It is bittersweet to publish my last episode for this podcast. My hope is that the episodes and guests resonated with you, especially if you are divorced or going through the process. In this episode I discuss setting boundaries, coparenting, the power of manifestation and taking time to focus on yourself. Of course I have a few dating stories and some advice if you are on the dating apps.My love for coffee and conversations led me to start recording. It was a risk in sharing my story, but sometimes life we have to step out on faith. And if our plans do not work out, we try again. May we all live by the Confucius quote: Our greatest joy is not in never falling but in rising every time we fall.
