Cheaper Than Therapy with Vanessa and Dené

Ep: 176 Coaching Session: From Self-Abandonment to Self-Acceptance

Jul 28, 2023

In this Cheaper than Therapy coaching session, we sat down with Claire as she unravels the intricacies that come along with the end of a marriage. Claire's internal struggle echoes the question that many women are confronted with: what does it mean, as a woman, to end a relationship and find our true sense of Self within our patriarchy-based societal norms and expectations?


🌟 Big Takeaways from this Episode:

  • Tangled Societal Norms: We delve into societal expectations of women, and the paradox we face between individual desires and collective demands centered in codependency. Do we really need to exist in a tolerable level of permanent unhappiness, specifically in relationships?
  • Unveiling a Sense of Self:A relationship’s end brings an opportunity to trust yourself as you lean in to the reintroduction to your true sense of self, while simultaneously owning that our codependency invites self-abandonment. Acknowledging personal wants is not selfish, and we are worthy as is.
  • Sacred Solitude: Finding acceptance that we may walk through life’s fires without support or guidance, and how that trust in yourself can lead to spiritual epiphanies.


Our candid conversation with Claire aims to inspire and assure that even amidst the chaos of unraveling relationships, finding one's true self is the ultimate gift.
