About this episode
Jessica Frew shares her journey of healing and self-rediscovery after betrayal, emphasizing the importance of reconnecting with oneself.
In this episode, I sit down with Jessica Frew, life coach, author, and bold decision maker, to talk about her remarkable journey through betrayal, healing, and self-rediscovery. Jessica shares the deeply personal story of her first marriage and the life-altering discovery that her husband was gay and had an affair with a man. Instead of allowing the experience to break her, she chose a path of compassion, growth, and radical acceptance. Today, they are close friends and co-parents, offering a powerful example of what healing and emotional maturity can look like. Through her journey, Jessica came to a profound realization: other people do not complete us. We become whole by reconnecting with ourselves. She opens up about releasing expectations, trusting her inner voice, and rebuilding her sense of identity and self-worth. Now, she helps other women do the same by guiding them through betrayal, divorce, and major life transitions. Jessica is also the author of Shove Your Shoulds , a transformative book about letting go of external pressures and making courageous decisions. You can download the book for free on her website.
