Overcoming Relationship Trauma with Kayla

April 09, 2025 • Debbie Mink & Jamie Roseman • Season 6 • Episode 24

In this episode of Talking Smack 415, Jamie the Great and I chat with Kayla, an amazing single mom who’s turned her heartbreak into a powerful story of healing and growth. After catching her long time partner and father of her child cheating, Kayla embarked on a journey to heal from relationship trauma and rediscover herself.

We dive into:

The red flags she ignored and what she learned from them
How she transformed her childhood trauma into a source of strength
Reparenting her inner child—a game-changer for her healing
Rediscovering herself beyond motherhood
Embracing her superpowers—resilience, empathy & caring
Dating again —how she’s navigating healthy relationships
And how Stoicism’s theory—“the obstacle is the way”—helped shape her mindset

If you know someone who’s: a new mom, newly single, or just looking for inspiration to rediscover themselves, share this episode! Kayla’s story is a reminder that healing is fun, is a process, and starts from within.

Here are some resources Kayla recommends to help you heal:
