{"type":"rich","version":"1.0","title":"He Mentioned Disneyland and I Immediately Needed Therapy","description":"I survived heartbreak. I survived separation. I survived becoming a single mom.\n\nSo why did one innocent suggestion about Disneyland send me into a full-blown emotional crisis?\n\nIn this episode of Unicorns Do Exist, I'm sharing a realization I never expected to have: dating isn't the scary part anymore. Flirting? Fine. First dates? Easy. Butterflies? Bring them on.\n\nBut the moment someone wants to be part of my son's world, my fight-or-flight response is activated.\n\nWe're diving into the realities of dating as a single mom, the fear of introducing someone to your child, and why building a future with someone can feel scarier than surviving a breakup. I also explore growing up without examples of healthy blended families, learning to trust after heartbreak, and the uncomfortable question many of us avoid:\n\nAm I protecting my son... or am I protecting myself?\n\nIf you've ever rebuilt your life after divorce, struggled with vulnerability, or found yourself pushing away good people because getting close feels terrifying, this episode is for you.\n\nBecause sometimes healing isn't learning how to be alone.\n\nSometimes healing is learning how to let someone stay.\n\n🎙️ In this episode:\n\n Dating after divorce as a single mom\n When to introduce someone to your child\n Fear of commitment and vulnerability\n Healthy boundaries vs emotional walls\n Blended families and rebuilding trust\n Letting go of survival mode\n Learning to receive love again\n\nWhether you're navigating single motherhood, healing from heartbreak, or wondering if you're sabotaging your own happiness, grab your coffee, your emotional support snack, and let's unpack it together.\n\nBecause apparently...\n\nI survived divorce. Disneyland is what almost took me out. 🏰💀🦄\n 🎧 Subscribe to Unicorns Do Exist  (https://www.instagram.com/unicornsdoexistpod?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr) for honest conversations about relationships, dating, personal growth, healing, mental health, self-discovery, motherhood, and creating a life you love after heartbreak.","author_name":"Unicorns Do Exist","author_url":"https://audioboom.com/channels/5162130-unicorns-do-exist","provider_name":"Audioboom","provider_url":"https://audioboom.com","width":480,"height":95,"thumbnail_url":"https://audioboom.com/i/43704659/600x600/c","thumbnail_width":600,"thumbnail_height":600,"html":""}
