Transcript
- 0:54SPEAKER_00: Hi, love.
- 0:55SPEAKER_00: Welcome to Dear Divorce Diary, the podcast helping divorcees go beyond talk therapy to process your grief, find the healing you crave, and build back your confidence.
- 1:05SPEAKER_00: I'm your host, Don Wiggins, a therapist, coach, integrative healer, and divorcee.
- 1:11SPEAKER_00: Join me for a fresh approach to healing grief and building your confidence after divorce.
- 1:24SPEAKER_00: Today we're doing something a little different.
- 1:27SPEAKER_00: This isn't a meditation or a visualization.
- 1:31SPEAKER_00: It's about creating a space for you to say things that you never got to say.
- 1:38SPEAKER_00: Maybe because the person you feel the urge to speak with is your ex or a parent or someone who's hurt you or someone you've loved deeply and lost.
- 1:51SPEAKER_00: Maybe someone who's no longer here.
- 1:54SPEAKER_00: Whoever's coming to mind as I'm speaking, I want you to trust that.
- 1:59SPEAKER_00: For the next few minutes, Tiffany, Joy, and I want you to imagine that you're sitting in a room with the three of us, and you've got this burning desire or urge to process something, to talk about something, to talk with someone that just doesn't seem accessible.
- 2:17SPEAKER_00: And I want you to imagine that we are tending to you in this moment.
- 2:23SPEAKER_00: One of us is maybe brushing your hair, and another is serving you a cup of tea, and there's just this space for you to say the things that it doesn't feel like you could access anywhere else.
- 2:34SPEAKER_00: The person you want to talk with may not be here in the physical, or maybe they won't understand, but you can understand, we can understand, it can be understood, it can be released in your body.
- 2:48SPEAKER_00: For so many women, healing gets stuck because there are thoughts, feelings, disappointments, grief, anger, questions, truths that don't have a place to land.
- 2:58SPEAKER_00: Maybe you've swallowed them, minimize them, convinced yourself they weren't important.
- 3:05SPEAKER_00: Maybe you spent years trying to be the bigger person.
- 3:09SPEAKER_00: But today you don't have to do any of that.
- 3:13SPEAKER_00: What you say doesn't have to be fair or right or understanding.
- 3:17SPEAKER_00: It just has to be honest and raw.
