Liz McHutcheon joins Wendy the day after finalizing her divorce to share what freedom feels like when you finally stop dimming your light. After 30 years of marriage and a transformative walk on the Camino, Liz dressed like a queen, walked into court, and claimed her wings. This is a conversation about the raw, beautiful, and messy process of choosing yourself.
They explore:
- How the Camino prepared Liz for the most important ending of her life
- Why compromise can be the first step toward self-abandonment
- The tools and practices that carried them through divorce
