Rekindling Dreams After Divorce: A Midlife Journey with Angie Bergen

In this episode, I’m joined by Angie Bergen, a passionate Life Coach on a mission. She specializes in reigniting the faded dreams of middle-of-life women, breathing fresh life into their aspirations. She is a Medical Intuitive who taps into the world of energy healing. A self-professed personal development geek, Angie always has her nose in a book, enrolling in courses and soaking in the wisdom of retreats. She firmly believes age is just a number when it comes to learning and growth.

She lives in sunny Las Vegas, NV, where she and her miniature Dachshund sidekick, Khloe, enjoy life. When the heat's not scorching, you'll find her happily tending to her yard, creating a cozy oasis of green. Angie's journey is one of inspiring others, nurturing dreams, and embracing the journey of self-discovery. Her magic lies in helping women break free from the mundane and embrace their passions, painting their futures with vibrant hues.

Today, Angie shares her personal story of leaving a 24-year marriage to a narcissist and how she rebuilt her life. She discusses the challenges of recognizing red flags, leaving controlling relationships, and dreaming again after such experiences. We also explore the importance of self-worth and self-compassion, therapy, and support systems in making major life changes. Angie also talks about the journals and courses she has created to help other women envision a new future.

Quotes:
•If it comes to mind, just write it down. You don't have to know the how. You just have to dream.
•I wanna dream again. I don't know why I'm saying that, but I just haven't dreamt because I had many dreams. Except that he would go, no, you can't really dream that.
•Whose thoughts are you thinking? Because you can't always believe the thoughts that you have because they could totally be somebody else's.
•Just because someone says it about us doesn't mean it's true.
•You deserve to heal. It was not your fault. And you are worthy of love and a life where you are not miserable.
•Your mess becomes your message.
