Breaking Down to Breakthrough

If anyone ever told you growth is a glorious process, they lied. Join me and my guest, Faith Morrison, as we discuss our very real experiences navigating life’s messiest chapters. From the necessity of crumbling and burning to rise anew to the power of therapy and separation, we are sharing unexpected insights, personal sacrifices, and the emotional toll involved in pursuing a path less traveled, whether by choice or by force.  Takeaways * Surrender. Let go. It can be painful, yet absolutely necessary for moving forward. * Divine guidance awaits you - invite it in and then listen better before it gets louder. * “Nothing is wasted, every season serves a purpose” - no matter how seemingly negative, even those seasons filled with regret or perceived as failures contribute to your personal growth and the journey to build a life. * Your journey is not meant to be walked alone.

Healing and Moving On After Divorce

As if divorce isn't hard enough - from the heartbreak of leaving someone you once saw as your "forever," to the absurdity of deciding custody over friends, and enduring unsolicited, holier-than-thou advice, the journey is nothing short of a rollercoaster. Join me and April Nowlin, a three-time divorcee turned Divorce Recovery & Relationship Coach, as we own up to our past toxic relationship patterns and dish out our unfiltered truth about healing after divorce. 7 hard truths from this episode: 1. There’s no right way to get divorced. 2. Not all therapists are the right fit for you.  3. The grief may never end, but it will shift. 4. There is no timeframe for when you will heal from divorce.   5. Just because it doesn’t hurt anymore doesn’t mean you’re healed.  6. Your healing in "singlehood" will not necessarily transfer over to skills and presence needed when you get in a relationship.  7. Divorce is a death but it is not a death sentence.

Stay true to yourself and be consistent with who you are. Be authentic while being aware of the audience.  2. Your career isn't the sole path to fulfillment. It's part of a larger strategy toward a truly rewarding life. Prioritize purpose, feeling heard, or any other feeling you want to experience. 3. Take the time to understand who you are and what makes you unique so that those labels and roles aren’t what define you. 4. As a caregiver, be flexible with your self-care practices, but never neglect them. Nurturing yourself is essential for nurturing others. Remember, put your mask on first.
