The Restart Academy Podcast: Your Safe Space for the Real Conversations About Divorce Recovery
This podcast is for divorced women who are rebuilding their lives after devastating divorces. If you've been searching for a place where you can finally have the real conversations - the controversial ones, the embarrassing questions, the messy truths about what it's actually like to heal and rebuild after your marriage ends - you've found your safe space.
Hosted by Temi Samuel, a wellness coach who went through her own devastating divorce over a decade ago, The Restart Academy Podcast tackles the topics others won't touch. This isn't your typical "everything happens for a reason" divorce advice. This is honest, unfiltered truth about what divorce recovery actually looks like.
What makes this podcast different: We don't do toxic positivity or surface-level advice. We dive deep into the controversial conversations - why you might feel relief after divorce, why "taking the high road" is often toxic advice, why some women never fully recover, and all those thoughts you've had but felt too ashamed to say out loud.
Perfect for divorced women who:
- Feel isolated in their divorce experience and crave real conversation
- Are tired of advice that doesn't address what they actually went through
- Need permission to feel ALL their emotions without judgment
- Want practical guidance from someone who truly understands their journey
- Are ready to stop just surviving and start thriving in their restart
Whether you're newly divorced, years into healing, or somewhere in between, Temi creates a judgment-free zone where you can drop the mask and process your real experience. Each episode gives you permission to be human, to have complex feelings, and to prioritize your own healing journey.

THE SHAME OF ADMITTING YOUR MARRIAGE WAS A LIE FROM THE START
In this episode of The Restart Academy Podcast, I'm talking about the devastating realization that your marriage might have been built on lies from the very beginning - and the crushing shame that comes with admitting it.
If you've ever looked back at your wedding photos and thought "Oh my God, he was lying to me even then," or realized that the person you married was performing a character that never actually existed, this episode is for you.
I'm Temi Samuel, and I've been exactly where you are. As a wellness coach who went through my own devastating divorce over a decade ago, I know what it's like to discover that what you thought was love was actually manipulation, deception, or exploitation disguised as partnership.
🎧 In this episode, we dive deep into:
- The different types of lies that marriages can be built on
- Why you couldn't have seen the signs (and why that's not your fault)
- The unique grief of losing not just your future, but your past
- How to stop the shame spiral and rewrite your story
- Why your capacity for authentic love isn't something to be ashamed of
This isn't just another episode about "red flags" - this is about the complex reality of discovering that your entire understanding of your marriage was wrong, and how to heal from that specific kind of trauma.
You're not stupid. You're not gullible. You're not weak. You were human being a loving woman , loving authentically while someone else was living a lie!
