The Divorce Revolution

Amber Shaw

You're divorced. Now let's make your next chapter your best one. Welcome to The Divorce Revolution, a podcast for divorced moms who want to start and grow an online coaching business, hosted by Amber Shaw, business coach for divorced women who are ready to stop starting over and start building something of their own. After my own divorce, I was lost, broke, and had no idea what came next or how I'd support myself as a divorced mom. I wasn't just grieving my marriage, I was grieving my identity, my security, and the version of me who thought someone else would always have my back. So I did what most women are never taught to do. I rebuilt my life, my confidence, and my income from the ground up by starting an online coaching business. And it changed everything. This podcast is for divorced moms who know they want more. More autonomy. More income they control. More purpose. More proof that they can take care of themselves and their kids, on their terms. Each solo episode dives into the real stuff no one talks about when you're starting over and starting a business at the same time. Mindset. Money. Identity shifts. Confidence. Visibility. Imposter syndrome. Content that actually attracts clients. And what it really takes to turn your lived experience into a coaching business that pays you back, even if you don't think you're qualified yet. Because divorce isn't the end. It's your launchpad. If you're ready to stop circling, stop guessing, and finally build something that's fully yours, you're in the right place. Welcome to the revolution. Let's do this.

    457. The Difference Between Helpful Content and Client-Attracting Content

    What if being "helpful" is actually the reason no one is hiring you?   In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm breaking down the real difference between content that's just nice and educational and content that actually leads to paid coaching clients.   If you've been posting consistently, sharing tips, getting a few likes and saves—but still not getting inquiries—this conversation is going to hit home. I walk you through why "helpful" content alone can quietly stall your growth, especially if you're leaning on generic advice that sounds good but doesn't actually move someone into decision mode.   Resources Mentioned: Episode 455. 2026 Content Ideas for Coaches Who Want to Sign More Clients: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/455-2026-content-ideas-for-coaches-who-want-to-sign/id1577282350?i=1000748883672 Episode 456.

    454. The Metrics That Actually Matter in Your Coaching Business (2026 Edition)

    Are you tracking everything in your business and still feeling unsure if you're actually moving in the right direction?   In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm breaking down the metrics that actually matter in your coaching business—especially as you head into a new year and start setting goals.

    453. Why Playing It Safe Online Is Costing You Clients

    Playing it safe online might feel comfortable but what if it's the exact thing keeping you invisible, stuck, and second-guessing your potential as a coach?   In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm talking directly to the coach who knows she wants to show up more online…but keeps hesitating. The one tweaking her bio again, rewriting captions she never posts, or hiding behind "productive" tasks instead of actually being seen. I break down why visibility feels so scary, what's really happening underneath that fear, and how taking messy, imperfect action is often the fastest path to clarity, confidence, and clients.     If you've been playing it safe online, waiting to feel more confident before showing up, or hiding behind perfectionism instead of letting yourself be seen, then this episode is for you.   Resources Mentioned: Content to Clients: https://ambershaw.samcart.com/products/ctc-day1 Join the waitlist for ReNewU, my signature group program for divorced moms ready to launch a coaching business that actually pays: https://products.ambershaw.com/signature-waitlist   What I Discuss: 01:35 Why visibility feels so hard (and what's really underneath it) 06:09 Why messy action builds confidence faster than perfection 07:45 How authenticity—not polish—actually attracts the right clients 19:17 Practical ways to start showing up online without overthinking 23:17 Final thoughts on visibility, courage, and doing the damn thing   Find more from Amber Shaw: Instagram: @msambershaw Website: ambershaw.com

    452. The Burnout No One Talks About When You're a Coach

    Burnout doesn't always look like total exhaustion or wanting to quit—it can show up quietly, in the way you start dreading sessions or feeling wiped after every call.   In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm talking about the kind of burnout coaches rarely admit out loud—the kind that creeps in when you're doing "all the right things" but still feel mentally and emotionally drained.    If you've been feeling drained after sessions, questioning whether coaching is really for you, or wondering why something you love is starting to feel heavy, then this episode is for you.   Resources Mentioned: The Confident Coach Certification is the ONLY certification specifically for divorced moms who want overcome imposter syndrome and finally feel legit: https://products.ambershaw.com/the-confident-coach-certification Listen to Episode 451.
