When “Forever” Ends Overnight: Reclaiming Yourself After Unexpected Divorce

What happens when the life you built for decades disappears in a single moment? When you go to bed a wife and wake up a stranger to your own story?

In this episode, I sit down with divorce recovery coach Beth Carroll, who knows that pain all too well. After her 25-year marriage ended without warning, Beth faced the shock, grief, and loss of identity that so many women silently carry. But through subconscious reprogramming and somatic healing, she learned that transformation doesn’t have to take years—it can begin in weeks. Together, we explore what it means to release shame, let go of self-blame, and stop replaying the past so you can finally start asking, ‘What’s next for me?’
