Still think being called the "crazy ex-wife" is an insult? Not around here. In this soul-shifting solo episode, host Erica celebrates 2 years, 99 episodes, and the start of Season 9 by reclaiming what “crazy” really means—and how it might just be your emotional superpower.
Erica shares the messy, magical truth about navigating big emotions during divorce, learning how to stop outsourcing your happiness, and why society never taught us what to do with our feelings. Spoiler: screaming on the floor is sometimes part of the process (and she’s not judging).
She gets personal, breaking down the emotional rollercoaster of heartbreak, the grief of letting go, and the empowerment that comes from taking your healing seriously. You’ll also get a sneak peek into what’s coming this season, how you can co-create it with her, and why “The Club” isn’t just a membership—it’s a movement.
Whether you’re sobbing in your car post-drop-off or quietly wondering how you got here, this episode is your reminder that you’re not crazy, you’re just becoming.
