Have you ever caught yourself thinking, "I guess this is just how my life is now," or "There's nothing I can do to make this better"? That's the trap of black and white thinking or all-or-nothing thinking. This is a mental habit that convinces us we have no control over our life, especially during divorce. In this episode, I dive deep into how black-and-white thinking keeps us feeling powerless and stuck in patterns that no longer serve us. When we believe there are only two options, u...

Self-love shouldn't come with conditions, yet so many of us hold ourselves hostage to impossible standards. I’m tackling this concept of "transactional self-love" in this throwback episode. Transactional self-love are the unconscious bargains we make with ourselves, promising kindness and acceptance only after certain benchmarks are met. We've all said it: "I'll love myself when I lose weight," "I'll be kind to myself once my divorce is finalized,"

Grief is an inevitable part of divorce, but the shame and judgment that often accompany it? Those are completely optional.

Have you ever noticed how society teaches women to shrink, stay small, and remain quiet?
