Co-Parenting with Confidence

165. The Haircut and the Healing: Reclaiming Who You’re Becoming After Divorce


Listen Later

After divorce, we’re often so focused on survival — holding everything together for our kids, managing co-parenting, and keeping up appearances — that we forget we’re allowed to change. In this episode, I share a personal story about the worst haircut of my life — how it became a symbol of my lowest point, and why I avoided cutting my hair for 10 years. What started as a simple act of self-care became a wound I carried far longer than I realized. Until now.

This is a conversation about shedding outdated identities, releasing the fear of becoming someone new, and learning to choose yourself again. Whether you're newly divorced or years into this journey, this episode will remind you: healing gives you permission to evolve.

I am always here to help you get clarity on the next step in your life, whether that is making a big relationship change, shifting your parenting, or determining what support you need.
