    218. Remembering Who You Are After Divorce: 3 Steps to Get Your Identity Back

    Have you forgotten who you are? A simple question from my trainer stuck with me for days, and it opened up something so many of us carry after a destructive relationship. When the life you built gets blown apart, you may realize you don’t really know who you are outside of everything you worked so hard to be. In this episode, I share the image of an overgrown rosebush and what it means to finally see what’s been choking out the roses. Then we walk through three simple questions to help you return to yourself, one small step at a time. We also talk about why just being can feel so uncomfortable, why your worth was never something you had to earn, and how coming back to your center can help you settle when your mind won’t stop racing. _________ ✨ WORK WITH AMIE + NEXT STEPS IN YOUR HEALING ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amiewoolsey.com/amie-woolsey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Free Video Series "Am I In An Abusive Relationship"⁠⁠⁠⁠ :You will receive an email containing videos that guide you through the 8 domains of a relationship and explore potentially destructive dynamics you may be experiencing.Each video includes a worksheet to help you reflect on your lived experience and gain greater clarity and understanding of your reality.Please note: the email subject line will not include the word "abuse." https://amiewoolsey.com/am-i-in-an-abusive-relationship 📍 Dating From Within Workshop- January 14-16th 2027!! 👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cli⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ck here to join interest list⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://datingfromwithin.amiewoolsey.com/dating-from-within-page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Divorce Q&A⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Free monthly group coaching.

    217. The Unfairness Of A Life Saving Divorce

    When you’re carrying the financial strain, parenting responsibilities, and losses of a divorce while your ex appears to carry on with life, “just focus on yourself” can feel painfully inadequate. Especially when the harm continues and the people you hoped would help don’t acknowledge what happened. In this episode, I make room for the unfairness of divorce after betrayal and abuse, including the experiences that go beyond disappointment into injustice. I share parts of my own life-saving divorce and explore why being heard matters, how grief and injustice overlap, and why moving forward can feel like letting someone get away with what they did. I also offer a gentle starting point for when you’re ready: identifying what hurts today, the need underneath it, and where safe support might be available. Through awareness, acceptance, and agency, I explore how to begin reclaiming your energy without agreeing that what happened was okay. You can grieve what you lost and build something meaningful alongside that grief, even when accountability and acknowledgment never arrive. _______✨ WORK WITH AMIE + NEXT STEPS IN YOUR HEALING ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amiewoolsey.com/amie-woolsey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Free Video Series "Am I In An Abusive Relationship"⁠⁠⁠ :You will receive an email containing videos that guide you through the 8 domains of a relationship and explore potentially destructive dynamics you may be experiencing.Each video includes a worksheet to help you reflect on your lived experience and gain greater clarity and understanding of your reality.Please note: the email subject line will not include the word "abuse." https://amiewoolsey.com/am-i-in-an-abusive-relationship 📍 Dating From Within Workshop- JANUARY 14-16th⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://datingfromwithin.amiewoolsey.com/dating-from-within-page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Divorce Q&A⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Free monthly group coaching.

    216. Sexual Consent In Marriage; with Geoff Struer

    With the Cornell 7 case all over social media, so many women are wondering whether what happened to them counts, including what happened inside their marriage. This episode is for you. I’m re-airing my conversation with marriage and family therapist Geoff Steurer about sexual consent in marriage. We talk about why marriage is never a blanket yes, how coercion shows up in everyday ways, why your body’s response doesn’t mean you consented, and how pornography shapes our beliefs about sex. Before the conversation, I share the ways we rationalize what happened, how coercion can continue after divorce, and what healthy sex really looks like. You are the chooser of your life and your body, and you can choose to heal. Content note: This episode discusses sexual coercion and assault. Please listen with care.

    215. Indifference After A Life-Saving Divorce: Healing Isn't Feeling Nothing

    Today I’m talking about indifference—the idea that if you feel nothing about your ex, you must be “healed.” I get why that sounds appealing after betrayal, trauma, and a life-saving divorce, but I don’t think indifference is a reliable measure of growth, especially when you’re still co-parenting and their choices keep impacting you and your kids. If you spiral when they start dating, brace when a text comes in, or feel grief watching your children be let down, that doesn’t mean you’re failing—it means something real is being touched. Instead of asking “How do I stop caring?” I invite you to ask “What just happened in me?” and “What needs my attention?” Somatic healing, honest emotional clarity, and boundaries can help you find relief while still building the life you choose. _________ ✨ WORK WITH AMIE + NEXT STEPS IN YOUR HEALING ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amiewoolsey.com/amie-woolsey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Free Video Series "Am I In An Abusive Relationship"⁠⁠⁠ :You will receive an email containing videos that guide you through the 8 domains of a relationship and explore potentially destructive dynamics you may be experiencing.Each video includes a worksheet to help you reflect on your lived experience and gain greater clarity and understanding of your reality.Please note: the email subject line will not include the word "abuse." https://amiewoolsey.com/am-i-in-an-abusive-relationship 📍 Dating From Within Workshop- January 14-16th 2027!! 👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cli⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ck here to join interest list⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://datingfromwithin.amiewoolsey.com/dating-from-within-page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Divorce Q&A⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Free monthly group coaching.

    214. Father Wound with Terri Cole

    I’m excited to welcome licensed psychotherapist and author Terri Cole back to the podcast to talk about her upcoming book, Father Wound (out November 17th), building on our past conversation about Too Much and the high-functioning codependent. Terri defines the “father wound” as a psychological and emotional injury from an absent, abusive, or emotionally unavailable father figure (and broader patriarchal conditioning) that creates a core worthiness wound, without needing to villainize fathers or involve them in the healing process. We discuss myths, how unhealed wounds can look like strengths, and key symptoms including perfectionism, people-pleasing, harsh inner critic, anxiety or numbness, self-abandonment, disordered boundaries, fear of abandonment, hyper-independence, and hypervigilance. Terri shares how healing through self-awareness, compassion, nervous-system practices, and integration can change relationship patterns and dating choices, plus resources, bonuses, and her free pre-order retreat at fatherwoundbook.com. terricole.com __________________ ✨ WORK WITH AMIE + NEXT STEPS IN YOUR HEALING ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amiewoolsey.com/amie-woolsey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Free Video Series "Am I In An Abusive Relationship"⁠⁠⁠ :You will receive an email containing videos that guide you through the 8 domains of a relationship and explore potentially destructive dynamics you may be experiencing.Each video includes a worksheet to help you reflect on your lived experience and gain greater clarity and understanding of your reality.Please note: the email subject line will not include the word "abuse." https://amiewoolsey.com/am-i-in-an-abusive-relationship 📍 Dating From Within Workshop- June 11th-13th 👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cli⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ck here to join interest list⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://datingfromwithin.amiewoolsey.com/dating-from-within-page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Divorce Q&A⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Free monthly group coaching.

    213. Autophagy and Healing: How Your Body's Cellular Cleanup Process Mirrors Betrayal Trauma Recovery

    In today’s episode, I’m sharing a few quick updates (no October live Q&A because I’ll be in Vancouver for training, the next Dating From Within workshop interest list is open for January, and how following/reviewing helps other women find this support) and then diving into a powerful healing metaphor I learned from functional medicine: autophagy. I talk about why it can feel like you’re “going backwards” when things finally get safer—because your nervous system adapted to chaos—and how healing can look like sorting what you’ve carried: keeping what’s still useful, breaking down what’s damaged, and releasing what no longer needs to run your life. I also connect “mitophagy” to the question of energy, share a personal example around child support, and offer my pillars of healing—awareness, acceptance, and agency—plus two questions to help you reclaim your energy. _________ ✨ WORK WITH AMIE + NEXT STEPS IN YOUR HEALING ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amiewoolsey.com/amie-woolsey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Free Video Series "Am I In An Abusive Relationship"⁠⁠ :You will receive an email containing videos that guide you through the 8 domains of a relationship and explore potentially destructive dynamics you may be experiencing.Each video includes a worksheet to help you reflect on your lived experience and gain greater clarity and understanding of your reality.Please note: the email subject line will not include the word "abuse." https://amiewoolsey.com/am-i-in-an-abusive-relationship 📍 Dating From Within Workshop- January 14-16th 2027!! 👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cli⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ck here to join interest list⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://datingfromwithin.amiewoolsey.com/dating-from-within-page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Divorce Q&A⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Free monthly group coaching.

    212. Healing After Divorce: Still Seeing Yourself Through Your Ex’s Eyes?

    After divorce, your ex may be out of your life, but their lens can still come with you. You may find yourself questioning purchases, choices, how you look, what you wear, whether you’re “doing divorce right,” or what your ex might think—even when you don’t want them back and don’t actually need their approval. Betrayal, criticism, control, and years of adjusting around someone else can make their opinions feel so familiar that you don’t realize you’re still using them as a reference point. And sometimes it isn’t even your ex. It’s the church congregation, former in-laws, mutual friends, family, or the imagined audience wondering what they must think about the life you’re creating now. In this episode, I talk about how to recognize whose lens you’re looking through, take the mirror back, rebuild self-trust, and begin making choices from your own thoughts, values, body, and desires. Because you are the chooser in your life, and little by little, choice by choice, you get to build a life that reflects you. _________ ✨ WORK WITH AMIE + NEXT STEPS IN YOUR HEALING ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amiewoolsey.com/amie-woolsey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Free Video Series "Am I In An Abusive Relationship"⁠⁠ :You will receive an email containing videos that guide you through the 8 domains of a relationship and explore potentially destructive dynamics you may be experiencing.Each video includes a worksheet to help you reflect on your lived experience and gain greater clarity and understanding of your reality.Please note: the email subject line will not include the word "abuse." https://amiewoolsey.com/am-i-in-an-abusive-relationship 📍 Dating From Within Workshop- June 11th-13th 👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cli⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ck here to join interest list⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://datingfromwithin.amiewoolsey.com/dating-from-within-page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Divorce Q&A⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Free monthly group coaching.

    211. Healing After Betrayal: What Costa Rica Taught Me About Belonging, Self-Worth, and Slowing Down

    After returning from nearly a month in Costa Rica leading a women's somatic healing retreat, I'm sharing two powerful lessons that deepened my own healing journey after betrayal and divorce. In this episode, I explore why our sense of belonging is often shaken by betrayal trauma, emotional abuse, and divorce—and how reclaiming your worth begins by remembering that you already belong. I also share why slowing down isn't falling behind but is one of the most important practices for nervous system regulation, self-trust, and lasting emotional healing. If you're navigating betrayal trauma, high-conflict divorce, grief, or trying to rebuild your life after abuse, this episode offers encouragement, practical reflection questions, and hope that healing doesn't come from rushing—it comes from becoming. In this episode you'll learn:• Why betrayal often disrupts your sense of belonging• How trauma impacts your nervous system and self-worth• Why "slow is fast" when it comes to healing• Practical ways to build self-trust and create healthy boundaries• The deeper meaning of Pura Vida and how it can transform your healing journey _____________________ ✨ WORK WITH AMIE + NEXT STEPS IN YOUR HEALING ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://amiewoolsey.com/amie-woolsey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠Free Video Series "Am I In An Abusive Relationship"⁠ :You will receive an email containing videos that guide you through the 8 domains of a relationship and explore potentially destructive dynamics you may be experiencing.Each video includes a worksheet to help you reflect on your lived experience and gain greater clarity and understanding of your reality.Please note: the email subject line will not include the word "abuse." https://amiewoolsey.com/am-i-in-an-abusive-relationship 📍 Dating From Within Workshop- June 11th-13th 👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cli⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ck here to join interest list⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://datingfromwithin.amiewoolsey.com/dating-from-within-page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Empowered Divorce Q&A⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Free monthly group coaching.
