In this bonus episode of Bent Not Broken, Coach Deborah revisits the most powerful moments from her conversation with award-winning author and survivor Mia J. Hanks, whose memoir Bridemaid reveals the hidden reality of her nearly 30-year marriage to a covert narcissist.

This episode is about starting over after trauma, healing from gaslighting, divorce and healing, and rebuilding life after divorce. Through Mia’s story, you’ll learn how to recognize control masked as love, trust your body’s warnings, and find the courage for post-divorce healing, emotional recovery, and new beginnings after divorce.

If you’re feeling broken, navigating separation, or searching for hope after heartbreak, this episode offers guidance for divorce recovery, reclaiming your life, and becoming stronger than divorce.

You may be bent — but you are never broken.
