    Becoming the CEO of Your Divorce: Are You An Empath who Feels all the Feels? 3 Steps to A Better Divorce Process with Meagan Norris

    Several listeners had reached out to request an episode on divorce. We all hope to  live a happily ever after, but sometimes life takes a different turn, and our happily ever after needs editing. Today, I interviewed Meagan Norris, a lawyer and certified life coach who helps Empaths strategize the best divorce possible. We've all heard the horror stories of getting divorced. The fighting, the power plays, narsaccist behaviors and so on. It can take a major toll on your physical, financial and emotional well being. Meagan says that Somewhere between concious uncoupling (Gwenyth Paltrow) and Brad Pitt and Angelina's 7 year divorce, there's a happier medium that one can fall into. She offers 3 strategies to a happier divorce process. The key is to keep your eye on the  Objective, to look for potholes that slow the process; to dodge the power plays. Here's to a Happier, Freer YOU. Our audience asked questions: What if my spouse is delaying the process? How can I deflect power plays when my spouse is hard to deal with? Should I stay married for the children? When do you know when it's time to file paperwork and proceed with divorce? How can moms of teens show up for their children, during this difficult process? We talk boundaries, strategies and more. If you are going thru divorce or know someone who needs to hear this, check it out and send to your friends. It's a game changer. Is your marriage salvageable? Check out Episode 60. It’s a story of a fractured marriage on the brink of divorce and how a last minute trip to Italy brought redemption and hope to the entire family.
