You escaped one cage (your marriage) only to find yourself trapped in another.
If you're using language like "I have to," "I should," or "I can't because..." you're living behind invisible barsāand you may not even realize it.
After divorce, many women trade one prison for another. Instead of feeling the freedom they expected, they're caged by loneliness, fear, shame, and the constant loop of "what if I messed up?"
In this episode, Julie uses the metaphor of caged tigers to reveal how you might be pacing in circles, waiting for someone else to unlock your prisonāwhen in reality you have the power to get the combination and unlock the cage yourself.
Your cage can become your sanctuary instead of your prison, opening your life to new experiences and amazing new relationshipābut only when you choose to hold the combination to the lock.
Ready to stop pacing and start playing? Listen now.
