One step at a time.

You deserve the freedom that comes after the struggles of divorce, just as much as your kids do. In order to live the best life that you can possibly live alongside them, you have to believe that you deserve this too.

You. Are. Enough.

You deserve to be heard, understood and accepted. Not everyone will do these things for you, but it doesn’t mean that you are any less important. It means that you need to be that accepting person for yourself, no matter how much time and effort it may take to get there.

It is not impossible!

I hope you’re all having a great new year so far. Sending lots of positivity to you and your families in 2025 :)

Much like life, there are ups and downs when it comes to grief. One day, you might feel on top of the world about your life, while others can feel like you’re dragging your feet.

Grief is no exception to this outcome, and the most important part about knowing this is that it’s normal. Everyone has experienced these ups and downs in one way or another. The most important thing to remember is to embrace how you’re feeling, and give yourself a break.

Don’t be so hard on yourself! This is a challenge, but it can be overcome. You just need to look up to yourself too, and trust that you are headed down the right path :)

Setting your boundaries is the first step to successfully handling a narcissist. They will always focus on what you did wrong, rather than how they made you feel. This is common when they use gaslighting to make you feel like what they are saying about you, is true.

By having your boundaries set, and having a strong, confident mind that you are allowed to feel how you feel, then you are one big step closer to rejecting their actions.

Never let anyone make you feel like how you feel is invalid, simply because they don’t feel the same way. Your feelings are there to be listened to!

Winter is coming quick, as this year seems to fly by!

While it is much easier to miss what was once in your life, it does you no good to dwell on it for too long. Of course, it is healthy to think of those things in a positive light by being grateful for what you had, but looking forward is where it becomes truly rewarding.

The future holds so many more wonderful things that will bring joy to your life — you just need to keep your head up, and your eyes on the horizon. It’s calling out to you! :)

Being there for yourself is far more important than people let themselves believe. Instead, they normally neglect their emotional and mental needs to help the others around them.

In order to give the best love that you can to those around you, you need to be in the right space — mentally and emotionally — to handle it with care.

This does not mean that you are inconsiderate of others, or acting selfishly in a bad way. This simply means that you recognize your worth, and that you will work your hardest at being the best version of yourself for everyone you love .

While it might be easy to focus solely on the destination, the journey is equally important! Every day, on the path to freedom, holds valuable lessons.

What are the lessons that you have learned during your divorce process? Are there things that you are looking to overcome in the near future?

Mental blocks can put a damper on your mood when you want to do something, but simply can’t start.

How do you handle mental blocks? Do you write out how you’re feeling? Or maybe go for a walk?

It can be hard to know where to start when you want to begin your healing process after — or even during — your divorce. It’s a very emotionally draining and stressful process that affects not only your mind, but your body as well.

Focusing on the positive around you will only get easier the more you do it. Start with one good thing about the day, then the next day, try to find two good things.

This entire process is a step-by-step, day-by-day journey with normal ups and downs. But, the good part is, the only way you can go is up! Eventually, those ‘downs’ won’t affect you like they used to and you can focus on the most fulfilling parts of your life :)
