089 - Dealing with betrayal, with Tracy Mcfie

In this episode Julia talks with single mum, and co-founder of Wyld Tribe Tracy Mcfie.  Five years ago Tracy was happily married to her teenage love of over two decades, a fly-in-fly-out worker. Her and her two children lived in Western Australia, and her husband (who worked in the mines) was in China working 3 out of 4 weeks. Life was challenging at times but after living this lifestyle for 17 years, it was something that Tracy was used to (though slightly sick of).  Tracy's world came crashing down after she received a text message from another woman which revealed her husband's infidelity.  In this episode, Tracy tells us how she was left lying on the bathroom floor at the edge of the darkness and completely broken. She endured heartbreak, terrible betrayal, loss and grief. She also went through stages where she looked down the back of the couch for coins and worked her butt off doing anything to keep her family safe. Five years after the darkness Tracy radiates happiness. Her attitude and zest for life is contagious. She rose from the ashes more vibrant, resilient, happy, and stronger than ever. She is not a victim, but a warrior. She explains how her experience has SHAPED her, carved her into the woman she is now, and how she will continue to evolve and grow.  Julia and Tracy also chat about: dealing with grief and heartache, healing after betrayal, the co-parenting struggle, the affect this has had on her (then) teenage children, how the experience inspired her to start Wyld Tribe, how great things can happen out of terrible experiences,  the power of the sisterhood, and SO MUCH MORE!!
