WOW Love Light Inspire the podcast
Are you a woman navigating life after divorce, toxic relationships, emotional abuse, or simply the weight of always putting everyone else first? Do you find yourself asking: Who am I now? What do I want? And how do I even begin to rebuild my life?
Welcome to WOW – Love Light Inspire, the podcast where we dive deep into the real stuff—healing, self-worth, emotional freedom, and what it means to rise after life knocks you down.
I’m your host, Lorene Roberts—Counsellor, Root Cause Therapist, program creator, emotional abuse survivor, author, mother, grandmother, and passionate change-maker for women ready to reclaim their power.
In each episode, I bring you honest, soul-stirring conversations about:
- Healing after divorce and toxic relationships
- Understanding trauma and how it shows up in everyday life
- Breaking free from limiting beliefs and people-pleasing
- Rebuilding self-worth, identity, and emotional strength
- The messy, magical journey of becoming YOU again
Occasionally, I sit down with other women who’ve lived through the fire and come out the other side—with wisdom to share and stories that remind us we’re never alone.
Whether you’re starting over, seeking emotional freedom, or simply ready to stop living small, this podcast is for you.
Expect truth. Expect depth. Expect heart.
No fluff. No sugar-coating. Just raw, powerful insight to support your healing and growth.
✨ You’re not broken—you’re becoming. Let’s walk this together.

Finance for Women - Where to start | Juliann Gumulak
Lorene Roberts speaks to this week’s inspirational woman Juliann Gumulak-Smith in Wow Love Light Inspire Podcast as our guest, Juliann, talks about her personal journey of transitioning mid-life from science to her passion of finances, her financial journey and she shares with us about personal finance, the importance of financial basics and learning investment which isn't taught to us at school.
Personal financing is something we should all learn and do. It can be hard to save especially when for some earnings only cover making ends meet. Where and how do we start a secure financial foundation? Juliann knew there had to be a better way so she came up with a program that is accessible and approachable to all.

Quotes:
“The amount of stress people go through just not having that little bit of safety net… It almost feels like torture, when you don’t have that little bit of savings.”
“Just assessing where you are right now, helps you with the future.”
“You need to have a balanced life. You do need to be able to go out and do things but you just have to readjust things to suit the budget. “
