What if the life you’ve been living no longer aligns with your values? Would you have the courage to reinvent yourself and start over?
Mental strength isn’t just about enduring a painful situation—it’s about knowing when to let go and create a life that truly fulfills you.
In this episode of Mentally Stronger, I sit down with Christine Brown Woolley, star of TLC’s Sister Wives and author of the new book Sister Wife. Christine shares what helped her find the courage to leave a 25-year polygamous marriage and build a new life.
From navigating complex family dynamics to embracing a new definition of mental strength, Christine’s story is a powerful reminder that change is possible at any stage of life.
Some of the things we talk about are:
How Christine's values and beliefs changed.
How she found the courage to leave a 25-year marriage and start over.
How Christine's definition of strength changed over time.
How she started building confidence.
The role of faith, family, and personal values in her transformation.
Why hard conversations and setting boundaries are essential for growth.
The daily habits and strategies she uses to stay grounded, creative, and mentally strong.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in a life that no longer serves you, this episode will inspire you to take charge, embrace change, and build a life that aligns with your values.
