Pamela shares her painful journey—from childhood abuse and emotional wounds to infidelity, escapist marriage, and the grief of realizing her divorce caused emotional harm to her children. They explore how divorce affects kids regardless of age or circumstance, including anxiety, sadness, divided loyalty, time loss, and the burden of going back and forth between homes. Drawing on her work in supervised visitation, Pamela explains how even in dangerous or toxic marriages, children still grieve the absence of a parent and carry long-term emotional scars. Dr. Foojan expands the conversation to include both spiritual healing and psychological self-examination, highlighting how unhealed trauma, unmet expectations, and lack of accountability often drive couples to divorce instead of growth. They discuss how surrounding yourself with the right role models—those who repaired their marriages, not just those who left—shapes the path you take. Pamela describes her spiritual awakening during divorce, realizing she never brought God—or any form of higher accountability—into her marriage. She shares how writing Soul Custody allowed her to heal, reconnect with her daughters, and even receive unexpected forgiveness from her ex-husband. This episode is a powerful guide for anyone facing marital struggles, healing childhood wounds, or seeking to spare their children from avoidable trauma. It is filled with truth, vulnerability, and the wisdom gained from looking deeply within. 🔖 HASHTAGS & KEYWORDS #DivorceHealing #CoParenting #SoulCustody #PamelaHenry #DrFoojan #InnerVoicePodcast #ChildhoodTrauma #SupervisedVisitation #MarriageAdvice #FaithAndHealing #ParentingThroughDivorce #EmotionalHealing #FamilyTherapy #AwarenessIntegration #DivorceRegret

She speaks candidly about her struggle with chronic Lyme disease and the limitations she encountered within Western medicine—challenges that ultimately inspired her to explore deeper truths about meaning, resilience, and human experience. This quest led her to interview 60 wise adults and publish her influential book, Common Wisdom: 8 Scientific Elements of the Meaningful Life. ⭐ Elements of Wisdom Research Dr. Laura breaks down the eight core elements of wisdom—highlighting essential qualities such as resilience, kindness, and positivity. Through vulnerable personal stories of losing her home, battling chronic illness, and rebuilding her life, she illustrates how resilience strengthens our emotional core.

These interconnected wisdom elements help individuals navigate challenges with clarity, courage, and hope. ⭐ Understanding Spirituality Beyond Religiosity Dr. Laura offers meaningful insights into spirituality, describing it as a deeply personal experience that goes beyond traditional religiosity. Coming from a scientific background, writing about spirituality challenged her—but ultimately helped her understand its role in connection, healing, intuition, and making sense of experiences that science cannot fully explain. Dr. Foojan highlights how spirituality aligns with curiosity, openness, and inner exploration, allowing us to expand our awareness and sense of meaning. ⭐ Foundations of Growth and Harmony This insightful conversation also explores curiosity, humility, tolerance, and creativity as essential foundations of personal growth and social harmony. Dr. Laura and Dr. Foojan discuss how humility fosters deeper connection, how tolerance helps us overcome biases, and how creativity exists in every person—even if expressed in different ways. They envision a world where diversity is not merely tolerated but honored and celebrated with genuine appreciation. ⭐ Common Wisdom Journal Overview Dr. Laura introduces the Common Wisdom Journal, designed to guide readers through moral reflection questions and chapter summaries that enhance understanding of each wisdom element.
