258. Your Nervous System Has Been Waiting for This Moment Since the Day Your World Changed

When divorce shatters your world, your nervous system doesn’t forget—it waits. And when it finally feels safe, the real healing begins.

You’ll Learn

• Why your body holds onto trauma long after divorce papers are signed.
• The signs your nervous system is ready to release.
• Tools to help your body feel safe enough to heal.

and discover tools that help your body remember its power to heal.

Divorce may be behind you, but your body still remembers the shock, the grief, and the fear. In this episode, I explore how the nervous system stores trauma, why it waits until safety is present, and what happens when your body finally exhales. Healing isn’t about rushing forward—it’s about allowing your system to release what it’s been holding since everything changed.

 Your nervous system holds the key to deep healing after divorce.
