This week on The Healing Project Podcast, we bring you an extraordinary story of determination, hope, and healing. Sarah joins us to share her journey of walking away from an unhealthy marriage, navigating the crushing pain of parental alienation, and choosing to stay sober for over 20 years after using alcohol to cope with the weight of her circumstances.

This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt stuck, alone, or convinced that life will never get better. Sarah’s story is living proof that even after the darkest heartbreaks, it’s possible to rebuild, to reclaim your peace, and to find joy again. Her strength and resilience are a powerful reminder that healing isn’t linear—but it is possible.

💬 "If you're looking for some hope, listen to Sarah's story."

We talk about:

• How she found the courage to rebuild after her marriage ended
• What her relationship with alcohol looked like and how she changed it
• The grief of losing connection with her children, and the slow, painful path back to her daughter
• The small, stubborn choices that helped her keep moving forward, even on the hardest days

This episode is raw, real, and full of hope. Whether you're in the thick of something heavy or on your own healing journey, Sarah's voice is the reminder we all need: You can survive, and even thrive, after life falls apart.

Starting over? Back in the dating game? Or just wanting to try something new? Whether it’s been months or years since your last “first date,” this fun-sized episode is your warm, wise reminder that you’re not alone—and you’re not doing it wrong.

We’re talking about the sneaky things we forget when we’re dating again: the pressure to be someone we're not, the way we can gaslight ourselves out of red flags, and that weird desire to “just be chill” (even when your gut says run). This one’s part pep talk, part permission slip, and fully infused with honesty, dry humor, and a whole lot of compassion.

In this bite-sized episode, we cover:
💡 Why you have the right to decide who takes up space in your life
🚩 Why it's ok if you feel like you're "falling apart"
💬 The messages from your gut that you should trust
🧠 How the brokenhearted are the bravest amongst us

If you’re:

• Wondering if you’re “ready”
• Comparing your journey to everyone else’s
• Trying not to freak out (again)
  This episode is for you.
