  • Dating With Intention Post Divorce

    Dating With Intention Post Divorce
    Oct 22 2025
    I've been married, divorced, and maybe dated a few questionable people in between. Now it’s time for a list—not of my regrets, but of what I actually want in a partner. 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 time around. I've learned that making a list isn’t shallow—it’s self-respect on paper.

  • My Decision To Not Have More Kids Post Divorce

    My Decision To Not Have More Kids Post Divorce
    Oct 15 2025
    After the divorce dust settles, there comes a new kind of freedom — the power to choose what’s next. For me, that means choosing not to have more kids. In this episode, I share my feelings of the relief, the guilt, the clarity, and the joy of embracing life as a one-kid mom who’s done making babies. 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've had a vasectomy, you might be the perfect man for me. After divorce, we get an opportunity to create the life we want and deserve. It's our body, our life, our choice.

  • Primary Coparent Fatigue (Reflect and Replay)

    Primary Coparent Fatigue (Reflect and Replay)
    Oct 8 2025
    In this week's episode I share my journey of coparenting. For some reason, I thought that divorce and coparenting meant complete shared responsibility. I soon realized that although I was now divorced, my role as 'Primary Parent' still remained. All the decision-making and managing our child’s life still falls on me. I quickly became resentful. Even though my responsibilities haven’t changed, our relationship has. I could not expect a show of appreciation or a thank-you. I learned not to expect acknowledgment of all the physical and mental work I put in to make our new dynamic work. Having expectations leads to disappointment. I’ve learned to do what I need to do for our child. If a thank you comes, that’s great. If it doesn’t, it’s not going to stop me from being the best mom I can be.
