Welcome back to the Divorced AF Podcast for Episode 24, What If He Changes? In this powerful episode, Audrey dives into the emotional turbulence that can arise when an ex starts to “get it together”—after the decision to divorce has already been made. She shares a heartfelt client story and reflects on her own journey, inviting listeners to pause and consider how to navigate the uncertainty that can arise when someone from your past begins to show signs of change. This episode is for anyone who’s ever asked themselves, “Did I make the right decision?” and needs a reminder to trust themselves deeply.
Audrey opens by reflecting on the nearing milestone of 25 episodes and revisiting the core mission of the podcast: to create solace, community, and support for women navigating the often isolating journey of divorce. She encourages listeners to share the podcast with others who may be silently struggling, reminding us that healing often begins when we realize we’re not alone.
Audrey shares the story of a client who, despite being grounded in her decision to separate, finds herself questioning it as her ex begins to evolve—going to therapy, showing up more for their child, and seemingly transforming. Audrey offers perspective by reflecting on her own clarity during her divorce, noting that change, even when positive, doesn’t always mean reconciliation is the right move.
In a conversation centered around intuition, Audrey reminds her client—and all listeners—that gut instincts are often louder than logic. For this particular client, who is a sacral authority in Human Design, the gut is not just a feeling but a guide. Audrey warns that decisions made from a sense of guilt, duty, or people-pleasing tend to breed resentment and invites listeners to get quiet and listen to their bodies.
Audrey introduces Human Design as a powerful framework for understanding how to make aligned decisions. She shares resources like mybodygraph.com and highlights how different authorities (like sacral) can provide insight when facing difficult choices. The takeaway? Don’t make life-altering decisions based on what others want—make them from a place of personal truth.
When children are involved, the stakes feel even higher. Audrey encourages her client to keep the children out of the decision-making process until her own heart is clear. Transparency and emotional honesty matter, but so does shielding kids from confusion. Ultimately, parents must make the hard decisions so their children don’t have to.
Audrey reminds listeners that it’s okay to outgrow relationships. Just because someone is changing now doesn’t erase the past—or mean the future will be aligned. She emphasizes that many people have had multiple significant relationships and that divorce, though painful, can be a path to expansion rather than contraction.
"I know it’s hard when the person you once loved starts showing up differently, especially when you wished they had been that person all along. But your body knows. Your intuition knows. And I’m here to remind you: you don’t have to go backward just because it looks different now. Thank you for tuning in, for being part of this growing community, and for showing up for yourself. If this episode resonated with you, I’d love for you to leave a review and share it with a friend. You never know who needs it. Until next time—stay strong, stay honest, and stay Divorced AF."
