  • Episode 364: Burnout After Divorce: What Nobody Prepares You For

    Episode 364: Burnout After Divorce: What Nobody Prepares You For
    Apr 9 2026

    Something I hear increasingly among my client population is the experience of burnout after divorce. And this is the thing that very few people prepare you for.

    You've made it through the hardest decision of your life. You survived the chaos of the initial separation. You got through the legal process. And then you get to the other side, expecting to feel magically better, clear, and free.

    Instead, you feel exhausted.

    So in this week's solo episode, I am going to shine a light on what is actually happening in your body and your nervous system after divorce. Why it's so much more than just being tired, what burnout after divorce actually looks like and why it's so disorienting, and what regulated rebuilding actually looks like so you don't end up right back in depletion.

    What you'll hear about in this episode:

    • Why burnout after divorce is about way more than just being tired

    • How burnout actually shows up and why it catches so many women completely off guard

    • What regulated rebuilding really looks like after years of survival mode

    • How tiny micro-steps of noticing, honoring, and following through rebuild self-trust over time

    • Why powering through burnout is the one thing that will set you back the most

  • Episode 363: Codependency in Women: Signs, Patterns, and How to Break Free with Michelle Farris

    Episode 363: Codependency in Women: Signs, Patterns, and How to Break Free with Michelle Farris
    Apr 2 2026
    Imagine what it would be like to create healthy relationships without sacrificing ourselves as women. That is exactly what Michelle Farris helps women do. Michelle is a psychotherapist and codependency expert, and this conversation goes deep fast. She brings both the clinical knowledge and the lived experience of someone who has done her own recovery work, and honestly, we could not have been more in sync. Codependency is one of those words that gets thrown around a lot, and yet so many women are still walking around not fully recognizing themselves in it. At its core, it is what happens when someone hyperfocuses on helping, fixing, and controlling others in hopes of getting the love and validation that cannot be given to themselves. So externally focused that the magnifying glass never turns into the mirror. And if the focus is always on someone else, there is no reason to look inward. This conversation gets into what codependency actually is, why naming it is not a disservice but a necessity, and what it really takes to start building a relationship with yourself when the focus has been on everyone else for as long as anyone can remember. Codependency recovery is not about fixing anyone else. It is about finally turning the focus inward. Knowing something is wrong is just the beginning. Finding yourself again is the work. What you'll hear about in this episode: What codependency actually is and why helping, fixing, and controlling are not the same as loving (2:10) Why getting targeted support for codependency and divorce separately actually matters (8:06) Labeling codependency as a "disservice to women": Michelle explains why the problem has to be named before healing can begin (9:45) How Michelle works with women who in codependency recovery and what that process looks like (23:55) How codependency directly impacts divorce outcomes and the ability to advocate for yourself (30:51) Why wrapping yourself in the identity of mother can become its own way of avoiding recovery and what it does to your kids (32:23) Boundaries, what they actually are, why they feel impossible at first, and how to start small (37:51) Learn more about Michelle Farris: Michelle Farris is a psychotherapist, codependency expert, and anger management specialist with a passion for helping people break free from toxic relationship patterns. She's been featured in top online publications and podcasts and has reached over 3 million viewers on her YouTube channel, where she's known for giving relationship skills that work. Michelle empowers her clients to stop people-pleasing, trust themselves again, and build healthy, connected relationships through practical tools for codependency recovery, emotional regulation, and self-trust.

  • Episode 362: "Why Didn't I Leave Sooner?" Because you were becoming the person who could.

    Episode 362: "Why Didn't I Leave Sooner?" Because you were becoming the person who could.
    Mar 26 2026

    The question I hear more than almost any other, from clients, from women inside Phoenix Rising, and from my community is: "Why didn't I leave sooner?" Perhaps it's an inner voice that nudges. It sounds like you, but it's partially your friends, your family, maybe your attorney or it's cultural. That voice asks, "If it was so bad, why did she stay?" or "You should have known better."

    But here's what I want you to hear: waiting to leave is not a failure and leaving is not defined by a single moment. It's a process. You didn't fail to leave sooner, you were in the process of leaving. You were in the process of becoming the woman who could.

    In this episode I talk about what that process actually looks like and why the timeline you're judging yourself for may be exactly what made exiting your marriage possible. I get into how hope keeps women in relationships longer than almost anything else, and why that's not a weakness. I also explore why doing this self-work inside a community of women who get it, is exponentially more powerful than going through it alone.

    The goal isn't just to get out, it is to build something different on the other side. That's exactly what you're doing.

    What you'll hear about in this episode:

    • How leaving starts as a whisper and why staying at that point actually feels like the more responsible choice
    • Those practical realities like "where will I live?" or "what happens to the kids?", aren't about being stuck. They're about assessing risk.
    • Leaving requires a version of you that doesn't exist yet, and becoming that person takes time
    • How to reframe the question from "why didn't I leave sooner" to "what was I learning?"
    • Why leaving before you're ready can actually prolong the cycle and how the timing, even when it feels late, is often exactly what you needed

I love how knowledgeable and trauma-informed the host and guests are, and how uplifting and holistic the podcast episodes are, without being in any way forced.

The host Kate is wonderful - inspired, sensitive, open and honest.

I can not recommend this series enough - for women in the middle of the eye of storm in a divorce, for women who need more knowledge and information in a controlling marriage, and heck, even for women who are engaged and set to marry. Knowledge is power, sharing information makes us (women) go further and be more successful. I wish I had access to this BEFORE my married my spouse...

This is the equivalent of a personal floatation device if you feel you are drowning in a rip tide, under current
