282 - Surviving My Second Divorce
About this episode
Amy Edwards shares her personal journey of surviving her second divorce and the emotional truths surrounding healing and self-discovery.
Yes, you can survive divorce. I did- not once, but twice. Healing after divorce is hard enough the first time, but I was 45 when I filed the second time, and here I share the full emotional truth of what that was like: throwing the papers across the table at the attorney's office, feeling ashamed, financially scared, and invisible as a woman. It's about that shame of feeling like the family black sheep, the guilt of raising kids through divorce, the darkness that followed, and the moment I looked at a photo of myself out with friends, not smiling in a single shot!, and decided that was not who I was going to become. This episode is also about what turns the corner on healing after divorce. I walk us through exactly how I started to crawl out: saying yes to things outside of my comfort zone. It's about honest, radical responsibility and the truth I had to face about not loving myself and not speaking up for myself, both in marriage and in life.
