Life After Divorce: My Journey Back to Self - Part 1

"Waking up one morning in my new place by myself as a divorced, single mom in this pretty much empty townhome... it was this weird paradox of freedom, that I had so desperately longed for, but then also that realization that it was so completely different." The road to finding yourself again after a decades long relationship is truly a journey of ‘unbecoming’ by unlearning everything you thought you were supposed to be and rediscovering who you really are.  Walk with me in this first of 2 episodes as we talk about the healing process of redefining my identity in this new season of life and touch on some really tough questions:  Was I letting God down?  Was it really what was best for my kids?  What does ‘starting over’ even look like after that long? Whether you’ve been divorced or found yourself single after a long-term relationship that has left you feeling broken, lacking confidence, or even worthless, after listening to this episode, my hope is that you would be encouraged.  You are not alone and this is not where your story ends. Beauty from ashes. Your story has just begun.
