Divorce can make your whole life feel strange, like the identity you used to count on no longer fits. In this episode, I talk about how to reset your identity after divorce in a way that feels grounded instead of chaotic. Are you really starting over or are you standing in a hallway with the old door closed and a row of new doors in front of you. Who do you want to be as you walk through the next one?

I walk you through how your nervous system, your boundaries, and your daily choices shape your identity now, and I share questions that help you see yourself more clearly. Who are you when nobody needs you? What lights you up instead of draining you? I also guide you through a three column journal reset that explores who you no longer are, who you are right now, and who you are becoming, along with a central question to keep returning to: What does the next version of me need in order to emerge? By the end you have a kinder, more intentional way to reset your identity after divorce and to build a life that feels closer to who you really are.
