✨ Create Your Identity First ✨3 Steps to Rebuild Your Identity After Divorce (or Any Major Life Change):

Before the next relationship.
Before the new chapter.
Before the vision board comes to life.

You have to remember who you are, and then decide who you’re becoming.

Your identity sets the vibration for everything that follows. When you know who you are, you stop settling for breadcrumbs and start calling in full-course love, because you finally see yourself as the feast.

3 Steps to Rebuild Your Identity After Divorce (or Any Major Life Change):

1️⃣ Detach from the old roles.
You are not just someone’s ex, mother, or job title. Release the identities that were attached to pain or performance.

2️⃣ Define your values.
Ask: What matters most to me now?
Your values are your new compass. They anchor you when the world feels wobbly.

3️⃣ Design your next chapter on purpose.
Visualize the woman you are becoming, how she walks, talks, loves, and lives. Start embodying her today.

Because when your identity aligns with your truth…
Your destiny has no choice but to rise and meet you.

Stop waiting for someone else to define who you are. Identity is built from the inside out. ❤️

Walking into a holiday party alone used to be my biggest dread.

The chit-chat, the silent glances, the, “So, what are you up to now?” from distant relatives—each one felt like a poke right in the heart. I’d find myself standing by the snacks, faking small talk, counting how long until I could slip out the door.

If this sounds too close to home, trust me, you’re not the only one. The holidays after divorce are hard. Everyone keeps telling you, “Time heals all wounds,” but right now, you’re worried about making it through the upcoming family gatherings without tearing up.

Maybe you’re tired of pretending you’re okay when you’re really not. Maybe you dread waking up Christmas morning to an empty house or being the only one in the family photo without a partner.

But you don’t have to keep living this way every holiday season. You deserve so much more than just surviving—you deserve to actually feel happy again.

Look at the picture below. These are the happy faces of women who have been through the Divorcing Gracefully and Beyond program.

That’s where I come in. I help women heal from the pain of divorce in 12 weeks or less. We’ll work together, just like sisters, to clear out all that heaviness and help you find genuine joy again, even during the holidays.

If you’re ready to stop pretending and actually start feeling better, let’s talk.

A house divided cannot stand. And neither can a woman whose head, heart, and soul are arguing instead of aligning.

When you’re split inside, you’ll feel it everywhere. Your decisions get foggy. Your intuition gets quiet. Your confidence flickers. You start questioning your worth, your path, your desires.

But when you bring your inner “home” back into harmony…Everything shifts. Your energy steadies. Your boundaries strengthen. Your love life upgrades.
Your future stops feeling threatening and starts feeling possible.

Here’s how to begin rebuilding your internal house so it can stand tall again:

Step 1: Get the truth out of your head and onto paper
When your mind is swirling with fear, confusion, or old stories, you can’t hear your heart speak. Writing it down clears the static and gives your soul room to drop in.

Step 2: Ask your heart one simple question: “What do I actually desire?” Not what you should want. Not what keeps the peace. Not what your past trained you to settle for. Your heart always knows the next right step. It’s honest, raw, and sometimes inconvenient… but it never lies.

Step 3: Let your soul choose the pace Your soul operates from clarity, not urgency. When you pause, breathe, and let your inner wisdom lead, you stop forcing timelines and start creating alignment. And aligned women? They attract aligned love, aligned opportunities, aligned lives.

Your wholeness isn’t a future goal. It’s a homecoming waiting for you now.

We’ve got to start doing divorce differently. It doesn’t have to take years and years., we don’t have to go through endless therapy sessions and we certainly don’t have to get out there again and chase love. The secret ingredient is actually doing something contrary to what you would believe and that is entering into Attraction mode becoming so magnetic to what it is you want that is drawn to you. This is when life becomes simple becomes fun and when the right partner will appear.

I haven’t met a woman yet who WASN’T carrying baggage from her divorce. Some are able to move on and be happy and others may find themselves stuck in ruminating loops of thought like a dark cloud hanging over their heads. Life is good, yet, they are stuck. It’s a silent suffering, a suffocation of the soul, a struggle only a woman who’s been through divorce understands. It’s a camp no one wants to belong to. Before I created divorcing gracefully and beyond, I was in the second camp. I couldn’t get out of my own head. It’s when I began to understand, neural programming, and quantum physics that I began to come free. As a psychotherapist, I couldn’t understand why I wasn’t able to help myself. I realized I was using the wrong tools and I also realized that no matter what you do some things you can’t do by yourself. I had to put aside the shame and search for the way to become free. And now I’m celebrating my 13th wedding anniversary with my forever husband Michael if I could do it, you could do it too.

You think the universe is late… but it’s actually on time. And baby, it’s working for you in ways you can’t even see yet. Divorce is a spiritual journey, especially in our 2nd chapter.

Quantum physics says energy responds to the observer. Translation: what you focus on becomes the path you walk.

So when you’re healing after divorce… when your heart feels bruised… when you’re scared you’ll never love again… remember this:

You are not waiting for love. Love is already reorganizing itself around you. Your only job is to stay focused on the vision…not the wound… not the timeline… not the past.

Because your energy is a signal.
And every time you say “I’m worthy,”
every time you take one brave step toward the life you want, every time you choose to believe again… you shift your entire reality.

The universe isn’t testing you.

It’s aligning you.

And the man who can meet your heart? He’s already on your timeline…
you’re just catching up to the version of you who can receive him.

Stay focused.
Stay open.
Stay in the frequency of love.

Your future partner is already feeling you.

The Strong Woman’s Trap: Why You Keep Choosing Men Who Need “Fixing”

If you’re a strong woman, this one will hit you right in the gut…

For most of your life, you were trained, not consciously, but through trauma, family dynamics, and survival patterns, to be the one who holds it all together.

The rescuer.
The emotional anchor.
The one who reads the room, softens the blow, holds the peace, and makes everyone “okay.”

So when a man shows up broken, lost, chaotic, emotionally unavailable, or in need of saving…
your nervous system whispers:

“Ah. This feels familiar.
This feels like home.”

Not because it’s healthy.

But because your trauma taught you that love is earned, not received.

You learned that your value came from fixing, healing, supporting, and over-functioning.
And so you fell for potential… instead of partnership.

You loved who he could be… instead of who he was showing you he really is.

But here’s the revelation:

A man who needs “fixing” will never be able to love you the way your heart was built to be loved.
Not because he’s a bad man.
But because he’s not ready, and it is not your job to raise a grown adult into emotional maturity.

Your work now is different.

It’s to heal the part of you that believes you have to fight for attention, sacrifice your needs, or shrink your brilliance to feel safe.

It’s to stop choosing men who mirror your wounds, and start choosing men who mirror your worth.

You don’t need a project.
You need a partner.

You don’t need someone to rescue.
You need someone who can meet you, emotionally, spiritually, energetically — right where you are.

And when you heal the trauma response that taught you to “fix,” you finally make space for the man who knows how to love.

The one who doesn’t drain you.
The one who chooses you.
The one who shows up for you.

A strong woman isn’t meant to be a savior.
She’s meant to be cherished.

You don’t need more information, empty therapy sessions, or “closure” from him. You need transformation of your mind and heart. It’s time to leave the past behind and begin to focus on your today and your future. We can’t change the past, but we can influence and command our future.

Your divorce forgot about you, now it’s time for you to forget about it.

11/04/2025

You must speak your dreams. Staying in fear and hold them in is only keeping you stuck. Your divorce is a portal for you to enter into your new timeline. Yes it sucks. But there’s a rebirth happening if you slow down to take a look.

Never give up on love. Many people believe I had an easy path going from divorced to married, but that was anything but the case.

There were many years of suffering, struggle, and uncertainty. I spent seven years solo partnering, but I always kept true to my vision.

I didn’t accept crumbs. I refused to minimize what it was that I was looking for. And just like that, Michael appeared in my life. I can’t believe we’re together almost 13 years.

So in this journey where you are solo partnering, don’t try to take the easy way out. Staying focused on what it is you want is hard but it’s well worth it. Keep going don’t give up.
