What if you've been measuring your divorce wins all wrong?In this special episode, I had the mic flipped on me — joining Jackie Pilossoph, founder of Divorced Girl Smiling, as her guest to talk about an article I wrote on redefining what it truly means to win in divorce. It's a conversation that's close to my heart, and I knew I had to bring it home to you here.We talk so much about the obvious markers of divorce success — custody arrangements, financial settlements, division of assets. But true winning? It runs so much deeper than that.In this episode, we explore:= Why the traditional scoreboard of divorce — legal wins, financial outcomes, and asset division — can actually work against you- What real winning looks and feels like: being present with your kids, trusting your intuition, and showing up as yourself again- How to stop getting triggered and detoured by the chaos, and start protecting your energy and your health- Why squeezing your own needs out of the equation is never a win — and what to do instead- How mothers just like you are divorcing smarter, healing faster, and reclaiming their powerThis episode is a reframe, a recalibrator, and a reminder of what your real priorities are in this often messy and painful process. Only you can decide what winning truly means to you — but I hope this conversation helps you see it more clearly.—If you’re a professional, independent mother facing off with divorce, worried about your emotional wellbeing, your kids and your future…and want a better way to navigate it all, here’s how we can help:FREE DIVORCE WORKSHOPBOOK A FREE STRATEGY CALLThe Intuitive Divorce Podcast helps mothers navigate the messy waters of divorce to achieve the best outcomes for themselves and their kids.

If you've been hiding under the laundry, the to-do lists, the carpool runs, and the constant giving — I see you. And I want you to know: running out of places to hide isn't a crisis. It's your turning point.In this episode, I'm talking directly to the moms who are crawling out of their skin and don't know where to start. Because that feeling? It means you're ready.In this conversation, you’ll discover why…- Your breaking point is actually a beginning. When you've truly run out of options, that's when the real healing starts — not a sign something is wrong with you.- "Self-centered" isn't a dirty word. There's a difference between selfish and centered in self — and learning that distinction may be the most important shift you make in your divorce.- You know what you want — you've just forgotten how to ask for it. Most moms I work with say they just want "peace and happiness." We dig into what that really means and how to actually get there.—If you’re a professional, independent mother facing off with divorce, worried about your emotional wellbeing, your kids and your future…and want a better way to navigate it all, here’s how we can help:FREE DIVORCE WORKSHOPBOOK A FREE STRATEGY CALLThe Intuitive Divorce Podcast helps mothers navigate the messy waters of divorce to achieve the best outcomes for themselves and their kids.

There's a track playing on repeat in the background of so many women's lives during divorce — one that says you have to explain yourself, justify your choices, and keep everyone else comfortable, even at your own expense.In this episode, I'm pulling that pattern into the light, because the moment you see it is the moment you can change it.- Your divorce is not a zero-sum game. Two truths can co-exist: I want out AND I care about how I do it.- Boundaries aren't cold or dismissive — they're one of the most loving things you can do for yourself and your family.- You are not here to fix or comfort everyone through a decision that is yours to make.Repeat after me: I am no longer available for that.Getting clear on what you're no longer available for is the gateway to everything waiting for you on the other side. 💛—If you’re a professional, independent mother facing off with divorce, worried about your emotional wellbeing, your kids and your future…and want a better way to navigate it all, here’s how we can help:FREE DIVORCE WORKSHOPBOOK A FREE STRATEGY CALLThe Intuitive Divorce Podcast helps mothers navigate the messy waters of divorce to achieve the best outcomes for themselves and their kids.
