THE RE:STARTACADEMY
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 STANDARDS AFTER DIVORCE MAKES YOU "UNDATEABLE"(GOOD)
Why Your Standards After Divorce Make You 'Undateable' (Good)
"You're too picky." "You need to lower your expectations." "You're not getting any younger." Sound familiar? If you're getting pressure to settle for less than you deserve just because you're divorced, this episode is for you.
In this empowering conversation, I'm flipping the script on the criticism divorced women get for having standards. Spoiler alert: if having standards makes you "undateable" to men who can't meet them, then congratulations - your standards are working exactly as they should.
You'll discover:
- Why your post-divorce standards aren't "too high" - they're hard-earned wisdom from lived experience
- The difference between having standards and having unrealistic expectations (and why most divorced women actually have very reasonable requirements)
- Why society is so uncomfortable with women who know what they want and aren't afraid to ask for it
- How your divorce taught you what you absolutely won't accept again (and why that's beautiful, not bitter)
- The myth that desperation is attractive and why confidence is what actually draws quality people
- Why being "undateable" to the wrong men is the best filter system you could ask for
- The pressure to settle because of age, kids, or "limited options" (and why that's garbage)
- How your standards protect you from repeating past mistakes and keep you available for someone worthy
- What reasonable post-divorce standards actually look like in real life
- Why the right person will appreciate your selectiveness instead of asking you to lower your bar
If you've been made to feel like you're asking for too much, being unrealistic, or that you should be grateful for any attention you get, this episode will remind you that you deserve to be treated well - and that refusing to settle is actually a superpower.
sit back, relax and enjoy!
