Divorce Your Story Podcast

Divorce can be a challenging and emotional time, not only for the parents but especially for the children. While there are many concerns parents have regarding their children's well-being, what can easily get overlooked are the subtle emotional impacts this transition can have on them. Parents may focus on practical aspects like custody, finances, and new living arrangements, but it’s essential not to lose sight of the emotional and psychological needs of the children during this time.

In this week's episode, I highlight 7 critical mistakes parents should avoid before, during, and after divorce to ensure their children receive the love, stability, and support they need throughout the process. Tune in for valuable insights on navigating this challenging time with care and intention.

When someone spends a large part of their adult life in an unhealthy marriage, feelings of regret often surface. They might feel as though they sacrificed what society deems their "best years" or "youth," and this regret can become overwhelming, leading to emotions like guilt, shame, embarrassment, and even anger.

When dealing with the grief of a divorce, regret is a common feeling to experience. However, what becomes problematic is when that regret starts to dominate your thoughts and actions, preventing you from moving forward. It can keep you stuck in the past, replaying decisions over and over, and robbing you of the chance to heal and create a future that aligns with who you are now. The challenge is learning to acknowledge the regret without letting it control your present or dictate your future.

On this week's podcast, join me as I give four powerful ways that you can break free of regret, reclaim your life and start moving forward.

When a marriage ends, you're often encouraged to "live your best life," but what does that really mean when your identity has been deeply tied to your marriage?

When you're used to a certain dynamic, the idea of redefining your best life can easily get overlooked. It's not because you don't desire something better; it's because anything outside of your familiar routine can feel unnatural, making it easy to fall back into the safety net of survival mode.

To truly live your best life, you must be intentional. This requires deep reflection on your decisions and the direction you're heading to ensure they align with the future you want to create.

In this week's podcast episode, join me for a conversation with one of my former clients to explore her journey of feeling stuck four years after divorce, her changing perspective on men, the transition from parallel parenting to co-parenting, and the cultivation of peace.

Infidelity is indeed a form of trauma. When someone has been betrayed in this manner, it severely impacts their psychological well-being. This act can alter a person's self-esteem, develop trust issues, and lead to feelings of anxiety, depression, and emotional instability. It can make it difficult for individuals to form healthy relationships in the future and may cause them to question their self-worth and ability to trust others again.

According to statistics, 55% of divorces are due to infidelity, and infidelity occurs in 30-40% of non-marital monogamous relationships.

When infidelity happens, the question becomes: how do you recover? How can you prevent an experience like this from keeping you stuck in the past, and how do you move forward with strength and resilience in a way that enables you to embrace your next chapter?

On this week's podcast episode, join me as I talk with Infidelity Recovery Coach Briaina LaTrice as she shares of experience of recurring infidelity in her marriage, finding the courage to leave, why you must heal, and the importance of releasing the shame of leaving or staying.

When discussing "burnout," it's often associated with work; however, burnout can also occur in relationships, especially after the end of a marriage or partnership.

The emotional stress, imbalance of efforts, unhealthy dynamics, adjusting to a new normal, and a constant cycle of fight or flight can lead to physical, mental, and emotional exhaustion.

Recovering from burnout is not an overnight fix; it is a process that takes time. However, with the right routines, strategies, and habits, you can gradually regain your strength and well-being.

On this week's podcast, join me as I discuss the mental, emotional and physical toll of breakup burnout, identifying potential possible signs and symptoms, and four practical steps to support you on your recovery journey.

When divorce happens, judgment inevitably follows. Whether from culture, religion, or societal expectations, everyone seems to have an opinion on your decision.

This judgment can lead to anxiety and depression, causing you to feel stuck and unable to move forward into the next chapter of your life.

While you can't prevent others from judging your decisions, you can be intentional about how much significance their judgment holds in your life.

In this week's podcast, join me as I discuss the burden of others' opinions, the impact that judgment can have on you after divorce, and six essential questions to develop the benefit of being "unbothered" so that you can live a thriving life.
