EP70 Divorce isn’t a Group Project: Why it’s Okay to See Things Your Way

Send us Fan MailAh, Twixtmas. That magical time of year when no one knows what day it is, we’re all living off leftovers, and PJs become acceptable all-day attire. It’s my absolute favourite week…. but it’s also the time I left the ex-husband.December 28th. A day etched in my memory. For me, it was a whirlwind of grief, anger, relief, and uncertainty. For him? I imagine it was completely different. And here’s the thing: that one day, that same event, was experienced completely differently by everyone involved…..me, the ex, and my kids.That’s the thing about divorce…. it’s never one story. It’s a million stories told through different lenses. Your version, your ex’s version, your kids’ version, your family’s version... and none of them will ever be the same.This week on The Divorce Chapter podcast, I’m diving into why we all process divorce differently, how our unique lenses shape our experiences, and why it’s time to stop caring what others think.In this episode, we’re exploring: ✨ Why your version of divorce is different from anyone else’s (and why that’s okay). ✨ How our experiences are shaped by the unique lenses we see life through…. our upbringing, beliefs, and relationships. ✨ Why you don’t need validation from anyone else for how you feel or the choices you’ve made. ✨ How to embrace YOUR story, YOUR way, as you start writing your next chapter.This isn’t about replaying the past…. it’s about owning your narrative and stepping into your power. As we approach 2025, it’s time to give yourself permission to stop caring what anyone else thinks and create a future that’s true to YOU.As we head into a new year, give yourself permission to let go of the pressure to explain, justify, or validate your choices. Your story, your journey, your truth. That’s all that matters.Sending you strength, love, and leftover cheese this Twixtmas,Sarah x🌸P.S.
