#6: Courage to Change

  To divorce with heart and build a better life you need courage. Change cannot come without courage. Courage is strength. Courage is taking risks. Even risks on yourself for the sake of your children. Courage is being willing to stand out. To stand out from the crowd and resist the norm. Courage is risking judgment. Judgment from those even closest to you. But it’s only in courage where you discover your strength and can create change. Courage can feel like sacrifice and be tricky to recognize. It may feel like having to give up some legal entitlement, or like trading money for time, or kids. You may be criticized and judged a fool for your choices. But courage is not foolish and you are no fool. To divorce with heart is to lead with the heart, and this can never be a foolish act. What are you struggling with the most? What is creating the most difficulty? Maybe it’s an opportunity to exercise courage. Have your questions answered and gain insight from a different perspective.
