Divorce and the Path to Healing with Coach Marisa Lupo

Find Marisa: marisalupocoaching.com In Facebook: Untying the Knots of Divorce Women's Group (private group, request to join) About Marisa Marisa is a certified life coach who has mastered strategies that empower women in her private practice to cultivate an authentic life overflowing with love, meaning and passion. After having checked all the boxes that she thought were going to lead her to the happiness she craved, something deep inside her was still missing.  Purpose emerged through her most difficult time; an entangled divorce with two children, a very opinionated Italian family without much support. She developed tools and strategies to untie the knots of divorce that bound her and started living a life of freedom.  In her coaching she guides women through untying the knots of divorce and teaches them how to emerge into their highest self.  Show Notes Women often make check lists of what they think they want when they're growing up and imagining their future.  But, those lists are often incomplete (simply because we don't know everything!). Having a relationship with ourselves is often left off that list (cultivating love for ourselves and taking care not to lose ourselves in service to our family). When we divorce, we experience a crisis of identity. "I'm no longer someone's wife".  It can feel like we've lost ourselves.  If you are considering divorce, do NOT make a decision from a place of reaction.  Get a coach who can be neutral (not a friend, not a family member) and who can give you tools and processes to work through it.  Get into a place emotionally where you can make good decisions.  It is normal to feel isolated when you're going through a divorce. You may feel numb but you have to be willing to really look at what's happening and feel your emotions. Just like a caterpillar, you are in a transition and you have to go through it to emerge.  A coach can help you learn to dismantle stories, defuse triggers and through unconditional love for yourself and others, find a way to forgiveness and freedom.  ==================== quitproofkids.com If this episode resonated with you, you might enjoy our free People Skillz community — a structured space to practice steadier, more intentional communication.
