Thank you for that wonderful intro and thanks for having me. Gloria, I'm excited to speak with you. Gloria Grace Rand Well, I am too. For those of you who have been, for instance, possibly listening to this for the last year, you may have noticed occasionally I have brought up the fact that I am separated at the moment from my hubby, who is a wonderful guy. Wonderful guy. And it's time. It's time for a change. Let's just say it that way. I'm going to leave it at that for the time being. So I know my story, but I want to know your story since I sort of alluded to it a little bit, having gone through your own heartbreak. So what was it about that that really did kind of catalyze you into this new movement of being this breakup recovery coach? Tal Yardeni Yeah, great question. So this thing called the pandemic happened, I don't know if you've heard of it might have been affected. And so prior to that, for 13 years I lived in New York and I was a performer, I was a singer and an actress doing my thing. And during that time I had gone through a series of what I like to call hot mess express relationships. And during the pandemic I really had the time to reflect and take the time to look and see what were the patterns there and why did this keep showing up in my life and to be able to do some of that really deep healing. And also I had to see what I was going to do career wise because my industry had shut down. So it was so interesting. A few of my friends kept saying, life coach, life coach, life coach. And that had never come to me before, but I really sat with that and I felt like that I was led to that. And so I looked into certification. I got certified as a life and relationship coach. And then when I was thinking about who do I want to work with specifically? I got the idea I want to work with women who are going through a breakup or a divorce. Because I have lived that experience, and I know how painful that is. And being on the other side of it and how I got myself there, I had wished that I'd had something that I created. Now I wish that I had had that for myself then. So I knew that it would be super useful because when we're going through something, I really do believe it's one of the most painful things you can go through in life. And when we go through something like that, you feel so alone. You feel kind of like you're on your own island. And so I created this program because I wanted women to know you are not alone in this. We tend to shame and blame ourselves so much when we're going through something like this. And so I wanted women to know you are not alone in this. There is a way to move through this. This can be something that grows you, even if it is freaking painful. And I wanted to have a safe space so that women could do that. And go through that. Gloria Grace Rand That's wonderful and so needed and just trying to think here because there's a couple of different ways I want to go, I want to ollow up with this and my mind is going blank. So I'm just going to skip on and just ask you about because you had lovingly sent me some notes about it because I just am having one of those days. So brain fart. I think they call it lovingly. Tal Yardeni Totally okay. Gloria Grace Rand So what does a spiritual practice have to do with your breakup recovery? Tal Yardeni Yeah, that's a good question. So, so many times we think that we can fix it. We want to be the ones to fix it, to make it right. Where do we go from here? When you understand that there's something bigger than you running the show, you can stop relying on you and kind of put the brakes on and surrender it over to a power that's greater than us. When you understand that and you understand your oneness with this power, it's life changing and transformative in so many ways because for so much of our lives, we're trying to figure it out. How do we do this? How do we get to the next step? We're fixers. And so when we allow for a power greater than us to lead us. And to show us, it can really put you in a state of awe. Because if you for so long tried to control your life, you see that the controlling isn't working. And so it doesn't mean that we become complacent in life, but it means that we're asking for guidance. And when you're asking for that guidance, you are going to get clear direction and clear guidance. And you've probably gotten it all of your life, but you maybe haven't been connected to it, so you didn't know to trust it. Gloria Grace Rand Yeah, and I can relate to that tremendously because was, where I wasn't paying attention to it and now from where I am now that I do lean on source, God, universe, whatever you want to call it, I tend to default to God because I was raised Catholic. And even though I'm not practicing it anymore, that's still the word that's most comfortable to me. And in just reflecting from my situation that I've gone through the last few years, that really leaning into connecting with God, spending a lot of time in meditation, that has helped me tremendously to be able to manage dealing with things like, okay, number one, asking my husband for a divorce. That took… It took me well, technically years that I was sort of daydreaming about it. But then when I finally made the decision, it still took me another year to actually go to and actually talk to him about it. That sort of is getting me now, I think, to where I was trying to go originally. What have you found to be the biggest challenge that people going through a breakup face? Tal Yardeni Acceptance. That I would say is one of the biggest things when I'm coaching women. Acceptance of self. Acceptance that it's over, and acceptance of who their partner was because what happens is that when we tend to break up or get a divorce or a separation, we start to romanticize that person, which means that we look at just the good parts. And it's not about villainizing your ex, but it's really seeing your ex in his her totality. There were things that weren't working....
