Divorce isn’t always a failure. Sometimes, it’s the most loving thing we can do for ourselves.
In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Her Time Therapy clinician Kimberly joins Meagan to share her journey through a marriage that looked perfect on paper—but left her feeling lost, silenced, and disconnected from her true self.

Together, they unpack how divorce became Kimberly’s turning point—not just an end, but a beginning. She opens up about the moment she realized she had never actually known herself, the red flags she once brushed aside, and the slow, often painful process of rebuilding a relationship with her own voice, values, and identity.

Whether you’ve questioned your worth in a relationship, struggled to define your needs, or felt the pressure to stay in something that doesn’t feel right, this episode is for you.

Topics we cover:

• Why self-trust is essential in relationships
• Recognizing subtle forms of control and verbal abuse
• The impact of religion, shame, and mixed messages
• Rebuilding after divorce and choosing authenticity over approval
• How Kimberly’s story shapes her work as a therapist today

“Even standing still was progress. Because at least I wasn’t moving backward.”
