How do you navigate the emotional upheaval of significant life changes while caring for your own health and well-being? This week on Awaken Wild One, I, Trish Stanford, share the heart-wrenching experience of my son leaving for the Army and the surprising ways my body reacted to such stress, from cold sores to overwhelming nausea. Amidst this turmoil, I found solace in self-compassion and allowed myself the grace to recover at my own pace. I also open up about my recent journey through a paniculectomy, reflecting on how this surgery has reshaped more than just my self-image, following my significant weight loss and the physical transformations of motherhood.

As I recount these pivotal moments, I delve into the tricky terrain of relationships during recovery, especially when my partner chose this vulnerable time to express intense feelings. While I acknowledge his growth, uncertainty looms over his understanding of love. This episode doesn't provide all the answers but instead invites you to ponder the authenticity of love and the complexity of healing from narcissistic abuse. Join me on this reflective journey, as we explore the intricacies of emotional resilience and the hope for a brighter future, promising more discussions and insights in future episodes.
