S1 E26: Rebuilding Self-Esteem After Divorce
In this episode of Grab Your Light, Lauren reflects on the impact divorce can have on self-esteem, including feelings of shame, embarrassment, and self-doubt that often surface quietly but persistently. Drawing from her own experience, she explores how these emotions can shape identity and self-perception during and after a relationship ends.
This conversation centers on compassion and reconnection: resisting isolation, understanding where diminished self-worth originates, and allowing confidence to rebuild slowly and honestly. Rather than pushing for immediate self-assurance, this episode acknowledges that healing self-esteem is a process — one that involves patience, support, and intentional self-reflection.
This episode continues the Season 1 exploration of emotional recovery, offering reassurance that loss of confidence does not mean loss of value and that self-worth can be reclaimed with care.
