If you’re triggered when your kid starts echoing your ex—or even acting out patterns you’re desperate to leave behind—you’re not alone, and you don’t have to stay stuck in shame, guilt, or confusion.In this episode, you’ll discover why this emotional gut-punch is so common for co-parents and single moms, how your own triggers say more about your unhealed wounds than your child’s choices, and what to do in the moment to avoid projecting old pain onto your kid—while still holding healthy boundaries and compassion. You’ll also learn how to reframe these moments as powerful invitations to break the cycle, model emotional honesty, and create a more secure, attuned bond with your child.Listen now for real talk, practical healing tools, and some much-needed permission to feel it all—because navigating this pain can become one of the bravest, most transforming steps on your divorce recovery journey.Post Divorce Roadmap - 21 Days of Guided JournalingJoin The list for A Different D Word, our personalized healing program.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MyCoachDawnInstagram: (@dawnwiggins)Instagram: (@coachtiffini)On the Web: https://www.mycoachdawn.comA podcast exploring the journey of life after divorce, delving into topics like divorce grief, loneliness, anxiety, manifesting, the impact of different attachment styles and codependency, setting healthy boundaries, energy healing with homeopathy, managing the nervous system during divorce depression, understanding the stages of divorce grief, and using the Law of Attraction and EMDR therapy in the process of building your confidence, forgiveness and letting go.Support the showPost Divorce Road Map : 21 Days of Journaling Promo Code: MAGICDROP
