In this episode of Goddess in Training, I’m joined by Mónica Fernandes, writer of The Goddess Journal and creator of The Goddess Method, a framework for women rebuilding after divorce. We talk about heartbreak recovery, identity loss, nervous system “noise,” and why healing can’t be rushed—only honored. Monica shares her concept of a healing ladder (baby steps), why self-care isn’t selfish—it’s strategy, and how reclaiming your relationship with money can become one of the most liberating parts of the journey.

In this conversation, we explore:

* Why divorce can feel like a loss of identity (and why that’s normal)

* The “bathroom floor” moments—and how to meet them with compassion

* Mónica’s healing ladder: small steps that rebuild the self without overwhelm

* Aphrodite, the divine feminine, and self-care as a strategic act of devotion

* Loneliness, stigma, and why people don’t always know how to show up

* The financial aftershocks of divorce—and the empowerment on the other side

* Why time is your friend (even when you want a fast-forward button)

* The role of sisterhood: soul sisters, therapy, and finding support that holds you
