Episode Description from the Publisher

In this episode, we explore the emotional complexities that brides often face immediately after their wedding day, a phase that I refer to as “The Hangover Effect.”The concept of a hangover, much like the aftermath of a night out with friends, serves as a potent metaphor for the unpredictable emotions that can surface post-wedding. While many anticipate a seamless transition into wedded bliss, it’s common to wake up feeling elated yet disoriented, grappling with questions about what went right and what may have gone awry.I dive into the intricacies of post-wedding feelings that many may not expect. This episode is dedicated to unpacking the powerful mix of joy, regret, confusion, and sadness that can emerge during those initial days and weeks following the celebration.What you’ll learn from this episode:Grieving the uncontrollableBeing kind to your past selfSeeking meaning in the chaosFeatured on the show:Follow me on Instagram to learn more about navigating your wedding with grace and ease: https://www.instagram.com/karaghassabeh/Check out **The Bridal Prep Academy:** https://karamaureen.comLet’s connect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KaraMaureenBridalCoachingGet your copy of the book, **Whispers to a Bride:**https://www.amazon.com/Whispers-Bride-handle-stress-drama/dp/B0BCRXBQFN/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1UXWJVJOF3MNI&keywords=whispers+to+a+bride&qid=1662643892&sprefix=whispers+to+a+bride%2Caps%2C141&sr=8-1
