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.

WHY YOUR FAMILY'S REACTION TO YOUR DIVORCE REVEALED WHO THEY ARE!
Going through divorce is hard enough, but what happens when the people who are supposed to have your back - your own family - end up disappointing or even betraying you when you need them most?
In this episode, I'm diving into one of the most painful aspects of divorce that nobody talks about: how your family's reaction to your divorce likely revealed truths about who they really are that you weren't prepared to see.
You'll hear about:
- The different types of toxic family reactions (from the "blame the woman" family to the "keep the peace at all costs" family)
- Why your family's poor reaction didn't create new problems - it revealed problems that were always there
- How gender dynamics and family roles influence who gets supported and who gets blamed
- The secondary trauma of losing family support when you're already vulnerable
- Why some family members choose your ex over you (and what that really means)
- How to process the grief of realizing your family isn't who you thought they were
- Setting boundaries with family members who proved they can't be trusted with your well-being
- The power of building chosen family relationships that actually support you
If you've been dealing with family members who questioned your decision, took your ex's side, or abandoned you during your divorce, this episode will help you understand that their behavior says everything about them and nothing about your worth.
This episode is for you if:
- Your family didn't support you the way you expected during your divorce
- You're struggling with family members who maintained relationships with your ex
- You feel like you lost not just your marriage but your family too
- You're questioning whether you're asking for too much by expecting family support
- You need validation that your family's reaction was about them, not you!
Let's dive in.
