The Secret to Self-Love After Divorce 

In the wake of divorce, your world may be upended. Instead of giving in to what feels like chaos, decide to use this moment to take inventory. Explore the parts of yourself to change and grow. Seize this time for real self-love.

Self-care and self-love after divorce – it’s not as easy as it sounds, but it’s more important than you think. In the weeks and months following a divorce, you may feel overwhelmed by logistics. It’s important not to abandon yourself in the process.

In this episode, Nancy talks about her personal journey after divorce in her 30s, and shares tips on how to stay happy, centered, and productive, not just for yourself, but also as a dedicated parent.

Doing new things for yourself – especially when you’re on your own – can be scary, but it’s crucial! Self-love isn't about 100% self-acceptance – it starts with an honest assessment about where you are now, and what you want your life to look like from here on in.

Nancy is here to remind you – self-love is all about change. Ask yourself: What do I need to be happy? What can I do differently? How can I shake things up?

Nancy remembers when she was newly divorced, she felt that she had to stay on top of her emotions and not get discouraged by the waves that threatened to crash down. Everything got better the minute she decided to take advantage of the change and ride those waves to different shores.

If this time in your life is calling you forward, answer that call! Showing up for yourself in every way is the ultimate act of self-love.

6:57 - “When you're in a post-divorce or midlife moment, and you want something new in your life to fill an empty space, starting with YOURSELF is the best bet.”
