    "You No Longer Get My Sunshine": Edwina's Divorce Story

    I have been waiting to celebrate this woman practically since the day I met her. When Edwina first called us, she could barely get the words out. Her husband had just revealed — in their third couples counseling session — that he was in a relationship with another woman. He was still living in the house. Their nine-year-old daughter didn't know yet. And on top of it all: a dear friend dying, a break-in, and squatters downstairs who would eventually drag her to court. She was cracked open, raw, and completely dysregulated. And she leaned in anyway. In this conversation, Edwina walks you through the messy middle — the ugly cries in the park, the daughter she was determined to protect, the moment she realized she'd been giving her sunshine to someone who no longer deserved it — and how she came out the other side with her voice back. We get into: - The phrase from a friend's grandmother that became her compass — and what she says has to come before you can "show them what you're made of" - The boundary she set the day her ex sat down on her sofa like nothing had changed - What she did to the house that made visitors say "something feels different in here" - Her hard-won advice on lawyers, alcohol, and where crying is actually worth the money Edwina isn't telling you divorce was a piece of cake. She's telling you it was a powerful journey — and so, so worth it. If you're in the thick of it and wondering whether any of this is possible for you, listen to her answer to my last question. I want every mother navigating divorce to have what she's having. — 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 early stages of divorce with clarity and confidence.

    Slow Dancing in a Burning Room: Divorce, Denial and Knowing When to Go

    Have you ever heard a song a hundred times — and then one day the lyrics hit you like a ton of bricks? That's what happened when a 20-year-old John Mayer song came on during a family car ride...and suddenly it was all about divorce. Because staying in a marriage you know is over? That's slow dancing in a burning room. In this episode: - The stop/go dance of dysfunction — why we delay leaving long after we know it's time - How denial sets a false narrative on repeat (and why it becomes a default setting) - The red flags you pretended not to see — and what they set in motion - Why finally admitting what you know isn't failure... it's a massive win It's OK to walk off the dance floor, mama.

    Divorce & Spirituality: Is There Really a "Woo" Side of Divorce?

    Is divorce a spiritual experience? I got asked that question in a recent interview, and my answer might surprise you. Because here's the thing — that voice you've been ignoring, the one that was jumping up and down before you ever said "I do"? It never left you. You left it. And getting it back might be the single greatest gift you give yourself, your divorce, and your children. In this episode: - The real reason you stopped trusting your gut — and why the coping mechanisms you learned long before your marriage are keeping you disconnected from it now - What your intuition actually sounds like (hint: it won't tell you what you want to hear) and how to recognize her voice again - How reconnecting to your internal GPS changes the way you show up for the big decisions, the tough conversations, and your kids — with calm resolve instead of chaos Divorce will shake, rattle and roll you — but it's also your invitation to remember who you are. — 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.

    Do you actually know what you need right now? If that question makes you squirm, this episode is for you.

    Bypassing Your Feelings: The Biggest Mistake in Divorce

    Are you doing it again? Stuffing down what you feel, pretending you don't see what you see?
