188: Navigating Divorce, Anxiety, and Self-Trust: A Raw Conversation with Stacey Sherrell

What happens when the life you built no longer feels like home, and the decision to leave brings not just grief, but deep anxiety and self-doubt?

I’m joined by therapist and mom Stacey Sherrell for a raw, honest conversation about the emotional realities of divorce. We talk about what it really looks like to leave a long-term relationship while parenting, navigating anxiety, and trying to rediscover who you are outside of a relationship.

From the years of quiet inner conflict, to the overwhelming anxiety that followed her separation, Stacey shares her story with vulnerability, insight, and so much heart. Whether you’re in the thick of a hard decision or learning to trust yourself again after a major life shift, this episode will remind you that healing is messy, and that you’re not alone in it!

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why deciding to leave a marriage is often years in the making
  • How anxiety can show up even when you’re a mental health professional
  • The importance of rebuilding trust in yourself after a relationship ends
  • Ways to cope with the shame and self-doubt that follow divorce
  • Simple, powerful self-care habits to help you survive and thrive during hard times
