375. How to Handle Mother's Day When It Just Feels…Weird

What if Mother's Day didn't feel like a celebration but something you had to emotionally prepare for?   In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I get real about what it's like to navigate Mother's Day as a divorced mom. Whether you're not with your kids this year, not being celebrated the way you used to be, or just feeling off, this one's for you.    I talk about the identity shifts, the unmet expectations, and the quiet grief that can creep in on a day that's supposed to be joyful. I also share tangible ways to take your power back. From starting new traditions to planning solo time to asking for what you need (instead of waiting to be recognized), this episode is your reminder that you deserve to be celebrated even if you're the one doing the celebrating.   Resources Mentioned: Sign up for ReNewU waitlist to get early access: https://products.ambershaw.com/signature-waitlist Nail Your Niche: https://ambershaw.samcart.com/products/nail-your-niche   What I Discuss: Why Mother's Day can feel complicated after divorce Identity shifts, loneliness, and grieving what used to be When you're not with your kids and it feels heavy Why you're allowed to want acknowledgment (and how to ask for it) Planning something for yourself—even if it's small Reclaiming the day and redefining celebration   Key Takeaways: "You deserve to be celebrated even if you're the one doing the celebrating." – Amber Shaw   "Mother's Day can be beautiful and complicated at the same time." – Amber Shaw   "You're allowed to ask for what you need.
