    TW: domestic abuse, gaslighting, self harm.


    'If I'm focusing on the past, I'm depressed because I'm focusing on what has been. If I'm focusing on the future then I'm anxious because I'm trying to get somewhere. Both are an inability to be present".


    Samantha is joined by Vanessa Louise, an emotional health coach. The two discuss the process of leaving an unhealthy relationship, the power of love and 'unlovely' choices.

    "Look, divorce isn't a picnic. It's not fun times...But the chances are the reason that you're finding it tough is that it's bringing up stuff from your past that you haven't fully dealt with".


    This week Sam is joined by Divorce Coach Fiona Kimbell. She shares her experience of navigating a lengthy divorce and the feeling of liberation after the initial stages of heartbreak. We also hear how she now supports other women through their own separations.
