    Avoiding Divorce Weeds: How to Stop Getting Derailed and Keep Moving Forward

    Divorce doesn't come at you in a straight line — it comes in waves, curveballs, and moments that stop you cold. I call it "the weeds."

This one is for every mother who's felt swept up by the challenges of divorce.

    Parental Alienation: What Every Divorcing Mother Needs to Know

    If you're divorcing a narcissist, this one is close to my heart — and I won't sugarcoat it. Parental alienation is one of the most painful, devastating outcomes a mother can face in divorce. And the heartbreaking truth? It's also one of the most avoidable — yet far too many of us are forced to navigate it anyway. In this episode, I'm getting real about what parental alienation actually looks like, why the courts offer less protection than you'd hope, and what you can do to protect your kids and yourself. - Why divorcing a narcissist almost always comes with some level of parental alienation — and how to prepare without panicking - What the courts won't respond to, and the smarter way to build your case - What to say (and not say) when your kids are caught in the middle - Why your own condition during divorce directly determines what's possible for your kids You only control one side of the divorce street, mama. But that side matters more than you know. — 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.

    Why You Need a Divorce Tribe

    When life gets hard, it's so easy to hide — to suffer in silence, to feel like you're the only one who's ever made a decision you regret. But what if your story, your courage, your healing was medicine to someone else? In this episode, I'm talking about the power of having a divorce tribe around you — and why going it alone is one of the biggest mistakes you can make during this tender time. - Why isolation keeps you stuck, and what shifts when you let yourself be supported - How your divorce unfolds 24/7 — not 9 to 5 — and why the right scaffolding around you is a game-changer - The real story of how our Inner Circle community rallied around a mama who had no one nearby when she needed us most - Why a tribe of women walking the same path can move you from feeling isolated to feeling empowered - What you're allowed to feel, want, need, and ask for — even while divorcing No more suffering in silence. No more going it alone. Life on the other side of your divorce is calling. — 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.

    In Need of a Magic Wand in Your Divorce?

    Let's be honest…when you're in pain, you just want it to stop. And divorce? It's a buffet of discomfort. I get it. I've been there. I know what it feels like to be awake at 3am, drowning in anxious thoughts, wondering if there's any end in sight. There's no magic wand. No quick fix. But there is a better way through — and that's what we're talking about today. In this episode, I share my own story of hitting rock bottom during my divorce and the unexpected moment that cracked everything open. I also share stories of mamas in our program who are making massive moves — negotiating settlements, holding firm boundaries, advocating for themselves — and what made the difference. Inside: - Why the condition you're in while divorcing affects everything — your outcomes, your kids, your future - What the butterfly's transformation has to teach us about where you are right now - Real stories of women who stopped waiting and started moving the needle - The first two steps to finding your footing — even in the middle of the mess You don't need magical thinking. You need support, clarity, and the will to believe that better is possible.

    When Birthdays Disappoint: How to Feel Your Feelings and Reclaim Celebration During Divorce

    I'll be honest — my birthday this year didn't go the way I planned. I was exhausted, dealing with a lot, and the feelings that showed up weren't exactly festive. Sound familiar? Whether it's a birthday, a holiday, or just a random Tuesday, divorce has a way of making ordinary moments feel unexpectedly heavy. In this episode, I'm sharing what I learned when I stopped pushing through and started listening — and the simple but powerful practice I used to honor exactly where I am right now. In this episode: - Why it's okay when celebrations don't feel celebratory — especially during divorce - The birthday letter practice I'm using to document the journey, declare my desires and set myself free - How to model emotional authenticity for your kids — and why it matters more than keeping it together - Why different doesn't have to mean worse — even when it comes to split holidays You get to feel it all, mama — and still find something worth celebrating. — 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.
