In this episode, I sit down with Jenn Todling, a remarkable woman who shares her journey of escaping a toxic marriage and rediscovering herself. Jenn's story is a testament to the strength it takes to break free from an unhealthy situation and the beauty of embracing a life filled with authenticity and joy.

Jenn takes us through her experiences of feeling trapped in a marriage marked by volatility and chronic illness, and how a simple question in a book became the catalyst for her transformation. She shares the challenges she faced in believing she could leave, and how therapy and self-reflection helped her find the courage to start anew.

Key Insights:

• The impact of staying in a situation that doesn't serve your well-being
• How guilt and shame can keep us tethered to unhealthy relationships
• The importance of trusting your intuition and setting boundaries
• Rediscovering passions and interests after leaving a toxic situation
• The healing power of travel, creativity, and self-exploration

Jenn's story offers hope and inspiration for anyone feeling stuck in a relationship or life situation that no longer aligns with their true self. Her journey from feeling trapped to creating a life filled with purpose and joy is a powerful reminder that it's never too late to choose happiness and authenticity.

Whether you're contemplating a major life change, working on setting healthier boundaries, or simply looking to live with more intention, this conversation provides valuable insights into the human experience of growth, resilience, and self-discovery.
