Listen Later

Navigating the complexities of divorce can take a toll on our well-being, but it also presents an opportunity for growth and self-discovery.


In this episode, Karen McMahon and I delve into these themes. Karen is a high-conflict divorce coach and strategist who shares her personal and raw divorce story, along with the powerful mindset shifts she has learned over the past 15 years. We discuss how to move through pain, heal from the past, and continue to refine your character to create a future you love.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to navigate the emotional rollercoaster of divorce and change your interactions with your ex
  • Three neutral statements that will help you communicate more effectively with your difficult ex without giving in to them.  
  • The importance of self-compassion and how to avoid judging yourself for your choices.
  • Why boundaries are essential in a high-conflict divorce and how to set them effectively.
  • Strategies for co-parenting with a difficult ex without becoming emotionally drained.
  • Tips for healing your triggers to avoid repeating toxic patterns in future relationships.
  • How to use her 3 A’s an opportunity to create a life that aligns with your true self

If you’re struggling with divorce, co-parenting, or healing from a toxic relationship, this conversation will provide you the tools and confidence to start moving forward.

Cheers to finding more freedom and joy!
