Episode 236 - Rising After Divorce For A 10\/10 Life

Welcome to this episode of The D Shift: Redefining Divorce And Beyond. Today, host Mardi Winder welcomes life coach and spark-restorer for women, Megan Bunnell, to share her powerful journey of rebuilding life after divorce and trauma. Megan opens up about navigating the aftermath of an abusive relationship, facing deep grief and an identity crisis, and finding her way to a "10 out of 10" life.

Through candid conversation, Megan explains how women—especially high-achieving and accomplished ones—often hide their struggles, and how acknowledging where you are is the first step to rising after divorce. She offers practical advice on self-love, rewriting your inner narrative, and intentionally laying the groundwork for a fulfilling new chapter.

Whether you’re just out of a relationship or looking to redefine your own happiness, this episode is filled with inspiration, actionable strategies, and hope for anyone refusing to stay broken after adversity. Plus, you’ll hear about Megans “Unstoppable You Assessment” and tools to help you start living your best life today.

Tune in for genuine insight, encouragement, and the reminder that transformation is not only possible, it begins with loving yourself and taking one small step forward each day.

About the Guest:

Megan Bunnell is a life coach, speaker, and unapologetic spark-restorer for women who refuse to stay broken after divorce. A former teacher and corporate professional, Megan rebuilt her life after an emotionally abusive marriage, deep grief, and a complete identity unraveling.

Now, as the founder of Tantalum Coaching and host of the Empowered & Unstoppable podcast, she helps high-achieving women stop merely “coping” and start creating 10/10 lives they’re obsessed with waking up to. Equal parts science nerd, straight-talking best friend, and bulldog with a heart of gold, Megan blends thought and emotional management with brutally honest self-reflection to help women rise stronger, softer, and more powerful than ever. Her message is simple: your past may explain you, but it does not define your future.
