41: Loneliness After Divorce: A Hard Truth and a New Perspective

Quinn Otrera Episode 41

Hey girlfriend, let’s have a real talk. Today, I’m sharing a personal story about loneliness—the kind that sneaks up on you even when you're surrounded by people.

My sister, a widow, recently told me she feels completely alone. I get it. I know that feeling well. I see it in my clients all the time. But today, I want to challenge that thought. Because sometimes, "I'm all alone" isn't a fact—it's a story we're telling ourselves.

In this episode, we’ll cover:
✨ The difference between circumstance and story—what’s really happening vs. what we tell ourselves
✨ How loneliness isn't just a divorce thing (spoiler: you can feel lonelier in marriage than out of it)
✨ How the "symptoms" of loneliness can create more isolation.
✨ Practical ways to shift your mindset and see the support you already have

💬 Let’s keep this conversation going! Have you ever told yourself you were all alone, only to realize later that wasn’t the full picture? DM me on Instagram [@quinn.otrera] and share your story!
