Who Am I Without Him?
Ever looked around your post-divorce life and thought, “Who even am I without that man-child?” Same. In this episode, Diana and I peel back the layers of Christian programming, people-pleasing trauma responses, and overfunctioning-for-Jesus syndrome to tackle the real question: Who am I when I’m not trying to fix someone else’s broken masculinity?Diana and I discuss identity loss in marriage, the process of deprogramming, and how to reclaim your God-given essence one small boundary and one journal prompt at a time. With warmth and truth bombs, this conversation is basically free therapy.Key Takeaways:Identity Loss Is Real: Many Christian women completely lose their sense of self trying to uphold “biblical” marriage roles that were never their actual calling.Trauma Rewires Your Brain: Survival mode builds false identities. Safe spaces let you rebuild your real one.Boundaries ≠ Being Mean: Saying “no” is how you say “yes” to yourself. And Jesus had them too. #JustSayingIf You Always Say “I Don’t Know”: You might be disconnected from your identity. Start by asking, “What do I need right now?”You Deserve Good Things: Not because you’re perfect, but because you’re a beloved child of God. Period. No asterisks.Mothering Yourself Is a Game-Changer: Want to be a better mom, friend, or human? Start with being a better mom to you.Read the full show notes, get the journal questions, and/or ask Natalie a question hereRelated Resources:Feel like a hot mess after divorce?

Learning To Live Alone (And Not Feel Like You’re Dying)
Welcome to Episode 2 of The Divorced Christian Woman Podcast, where we believe that living alone doesn’t mean you’re dying. It just means you finally have control of the thermostat.In this episode, I sat down with Grace, Wendy, and Maile to talk about the surprisingly surreal and also beautiful journey of learning to live solo after divorce. From blackout curtains and bougie hotel sheets to full-on nervous system rewiring, we covered it all. If you've ever cried into a bowl of cereal on a Friday night and called it dinner, congratulations - you’re not broken. You're just a woman figuring it out.We’re not here to sugarcoat the first 365 days. They're hard. But they’re also where the magic starts to crack through. And sometimes that magic smells like eucalyptus and sounds like absolute silence. The peaceful kind.Key Takeaways: Silence can be healing — it’s not loneliness, it’s peace in disguise.Blackout curtains and bougie sheets are therapy.You’re allowed to sleep in the middle of the bed.Cereal for dinner is valid. So is doing nothing.Your life wasn’t ruined. It’s just now beginning.God isn’t mad. He’s with you, not against you.Freedom feels weird at first. That’s normal.Self-trust grows when no one’s watching.Redecorating is emotional rehab.
