Separation & Self-Worth: Redefining What It Means to Be Enough

Episode OverviewIn this episode we sit down with Kate Daly, co-founder of Amicable, to explore how self-worth, identity, and personal growth are intertwined with relationships - and what happens when those relationships end.Kate shares her wisdom from years of supporting couples through separation and co-parenting, offering a compassionate reframe: divorce isn’t a failure - it’s a change in how a family operates so everyone can thrive.Together, we talk about how easily self-worth becomes tied to roles - wife, mother, partner, provider - and what it means to reclaim a sense of identity beyond them. From people-pleasing and invisible labour to fear, shame, and rebuilding from the ground up, this is a deeply human, empowering look at what it means to rediscover yourself after loss.Key Discussion PointsHow self-worth gets tied to our roles — and what happens when those roles change.The invisible load women carry and why it’s still undervalued.Reframing divorce as courage, not failure.Listener TakeawaysDivorce doesn’t erase your worth — it reveals it.You’re more than your role or relationship.Pause, breathe, and ground before you react.AMICABLE LINKS (2) Instagram  (25) amicable: Overview | LinkedIn  (1256) amicable divorce - YouTube Join the Conversation Have you experienced a time when your sense of worth was tied to your role in a relationship?
