    Winning in Divorce: Interview with Jackie Pilossoph of Divorced Girl Smiling

    What if you've been measuring your divorce wins all wrong? In this special episode, I had the mic flipped on me — joining Jackie Pilossoph, founder of Divorced Girl Smiling, as her guest to talk about an article I wrote on redefining what it truly means to win in divorce. It's a conversation that's close to my heart, and I knew I had to bring it home to you here. We talk so much about the obvious markers of divorce success — custody arrangements, financial settlements, division of assets. But true winning? It runs so much deeper than that. In this episode, we explore: = Why the traditional scoreboard of divorce — legal wins, financial outcomes, and asset division — can actually work against you - What real winning looks and feels like: being present with your kids, trusting your intuition, and showing up as yourself again - How to stop getting triggered and detoured by the chaos, and start protecting your energy and your health - Why squeezing your own needs out of the equation is never a win — and what to do instead - How mothers just like you are divorcing smarter, healing faster, and reclaiming their power This episode is a reframe, a recalibrator, and a reminder of what your real priorities are in this often messy and painful process. Only you can decide what winning truly means to you — but I hope this conversation helps you see it more clearly. — If you’re a professional, independent mother facing off with divorce, worried about your emotional wellbeing, your kids and your future…and want a better way to navigate it all, here’s how we can help: FREE DIVORCE WORKSHOP BOOK A FREE STRATEGY CALL The Intuitive Divorce Podcast helps mothers navigate the messy waters of divorce to achieve the best outcomes for themselves and their kids. Your host, divorce coach Kristen Noel, explores strategies to engage with lawyers and courts, communicate with and protect your children, apply boundaries with a high-conflict or narcissistic partner, and prepare yourself emotionally and financially for this difficult transition — so you can heal, reclaim your mojo and set yourself up for a beautiful next chapter.

    Nowhere Left to Hide: What Moms Navigating Divorce Need to Hear

    If you've been hiding under the laundry, the to-do lists, the carpool runs, and the constant giving — I see you. And I want you to know: running out of places to hide isn't a crisis. It's your turning point. In this episode, I'm talking directly to the moms who are crawling out of their skin and don't know where to start. Because that feeling? It means you're ready.In this conversation, you’ll discover why… - Your breaking point is actually a beginning. When you've truly run out of options, that's when the real healing starts — not a sign something is wrong with you. - "Self-centered" isn't a dirty word. There's a difference between selfish and centered in self — and learning that distinction may be the most important shift you make in your divorce. - You know what you want — you've just forgotten how to ask for it. Most moms I work with say they just want "peace and happiness." We dig into what that really means and how to actually get there. — If you’re a professional, independent mother facing off with divorce, worried about your emotional wellbeing, your kids and your future…and want a better way to navigate it all, here’s how we can help: FREE DIVORCE WORKSHOP BOOK A FREE STRATEGY CALL The Intuitive Divorce Podcast helps mothers navigate the messy waters of divorce to achieve the best outcomes for themselves and their kids.

    I'm No Longer Available for That: Setting Boundaries During Divorce

    There's a track playing on repeat in the background of so many women's lives during divorce — one that says you have to explain yourself, justify your choices, and keep everyone else comfortable, even at your own expense. In this episode, I'm pulling that pattern into the light, because the moment you see it is the moment you can change it. - Your divorce is not a zero-sum game. Two truths can co-exist: I want out AND I care about how I do it. - Boundaries aren't cold or dismissive — they're one of the most loving things you can do for yourself and your family. - You are not here to fix or comfort everyone through a decision that is yours to make. Repeat after me: I am no longer available for that. Getting clear on what you're no longer available for is the gateway to everything waiting for you on the other side. 💛 — If you’re a professional, independent mother facing off with divorce, worried about your emotional wellbeing, your kids and your future…and want a better way to navigate it all, here’s how we can help: FREE DIVORCE WORKSHOP BOOK A FREE STRATEGY CALL The Intuitive Divorce Podcast helps mothers navigate the messy waters of divorce to achieve the best outcomes for themselves and their kids.

    Fire Horse or Foal? How Mothers in Divorce Break Free from Fear and Find Their Footing

    I don't know if it's the Fire Horse energy swirling around — but I am so done watching mothers get swallowed up by a system that was never designed to help them heal. And I have a feeling you might be ready for something different too. Whether you're divorce-curious, tiptoeing toward the door, or deep in the messy middle — this episode is for you. Because the steps you take today directly shape the ones you'll have to take tomorrow. Waiting to see how it all works out is NOT a strategy. In this episode: - The four-letter word that's quietly running the show and sabotaging your every move (hint: it's not love) - Why so many mothers know they want out — but still can't get out of their own way, and what their spouse is counting on - Why the power of interruption is so wildly underrated — and what happens when you finally use it You may have walked into this feeling like a wobbly newborn foal. But those legs are going to grow stronger — and they'll need to, because they're going to carry you across the finish line.

    Stop Making Excuses in Your Divorce: Why Action Changes Everything

    This is not a feel-good episode. It’s a truth episode. In today’s conversation, I’m speaking directly to the part of you that knows something has to change—but feels frozen by fear, overwhelm, or excuses that keep you stuck. I know how terrifying divorce can feel. I’ve been there. And I also know this: nothing changes until you do. In this episode, we talk about: - Why staying stuck feels safer—but costs you everything - The most common excuses women make in divorce (and how to talk back to them) - Why fear doesn’t mean “stop”—it means you’re standing at a threshold - How taking action now changes the emotional, legal, and financial outcomes later - What your kids are actually learning when you tolerate dysfunction - Why your lawyer isn’t your emotional support—and why that matters - How support, boundaries, and self-advocacy set you free Divorce is messy. It will dig things up. Let it. Feelings aren’t the problem—avoidance is. You don’t have to do this alone, but you do have to decide that excuses are no longer in charge. — If you’re a professional, independent mother facing off with divorce, worried about your emotional wellbeing, your kids and your future…and want a better way to navigate it all, here’s how we can help: FREE DIVORCE WORKSHOP BOOK A FREE STRATEGY CALL The Intuitive Divorce Podcast helps mothers navigate the messy waters of divorce to achieve the best outcomes for themselves and their kids.

    Divorce Insight (or Incite): The Choice Is Yours

    Divorce doesn’t come with a roadmap. I know how badly you want one—clear direction, fewer missteps, and a way through this without losing yourself or your kids along the way. In this episode, I invite you to look at one simple but powerful distinction: are you moving through your divorce with insight, or are you unintentionally inciting more chaos? I share why so many well-intended mothers get pulled into the spin cycle of overwhelm, reactivity, and conflict—and how learning to slow down, get calm, and listen inward can change everything. In this episode, we explore: - Why chasing the “why” of the marriage can keep you stuck - How emotional reactivity quietly escalates divorce - The difference between fueling the fire and putting it out - Why clarity, intuition, and self-regulation are strategic advantages - How your choices now impact both your outcomes and your children You don’t have to flounder your way through this. You can heal and divorce at the same time. And when you choose insight over incitement, you begin to reclaim your life. — If you’re a professional, independent mother facing off with divorce, worried about your emotional wellbeing, your kids and your future…and want a better way to navigate it all, here’s how we can help: FREE DIVORCE WORKSHOP BOOK A FREE STRATEGY CALL The Intuitive Divorce Podcast helps mothers navigate the messy waters of divorce to achieve the best outcomes for themselves and their kids.
