Episode Description
Why does jealousy show up after divorce—even when you don’t want your ex back? And why does envy hit so hard when you see other couples, families, or friends with the life you thought you’d have?
In this episode of The Empowered Divorce Podcast, I’m unpacking jealousy and envy through the lens of betrayal trauma and divorce recovery. These emotions aren’t proof that you’re failing at healing—they’re actually signals pointing to unmet needs, hidden longings, and places where your worth feels shaky.
You’ll learn:
The difference between jealousy and envy (and why they both intensify after betrayal and divorce).
How jealousy is tied to fear of being replaced or left behind.
Why envy often reveals the deep desires for love, safety, and security you thought you had.
The compassionate way to respond to these emotions so you don’t get stuck in shame.
Practical steps to move through jealousy and envy with awareness, acceptance, and agency.
