By: Amie Woolsey Certified Brainspotting Practitioner PCC APSATS-CPC ELI-MP C-DGS
  • Summary

  • When you have experienced CPTSD due to your partner's infidelity, addiction and abusive behaviors, it's chipped away at your sense of empowerment. Divorce is hard enough, but divorcing after betrayal, abuse and a narcissist is another level of hard. I help women navigate divorce from a place of empowerment, dignity and strength. Learn tools to practice each week, hear from other women & professionals to help you feel supported along your healing journey. Divorce after betrayal doesn't have to be the story of your life, YOU create the story and are the chooser in it. Because You Can!

    Jan 16 2025
    In this follow up episode, I delve into the psychological and emotional dimensions of three financial principles discussed with Jenny in a previous episode: the 'more is better' rule, the 'now is better than later' rule, and the concept that resources are limited, thus requiring trade-offs. I will explain how these principles can be applied to understanding trauma, abuse, and divorce, and how they relate to the healing journey. The episode also highlights the importance of awareness and acceptance in managing triggers and cultivating a healthy relationship with oneself and others. 00:00 Introduction and Bonus Episode Announcement 00:41 Psychological and Emotional Aspects of Money Principles 01:37 The 'More is Better' Rule and Its Impact on Healing 05:06 The 'Now is Better Than Later' Principle in Healing 09:44 The 'Resources are Limited' Principle and Control 12:50 Applying Money Principles to Healing and Relationships 14:17 Holiday Triggers and Managing Them 14:57 Conclusion and Trigger Kit Announcement DATING FROM WITHIN WORKSHOP: January 25th-27th learn how to date yourself, connect back towards YOU and love yourself FIRST!
