    EP 51: THE IN-BETWEEN VERSION OF YOU. Who Are You When You’re No Longer Who You Were — But Haven’t Become Who You’re Going To Be?

    Who Are You When You’re No Longer Who You Were — But Haven’t Become Who You’re Going To Be? There is a version of you that exists after your marriage ends that we don't talk about enough. The in-between version of you. You're no longer who you were inside your marriage, but you haven't fully become who you're going to be yet. In this episode, I'm exploring the identity shift that can happen after divorce — and why rebuilding your life isn't necessarily about getting back to who you were before. Sometimes you're being asked to become someone you've never been before. In this episode, we explore: Why the old version of you can feel so tempting after divorce — even when you know you've outgrown themThe difference between changing your circumstances and actually changing yourselfWhy feeling lost can sometimes mean you're simply between versions of yourselfOutgrowing old relationship patterns, friendships, environments and identitiesWhat happens when your career, financial goals and ambitions begin changing tooWhy transformation after divorce can extend far beyond healing from your exHow the choices you're making now are creating evidence for the person you're becomingWhy you can honour who you've been without continuing to live as themThe question worth asking when your old life has ended: Who am I becoming because my old life no longer exists?Divorce changes your circumstances. Transformation changes you. READY TO WORK WITH ME? I coach men and women through the personal and professional transformation that can happen after separation and divorce.

    EP 50: The Cost to the Feminine: What Did You Really Lose in the Heartbreak?

    When we talk about heartbreak, we tend to focus on the obvious losses—the relationship, the marriage, the financial cost, the future we thought we were going to have that's now gone. But what about the parts of you that disappeared in the marriage and in the heartbreak? In this episode, I explore the deeper cost heartbreak has on a woman - her feminine side: her self-trust, innocence, playfulness, belief in men, belief in herself, openness, desire and ability to receive. 🌿 The Feminine Return, my new 9-day activation, begins August 30. If you're ready to rediscover your feminine side, you'll find all the details HERE. Join us inside this private channel. $77AUD 9 days of voice activations from me.

    EP 49: Why Women Are Decentering Men — And Returning To Themselves

    Why Women Are Decentering Men — And Returning To Themselves I'm seeing an interesting shift happening amongst women right now. Women are decentering men. In this episode, I explore: Why I'm seeing more women decenter men.The difference between decentering men from wounding versus healing.How to recognise when you've moved into your healed feminine.Why losing the need to be chosen can initially feel surprisingly strange.What happens to all that emotional bandwidth when you're no longer thinking about, chasing, keeping or looking for a man.Why being closed to men isn't the same as being healed.The difference between hyper-independence and genuine self-sufficiency.Why the healed feminine doesn't chase or perform for love.What feminine magnetism actually is—and why it has very little to do with appearance or sex appeal.Why loving yourself, loving your life and being open to life itself can make you deeply magnetic.How you know when “the hook” is finally gone—the need to be chosen, validated, saved or financially secured by somebody else.The difference between love that validates and love that has the foundations to last.Why feminine leadership isn't about becoming less powerful, ambitious or independent.How decentering relationships can accidentally lead you towards the biggest, fullest version of your own life.🤍 If you're ready to heal the relationship patterns that keep hooking you and step into a more self-led version of yourself, this is exactly the work I do through my private 1:1 coaching.

    EP 48: Why Strong Women Often Attract Takers In Relationships

    In this episode, I unpack a relationship dynamic I see repeatedly in my coaching: the over-functioner and the taker. In this episode, I talk about: Why over-functioners and under-functioners can be so attracted to each other.How your competence can hide a partner's lack of contribution.Why constantly stepping forward prevents you from seeing whether your partner would step forward without you.The difference between genuine strength and self-abandonment.Why receiving can feel so uncomfortable for women who are used to doing everything themselves.How stronger boundaries change not necessarily who is attracted to you—but who gets to stay.What happens when you stop asking, "How do I make this relationship work?" and start asking, "Is this relationship actually right for me?"If you recognise yourself in this episode and you're ready to change the patterns you're repeating in love, I'd love to support you. Please email me here carladacosta@proton.me to book a complimentary 15-minute discovery call with me to explore coaching with me to circuit break this lifetime pattern. Carla x

    EP 46: The Woman I Had To Become Before I Could Build Wealth

    Ready to Become the Woman Who Builds Wealth? Doors are now open to my brand-new 9-Day Activation: Become the Woman Who Builds Wealth Upgrade your financial identity. Create wealth from the inside out. Find further details here. This isn't a budgeting course. It isn't about spreadsheets. It's about becoming the woman who knows how to create wealth—financially, emotionally and professionally. ✨ We begin 7th July. Join here: Click Here. Episode 46: The Woman I Had To Become Before I Could Build Wealth Most women believe wealth begins with money. I don't. I believe wealth begins with the woman. In today's episode, I'm sharing one of the most personal financial decisions I've ever made. When my marriage ended, I left with money. Everyone around me gave me the same advice. Buy a house. Return to dental hygiene. Play it safe. Protect what you have. Instead... I chose something completely different. I invested in myself. I backed my dreams. I built a business. I embraced uncertainty instead of certainty. And in doing so, I realised something that completely changed the way I think about wealth. My greatest investment was never property. It wasn't business. It wasn't the stock market. It was becoming the woman capable of creating wealth. In this episode, we explore why financial freedom is built through identity first, why courageous decisions often feel uncomfortable, and how your relationship with money may be shaped far more by your mindset than your circumstances. If you've ever wondered why some women create extraordinary wealth after divorce while others remain stuck in survival mode, this conversation is for you. In this episode we cover: Why leaving my marriage with money didn't automatically create financial freedom.The advice everyone told me to follow—and why I chose a different path.The difference between protecting money and creating wealth.How fear quietly disguises itself as "being sensible."Why financial growth rarely feels safe.The financial identity shift that changed everything.What almost losing my business taught me about true wealth.Why I believe wealth begins with the woman—not the money.If this episode resonates with you, I'd love to hear your biggest takeaway. Send me a message on Instagram @carladacostacoach or share this episode to your stories and tag me so I can thank you personally. And if you're ready to upgrade your financial identity and begin creating wealth from the inside out... I'd love to welcome you inside Become the Woman Who Builds Wealth.

    EP 45: Are You Thinking Too Small About Your Life Post-Separation?

    Are You Thinking Too Small About Your Life Post-Separation? In this episode, Carla explores how survival mode can quietly shrink our vision for what's possible and why so many women underestimate the future they are capable of creating. In this episode, we discuss: ✨ Why survival can quietly become an identity ✨ The difference between safety and possibility ✨ Why rebuilding your life isn't the same as rebuilding yourself ✨ How women unintentionally think too small after separation ✨ The question that changes everything: What would you love your life to look like 12 months from now? ✨ Why capability isn't the problem for most women — vision is ✨ How to start imagining a future bigger than your past If you've been focused on healing, rebuilding and simply getting through, this conversation is your invitation to dream again. Because the goal was never just to survive your separation. The goal was to create a life that excites you. AFTERGLOW: THE REINVENTION ERA Doors are currently open. Please find more information here. This is my signature coaching program for women ready to move beyond survival mode and consciously create their next chapter. 🤍 Carla Da Costa

    EP 44: Why Some Women Completely Transform After Their Marriage Ends (And Why Others Stay Kind Of The Same Or Stuck)

    In this deeply personal episode, I share my own reinvention journey year by year since leaving my marriage in 2016 and the lessons, challenges and growth each season of my life demanded from me. From leaving dentistry, building a coaching business, navigating divorce, rebuilding my finances, learning self-worth, relationships, identity shifts and stepping into entirely new versions of myself, this episode explores what it really takes to create a life that barely resembles the one you left behind. Because changing your life isn't about getting lucky. It's about becoming different. It's about allowing life to change you. It's about creating such a profound shift in your identity, beliefs, standards and behaviours that your future unfolds differently. In this episode, we explore: ✨ Why awareness alone doesn't change your life ✨ The difference between healing and reinvention ✨ How identity shifts create new timelines ✨ The lessons each chapter of life asks us to learn ✨ Why some people stay stuck while others create entirely different futures ✨ What it really means to become someone new The deeper the reinvention, the deeper the change. If you've been feeling the pull towards a bigger next chapter, this episode is for you. 🤍 AFTERGLOW: The Reinvention Era is now open.
