In this episode, I share my dating checklist that isn’t about perfection—but about clarity. In making a list, I focused on defining my core values, distinguishing between wants and needs, and being determined to stop repeating patterns that didn’t serve me the first...

I also share how I've had to become intentional about my dating life. Deciding to only date men who have children already and if you'v...

Even though my responsibilities haven’t changed, our relationship has. I could not expec...

In this week's episode I share the emotional reality that many moms face during and after divorce: the crushing weight of grief, anxiety, and sadness — and the constant demand to keep going. The often-overlooked truth is that moms don't always have the luxury of fully processing their pain, because life doesn't stop when your marriage does. There are lunches to pack, homework to help with, bills to pay, and kids who still need you ...

On this week's episode I share my journey to self-acceptance. There was a time that I had no self-esteem or self-worth. I desperately sought approval from my partner and was willing to change or shrink parts of myself to please him. Through therapy, I found the strength and love within myself to start to show up in my life as my authentic self. A bad marriage can make you a shell of yourself. Going through my divorce helped me fin...

Getting back out there after divorce is scary. I had spent years in a sexless marriage. I had learned, out of necessity, to suppress that part of myself. Eventually, I decided that I was ready to get back out there and get me some. Before I did, I took time to work on my self-worth, self-confidence, and spend time getting to know myself sexually again. All my hard work paid off because once I got back out there, I experienced the b...
