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.

Unsilencing the Silenced: Wounds and Words of Wisdom
Lorene Roberts speaks to our woman of wisdom guest, Dr. Monica Jackson on this week's episode of Wow Love Light Inspire as she addresses her mission to unsilence the silenced, the source of these wounds, and how to recover from them.
Why do we have wounds? We develop mental, emotional, or physical wounds which may or may not be visible. No one is safe from getting these wounds, so how can we heal from them? Sometimes it takes us until we are mature women to actually see what is happening all around us, and that is when our wisdom kicks in and we truly become inspirational women. In this episode Monica explains why people are in our life and the lessons that they give us and the power of letting go.
Timestamps:
4:11 - What are these wounds?
10:40 - Why it's important that we don't carry all our baggage by ourselves.
33:22 - Why sometimes letting people go is what's best for them.
Quotes:
"If we are more caring about people, as opposed to looking at them as commodities, and machines, the world will be a lot better place."
"When things happen in life, look for the lesson, the wisdom you can take away from that. And I say that because that's literally all you have control."
"Sometimes friends are there for a reason, a season, or a lifetime."
