Summary

Lydia left her abusive husband. Then she came back. She found the guts to leave him again. And returned another time. In the end, it took SEVEN times for her to get free. If you've been there or if you're wondering whether you'll ever get out too, she's laying it all on the table in this episode. The BEST PART? She's thriving. And she's no longer ashamed of her past. In this raw look at Lydia’s story: - The FOUR reasons that kept her from leaving for good - How she conquered the shame over her broken marriage - Why it was better for her kids to grow up with just one parent - The Bible verse that set her free from condemnation over her divorce - What punching and floating have to do with the divorce/rebuilding process - Why sexual loneliness is a valid concern when you become single (and how she handled it) Listen or download the transcript at flyingfreenow.com/142 FREE: I'll send you the first chapter of my book, Is It Me?
