Ep31: Divorce, self-awareness, and rewriting the rules of modern relationships
This one is for anyone who's ever asked: Is this all there is?
Renee Arseneau shares her journey from the structured world of corporate accounting to the raw process of personal reinvention. After walking through divorce and a full life reset, she now guides women through the same threshold she once faced—into relationships rooted in self-awareness, real connection, and inner truth.
This episode touches the deep stuff: love, communication, emotional intelligence, and how modern culture is reshaping the way we show up in partnership.
What’s in this episode:
- Why Renee left her CPA career and what came next
- The real grief behind divorce (and why it’s not failure)
- Relationship patterns, emotional reactivity, and growth
- How to create intimacy through conflict and curiosity
- Unlearning expectations around gender and love roles
- The quiet power of self-reflection in relational healing
- Navigating dating, friendship, and the blurry lines in between
- The impact of social media on modern love and attention
- Understanding and honoring love languages
- What it means to stay with yourself in connection
If you’ve ever felt like love is slipping through your fingers—or that you’re the common denominator in your relationship patterns—this one might just open a door.
