Here, Garcia, who did not want to explain in detail the lead -up from Chigbinzev, how to find healing from heartache and a healing force that she did not know she had. Open whether you helped.
In recent months you have experienced a lot. How are you?
I have to say that 2025 is surprising to me so far. I really took time on my own date. I have a day when I can concentrate on self -care with myself, and I can really know who I am in my forties. I should see this completely new era, and I can choose what I want to be [where to] Take it.
You are known for being an open book. But when everything happened, you retired from the public’s eyes. Please tell us more about that decision.
Everything was very shocking. And I think that was the main reason I knew I had to cut it. I was shocked. I never said this was my 2024 or the end of my marriage- [I] I wouldn’t have believed you. It takes a long time to process something. It was necessary to cut it to handle everything that happened.
In the meantime, who did you come to?
I couldn’t get over [it] No therapist, no mother [Kathy Colace]Without Brie. I needed them, and I needed their love -if it was a hug, I just sat down and ventilated me, met Matteo, and had a happy time Whether to. Whatever it is, your team is very important. You need someone around you [not only] Give you power, but love you and make you feel emotion.
Did your family and friends are surprised at the split?
Brie was very loud. She said she felt this relationship should end long before it was done. She always felt that they were two different people trying to work. But my mother was a large supporter [me and Artem]。 She was actually flying [the] day [of the incident] To spend the weekend with us.
After a break for more than three months, I returned to the podcast on December 2. Are you nervous?
absolutely. We hear it from the people in the world- [they] Talk about trolls on the Internet. It’s wild. It was probably my biggest fear. And my therapist [Cari Rose]She is also my life coach, and “There are more people in this world who need your message to you.” It gives me a chill now. And I go, “Because it’s true.”
How was your fans reaction?
I was overwhelmed in a very wonderful way. I didn’t know that I would cut it for a long time -and on a high path for my son and tried to be as private as possible -how much stimulating people.
How did you explain everything to Matteo?
I used words like divorce, [but] Only when he was asked. Everything just has our house. You can go to see your mom and go to dad. When we baked Santa cookies on Christmas, we both confirmed that both were there. Matteo went to bed and when he woke up, both of us were there. He is our focus, so we want to protect those moments.
So far, how was it like ARTEM?

What is hooked on copying is to get a schedule. Someday, “OK, here you have a day to get your son”, and that’s exactly what you are doing. For me, that part is incredibly difficult. I had never been to our house without him. So I love being around my son, so it’s very difficult to get over those days.
How is the Matteo adjusted?
Matteo is OK and is not affected. That will be easier. He is happy to go to both houses.
Looking back, do you have regrets?
No, I can’t regret. I feel like things happen for reasons. I am stronger than ever. And that’s not only for yourself, but for Matteo. I am a mother and want to do my best for my son.
When do you feel your best these days?
Definitely when I exercise. When sweating, I always feel like I can conquer the world. It is one of the best treatments I can do. I [also] I created a playlist and just dancing. I felt like I lost a part of myself, not a sex appeal, so I enjoyed it, but “Girl, are you sexy? Let’s loosen you.” I looked at how to move, and tried to dance a lot in the mirror.
Have you ever had a hard time?
When an event occurs, or when something comes out, I still receive the moment of heartache. I know that it will improve in time. However, as a whole, I am very grateful for my heart and very grateful. I am very grateful [for] My family, my health.
Please tell me about your healing journey. What other changes did you bring in your life?
For me, focusing on healing is completely mind, body, and soul. I took it out completely [alcohol] For months. I didn’t want anything in my body that I could feel more emotional, sad, or depressed. I focus on putting good nutrients on my body and raised my vitamins [did] What I knew can help my interior stronger physically. Then I work[ed] Mental part. And honestly, it was incredible for my healing.
Are you drinking now?
I am in a place to save it for a special opportunity. And since I am in my forties, Brie and I cannot drink more than two people. But for the past few months, it’s crazy because I really opened my eyes in a way to see things more clearly.
Do you think you have a misunderstanding about you?
How sympathetic do you think one of the shocks for people is very shocked? [I am]。 I have a really big heart, and I wear it on my sleeve, sometimes it may be difficult. But I’m very soft [with] people. And when you see your father’s father’s hooked on drugs and abuse, he thinks he overcomes it -he’s an incredible man. 。 When people meet me or meet Brie, they are very love to give them, and they understand very much. And that’s just our journey and what we experienced.
Considering everything that happened, do you still believe in your true love?
i will do it. I really feel that people come to your life. People come and they will tell us things. And sometimes, when they do not go well, you have to look at what I learned and what I got. Because it always has beauty.
Do you accept dating again?
I can definitely see myself falling in love again. I don’t think it’s always right away. Returning to that place and just being confident in your body, it will take some time.
wonderful!
I feel good, but when I’m naked, it’s just like starting to analyze myself. What happens if that person doesn’t understand the “mom’s body” instead of a dad? He’s like “Oh, she has an older body” or a nursing like my boobs. I don’t mean to give up. I need to be in a good place for that. Mom needs to return the groove first for himself.
Do you think you’ve got married again?
I don’t want to sign the documents again. If you find an appropriate person, you don’t care [a commitment ceremony]But I don’t want to be legal [bound]。
How about more children?

I definitely don’t want more children. I’m fine.
Why not?
I just feel like I’m 41 years old. I have just escaped from the age of infants and do not want to return. I hang around the playground and bite cold brewing. I’m OK, it’s a lot!
What are the lessons learned last year?
I think the boundary is very important, such as your family, relationship, career, business partner, etc. I [also] I’m not going to emphasize that things do not work. Do I know what it means, or my purpose?
What does the future look like for you?
[My dream] Not only prospering in my career [do so] He is the best mom as possible, just living a life full of happiness and love.
