than the last, and you start asking yourself… why am I still doing this? I unpack what it really means to hit that wall, the burnout, the frustration, and the quiet realization that sometimes dealing with them costs more than it’s worth. This isn’t about bitterness; it’s about clarity. About recognizing when you’ve had enough and admitting that, sometimes, doing it on your own feels easier, calmer, and healthier than staying stuck in a cycle that never changes. If you’ve ever wished you could just opt out of the chaos and choose yourself instead, this episode is for you.

    144. What Healing Really Looks Like After a Breakup

    We see healing all over social media, the quotes, the glow ups, the “I’m healed now” energy, but real healing after a breakup doesn’t usually look like that. It’s messy. It’s up and down. Some days you feel okay, other days you feel like you’ve gone ten steps backwards. And that’s normal. This episode is a bit of a pep talk and a reality check. I’m talking about what healing actually looks like. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re doing healing “wrong” or felt frustrated that you’re not further along by now, this one’s for you.
