  • Divorce When You're a Midlife Mom with Nanette Murphy

    In this episode, we have the pleasure of chatting with Nanette Murphy, a  woman who has transformed her own life experiences into a mission to empower others.

    Nanette's journey began eight years ago when she went through a life-altering divorce. As a result, her children left the nest earlier than expected, leaving her suddenly single and facing a mix of fear and uncertainty. However, Nanette's resilience and determination guided her toward a remarkable transformation. What was initially a terrifying experience eventually evolved into a pleasant and comfortable feeling of self-discovery and empowerment.

    Recognizing the challenges many women face when going through a divorce later in life, Nanette dedicated herself to helping others navigate this transformative process. Today, she is a highly sought-after divorce and life coach, specializing in supporting women who are divorcing later in life. Nanette's purpose is clear: to guide and inspire her clients as they embark on their own journeys, empowering them to embrace the next beautiful chapter in their lives.

    In addition to her coaching work, Nanette is a published author, having written multiple books that offer guidance, inspiration, and practical tools for women navigating the challenges of divorce and embracing a life filled with purpose.
