77. The reality of breaking up when you have kids

Breaking up is hard. Breaking up when you have children is something else entirely. Because you don’t just leave. You don’t get distance. And you don’t get the space most people rely on to actually process what’s happening.In this episode, I’m talking about the reality of separating when you have kids. The emotional weight, the practical reality, and the parts that nobody really prepares you for.This isn’t about how to move on.It’s about why it feels so different when you can’t fully step away.If you’re in it right now, or if it’s something you’ve never really thought about before, this will help you understand why it can feel so heavy, complicated, and hard to navigate.🎧 mentioned in this episode:👉🏽 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The 5 Villages Every Mum Needs ⁠ a free audio guide for mothers who feel like they were never meant to do this alone. 🫂 Join a loving community of mums in IT'S A LOT – free for 30 days.We talk about this kind of stuff in It's A Lot.
