The Divorce Lessons No One Warns You About

Episode Overview: You all voted for this episode topic, and I decided to give you both of the most popular requests! In this dual-themed episode, I'm sharing five unexpected lessons from my divorce journey, woven together with personal interludes that reveal sides of me beyond the healing content you usually see. From the anticlimactic moment of receiving my divorce email to discovering the power of self-permission, these lessons completely caught me off guard during my healing process.

I also open up about parts of my life you might not know - my British roots, theater background, sacred nightly ritual involving Bob's Burgers and crossword puzzles, and so much more. Plus, I share a vulnerable dating update about what it feels like to slowly open my heart again.

The Five Unexpected Lessons:

The anticlimactic nature of closure

Speaking your truth is healing, not harmful

Self-permission is more powerful than external validation

Healing isn't linear

The path forward is about values, not timelines

Personal Interludes:

My theater background and British roots

Why I was the library kid who skipped recess

My sacred nightly routine (complete with skylight projector!)

A dating update
