  • When Life Feels Unfinished: How to Find the Good That’s Already Here 16.09.2026 25мин
    What if you could love the chapter you’re in before everything is figured out?In this birthday reflection, Erica gets honest about what it feels like to reach another year when parts of life still feel unfinished. Instead of waiting for everything to fall perfectly into place, she explores how to become present enough to notice the good that’s already here—and how those small moments can completely change the way we experience a rebuild.Because sometimes the Gerber daisies are already on the table. We’re just too focused on what’s missing to see them.Key Themes & TakeawaysYou can't force gratitude. When life feels messy or unfinished, pretending everything is wonderful doesn’t help. Instead, get present enough to notice what’s actually here. The good may already be in front of you. Erica’s story about walking right past her favorite Gerber daisies becomes a powerful reminder that we can overlook the very things that bring us joy when we’re focused on everything that hasn’t happened yet.The rebuild doesn’t happen in a straight line. Erica breaks rebuilding into three phases: when everything sucks, when you stop fighting it, and the “wobble”—those intense highs and lows that can make you wonder if you’re moving backward.You can’t go backwards. The things that once grounded you may not feel the same forever because you’ve changed. The goal isn’t to recreate an old version of happiness; it’s to discover what brings you joy now.Celebrate the chapter you’re actually living. You don’t have to wait for the “hell yes” year. The unfinished years count, too. Showing up and doing the work when nothing feels complete is something worth celebrating.Small moments create momentum. A free birthday coffee. Dinner with friends. Flowers. A favorite dessert. A beautiful cloud. When you string enough of those moments together, life can begin to feel different—even before the big pieces change.🌟 Resources & LinksIf you are struggling to find the forward momentum, come join us in The Wild Woman. Each month you will be guided to find your inner truth through intention setting and a deep, somatic ritual. https://www.thecrazyexwivesclub.com/wildwoman✨ A Note From EricaNot every birthday is a hell yes. Not every year is a magical list of everything you dreamed would happen.But every chapter has the ability to surprise and delight you when you become present enough to let it.The Gerber daisies are already on the table. The cheesecake is in the fridge. The good is already here.You just have to slow down enough to let it land.If you’re in the middle of your own rebuild, don’t wait until everything is finished to celebrate yourself. You’re doing the work. You’re showing up. And that matters.If this episode resonated with you, subscribe, share it with someone who needs the reminder, and join The Club for more support as you navigate your own next chapter.

  • Astrology, Free Will & Finding Your Way Through Hard Seasons 02.09.2026 29мин

  • What Kind of Woman Will You Be After Divorce? 19.08.2026 23мин
    What if you could consciously uncouple—even when your ex refuses to participate? In this episode of The Crazy X Wives Club, Erica explores what it really means to move through divorce, co-parenting, grief, and conflict from a place of values instead of wounds.Drawing from a deeply triggering experience in Hawaii, Erica shares how she spiraled, processed the anger and grief, rewrote the story, and ultimately chose to take her power back. Because conscious uncoupling doesn't require two people. It only requires you.🔑 Key Themes & TakeawaysConscious uncoupling can be a choice you make alone. Your ex doesn't have to agree, participate, or even know that's what you're doing.Pause before you react. When you're triggered, give yourself space to feel everything before deciding what deserves to be said or done.Get the ugly truth out somewhere safe. Write it down, journal, or record a voice memo—but don't necessarily hand your rawest emotions to someone else and fuel the spiral.Rewrite the story without judgment. Once the emotion settles, challenge the assumptions, blame, and “us vs. them” thinking. Ask what is actually true and what your values would have you do instead.You can rise above without giving up your boundaries. Choosing compassion doesn't mean letting people walk all over you. You can hold your ground while responding from care rather than hurt.Put your child's well-being ahead of your personal pain. Co-parenting may require you to carry difficult emotions without allowing them to spill onto your child.Stop waiting for your ex to change. Your healing and your identity after divorce are not dependent on whether your ex apologizes, validates your perspective, or becomes a better person.Your rebirth has to become a priority. Healing means learning your own heart, understanding where your wounds came from, and intentionally rebuilding the life and identity you want.🌟 Resources & LinksThe New You Blueprint is a 90-minute guided experience designed to help you:Get clear on who you're becomingRelease grief that's still sitting in your bodyIdentify what needs to changeCreate a plan for rebuilding your lifeDecide what—and who—needs to come with you into your next chapterUse code FRIENDS for $100 off the New You Blueprint.https://www.thecrazyexwivesclub.com/blueprinthttps://www.thecrazyexwivesclub.com/blueprinthttps://www.thecrazyexwivesclub.com/blueprintConnect with Erica, take her freq quiz or submit an episode topic at www.thecrazyexwivesclub.com
  • 50/50 Custody: Is Equal Time Actually Best for Your Kids? 12.08.2026 20мин
    What if 50/50 custody isn’t always the same thing as doing what’s best for your kids? In this episode of The Crazy Ex-Wives Club, Erica gets real about custody arrangements, 2-2-3 schedules, transitions between homes, and the emotional toll divorce can take on children.After living through the realities of co-parenting herself, Erica shares why she ultimately chose a custody arrangement based less on what felt “fair” and more on what gave her son stability, predictability, and the support he actually needed.The goal isn’t to tell every family what their custody schedule should look like. It’s to help parents step back, put ego aside, and ask a harder question: What arrangement works best for my child?🔑 Key Themes & TakeawaysEqual time doesn’t automatically mean equal benefit. A 50/50 schedule may work beautifully for some families and create unnecessary stress for others.Reduce transitions when you can. Constantly moving between two homes can be difficult for young children. A predictable schedule with the same days each week may provide more stability.Make custody schedules predictable. A simple visual calendar can help children understand where they’ll be, what’s coming next, and when they’ll see each parent.Parenting time should reflect reality. If a parent consistently isn’t available during their scheduled time, it may be worth reconsidering whether the schedule actually serves the child.Separate what you want from what your child needs. Fighting for equal time because it feels fair is different from advocating for the arrangement that genuinely supports your child.Custody arrangements can evolve. What works for a toddler may not be what works for a school-age child or teenager. Keep paying attention to what your child needs in each season.Help kids through transitions instead of trying to eliminate their feelings. Give them language for the sadness, anger, or resistance that can come with moving between two homes.The quiet nights matter, too. Time away from your kids can be painful, but it can also become an opportunity to heal, rebuild your identity, and strengthen your internal authority.🌟 Resources & LinksIf the quiet nights feel too long, the emotions feel too big, or you’re struggling to find yourself after divorce, The Wild Woman is a monthly container designed to help you rebuild your relationship with yourself and develop your internal authority.https://www.thecrazyexwivesclub.com/wildwoman
