When Change Knocks at Your Door — Navigating Divorce with Grace
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Divorce is one of life’s most difficult transitions — a moment that can feel heavy, overwhelming, and full of fear. After 20 years of marriage, I found myself standing at this crossroads, faced with the decision to end a relationship and begin again.
In this episode, I share my personal journey of navigating divorce with as much grace and compassion as possible. From hiring a divorce mediator, to engaging in individual and co-parenting therapy, to exploring somatic coaching and rebuilding community — I leaned on every tool available to make the experience less scary.
This is not just a story of endings, but of reclaiming identity, rediscovering flow, and choosing courage in the face of fear. Whether you’re moving through divorce, or any major life transition, this episode offers both vulnerability and practical guidance to help you walk your own path with more strength, patience, and compassion.
