THE UNCOMFORTABLE TRUTH: WHY YOU MIGHT NEVER TRUST MEN AGAIN AFTER DIVORCE

Send us a text

In this episode of The Restart Academy Podcast, I'm talking about the uncomfortable reality that you might never trust men the way you used to after divorce - and why that's actually okay.

If you've ever felt exhausted scrolling through dating apps before even starting, heard a man's promises and automatically thought "yeah, right," or felt guilty for not being able to take compliments at face value anymore, this episode is for you.

I'm Temi Samuel, and as a wellness coach who went through my own devastating divorce over a decade ago, I understand what it's like when your protective mechanisms kick in and everyone calls them "trust issues" like they're something broken that needs fixing.

🎧 In this episode, we dive deep into:

• Why your caution around men is actually intelligent, not damaged
• The difference between blind trust and wise trust
• How to spot the difference between the right man and the wrong man based on their reaction to your boundaries
• Why "not all men are like your ex" misses the point entirely
• How to embrace evolved trust instead of trying to go back to naive trust

This isn't another episode telling you to "put yourself out there" or "give men a chance." This is about giving yourself permission to trust differently, love differently, and approach relationships with the wisdom you've earned.

Your caution isn't a bug in your system - it's a feature. Your protective instincts aren't keeping you from love - they're protecting you from the wrong kind of love.
