Divorce, Grief, and Starting Over After 40 with Kelly LaVallie

What do you do when life completely blindsides you? When the plan you had for your future disappears in a moment? How do you move on after losing the person you thought you'd spend forever with? In this powerful episode, I sit down with Kelly LaVallie to talk about healing after loss, finding strength during grief, and learning how to start over, especially when life doesn’t go the way you thought it would. Kelly shares the story of losing her husband to a sudden heart attack, how she navigated the trauma with her daughters, and how she found her way back to herself in the middle of the pain. We dive into what starting over after 40 really looks like, the emotional weight of divorce, and the beauty that can come from embracing authenticity, even when it’s messy. We also talk about the loneliness so many of us feel, especially in the age of social media, and how sharing your story can be the thing that connects us all. If you’re going through a hard season, feeling stuck, or wondering what’s next after everything changes, this episode is for you. 🌐 Guest Info.
