Show Notes

Going through a divorce can be one of the most emotionally draining experiences a person can go through.

It's filled with a range of emotions such as anger, resentment, grief, and regret. The demands of managing these emotions can often feel overwhelming, making it difficult to manage everyday tasks and obligations- like showing up for your students.

But, with the right guidance and tools, it’s possible to take back control of the situation and move towards a more peaceful future.

Welcome to episode 21 of the Take Notes with Jen Rafferty podcast! In this episode, I’m speaking with juris doctorate, certified divorce coach, and a certified Mind Magic practitioner, Sharri Freedman.

She helps people manage the difficult emotions of dealing with divorce.Through her work, she provides clients with tools that create a sense of peace and calm that regulate the nervous system so they can transition from simply reacting to the situation to being able to respond in a more constructive way.

Divorce stress is real, and it's all encompassing. It’s not about “just showing up”, whether it's by distraction or compartmentalizing. Because, pushing through and keeping it together is not what we do here.

Today, it’s all about highlighting the real feeling of loss associated with divorce in a way that normalizes the grief you feel with the same space and mass as the loss of a life.

And, most importantly, to let you know that you are not alone.

Stay empowered,


Jen
