In this Bent Not Broken bonus episode, Coach Deborah reflects on her inspiring conversation with Wendy Babcock, a woman who turned emotional abuse and divorce into a story of strength and purpose.

Recognizing the Invisible Wounds Emotional abuse often hides behind concern. Ask yourself: Do I feel free — or monitored? Awareness is the first step toward healing.🕊️ 2. Redefining Freedom After Divorce Freedom may not feel joyful at first, but it begins in small acts — choosing what brings you peace and learning to trust yourself again.✍️ 3. Reclaiming the Pen Take your story back. Start journaling with: “When everything changed for me was when…” Writing turns pain into clarity and growth.💬 4. From Surviving to Speaking Wendy’s movement, When Stories, proves that sharing your truth can set you free. Speak your story safely — with a trusted friend, therapist, or your own journal.🌻 5. The Power of Listening Healing happens when you listen with compassion — especially to yourself. Replace self-criticism with truth: You are enough. You are healing. You are free.💖 Closing Reflection You don’t need to have it all figured out to begin again.
