On Divorce Guilt

Going through a divorce process can be lonely. It's a journey that no one can really ever prepare you for, let alone the emotional rollercoaster of 'mom guilt' and 'divorce guilt' that comes part and parcel with the decision to leave.

In this episode I share my vulnerability and parts of my story. How I navigate mom guilt and divorce guilt and ultimately give myself permission to be happy.
