    Ivy Insights

    The LDS Divorce Coach podcast is an incredible resource that offers support, guidance, and inspiration for individuals who have experienced divorce. As someone who went through a divorce over a year ago, I find myself continuously returning to this podcast for its insightful content and comforting presence. Listening to Emily feels like having a wise and loving friend by my side, providing practical advice and understanding for the complex situations and messy emotions that arise during the divorce process. Not only do I enjoy the podcast, but I have also had coaching with Emily herself, and her genuine concern and love for her clients are evident in every interaction. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone who has gone through or is going through a divorce.

    One of the best aspects of The LDS Divorce Coach podcast is Emily's ability to relate to her listeners on a personal level. She shares stories from her own experiences after divorce, providing relatable examples that make you feel understood and less alone. Her insights into life after divorce are incredibly valuable, as she offers practical tools, strategies, and advice that can be applied in everyday situations. Whether you're navigating co-parenting or trying to rebuild your life post-divorce, Emily's episodes offer hope and guidance for moving forward.

    While The LDS Divorce Coach podcast is undeniably beneficial for those going through divorce or separation, it may not appeal as much to individuals who haven't experienced these circumstances. Some episodes may seem specific to divorce-related topics, which could limit the audience reach for those seeking general self-improvement content. However, even if you haven't been divorced, Emily's wisdom and advice are still applicable to various aspects of life and can be beneficial for anyone looking to uplevel their life.

    In conclusion, The LDS Divorce Coach podcast is an invaluable resource that provides support and inspiration for those navigating life after divorce or separation. Emily's compassionate nature shines through in every episode, making her listeners feel heard and understood. Her practical advice and relatable stories offer guidance and hope for a brighter future. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone who has experienced divorce or is seeking personal growth and improvement in their lives.

    When I saw this quote from Eckhart Tolle that I opened the podcast with, it really hit me. It hit me so hard that it inspired thoughts to spew out of me that I felt would be very pertinent to so many. It is so important to remember that we are not our emotions. I realized that a couple of weeks ago, I fell prey to personifying the way I was feeling. I began to identify with it. I felt like it was part of me. I had forgotten that feelings come and go. Just because I was sad, did not mean I was a sad person and it would last forever. I see this all of the time with my clients. Narrative therapy is what I will often use to try to objectify and separate those feelings from the identity. When a person says they are anxious or have anxiety, it has become part of their identity. It has become something that has been felt so consistently that it is now a part of the subconscious and is a way of life. Narrative therapy suggests to separate these entities by objectifying them. For example, labeling feelings of anxiety and painting them into a character such as "the old lady" or whatever. That way, you can ask when they remember "the old lady" first showing up. Can you see how this can begin to separate emotions from idenity? Join me in this podcast and listen to some practical examples of how this occurs and 3 steps that will help to combat identifying so much with our emotions.

    In this podcast I talk about how difficult communication is between anyone who seems to be the cause of pain for you. What would happen if you were asked to give a speech and while you were walking up about to deliver it, you totally stubbed your toe? Would you be able to talk right away? Would you have the senses to say everything as planned? Not at all...you'd definitely need some time to compose yourself. Same goes for our emotional pain. We just may not have the words in the moment when we are "triggered" into feeling a lot of pain. So, I offer some helpful strategies around this, so you can communicate better with your coparent, spouse, child, coworker...or WHOMEVER!

I hope it doesn't for you, but just in case, I shared my perspective which I believe many share. * It is interesting that once divorced, you fall into the category of Single Mom.

    I've got a little secret to share in this podcast that you might not be ready to hear. So, when you're ready...go listen! You won't regret it. * This podcast actually stems from a time in my life when I was struggling and I kept asking my mom for advice. "Tell me your secrets!" I'd say. "I want to know." She would keep telling me I wasn't in the right frame of mind to hear it yet and kept putting me off and putting me off. Well, what does that do to anyone? It sparks their curiosity and makes them want to know....NOW!!! * So when I made her tell me it started off with the phrase, "You're not going to want to hear this." Ha ha. That's not the most fun thing to hear before someone proceeds to offer advice. But, it was very simple y'all and you probably need to hear it, too. * On the back end of the podcast, I talk a little bit about what real self-care is and what it isn't. Interesting that the tough message from my mom is actually what proves to care for the self THE VERY BEST! * Link in BIO. EPISODE 101. LOVE YOU GUYS!

Growing up as a kid who was always overweight, it was super hard to feel confident enough to jump into the physical fitness world that the small town had to offer. Nobody really teaches you how to break out of unhealthy habits at that age, but Jordan exercised a lot of fortitude going into college to take his first steps in a healthier direction. * Next comes love, then comes marriage, then comes babies in a baby carriage (ok, that sounds familiar) and sometimes those things throw wrenches in the physical fitness area. We can ALL relate! * Then Jordan pushed through and broke through some barriers he never could before to get to where he is now. 11% body fat and training to GAIN weight/muscle. He can't believe he's stepping on the scale and hoping it'll go up. A place he's never been before. * Come listen in to find out his secrets on my 100th podcast episode!

Sometimes once we're freshly out of that relationship, the sting of loneliness hits us hard at first and literally blinds our memory of how bad it was in the relationship. * We start freaking out and want to either get back into said relationship or jump into another one straight quick. Desire to be with someone can get so out of wack that it actually screws up our chances. Have you ever wanted something so badly that it just couldn't work?!

Sometimes when things are exceptionally tough, it's hard to be guided and recognize what we should do because our minds have been quite frenzied. And what about our hearts that have been broken? How do we separate feelings from the Spirit with our own jumbled up mess. Listen in as I separate and compartmentalize how it's possible to receive even more guidance whether you are going through tough times or not. This message is for EVERYONE.

    Betrayal Trauma occurs when someone we are significantly attached to lets us down and/or betrays our trust in a critical way. Betrayal trauma recovery more commonly addresses the spouses affected by pornography abuse, infidelity, and/or sex addiction. More studies are being corroborated to show that spouses who experience the daggers of mistrust associated with repeated relapses of pornography use and/or sex addiction are in fact experiencing complex trauma. In order for adequate recovery to occur, it is crucial to get into a program where it is addressed the appropriate way. In this podcast, we hear the story of a woman who's husband is a pornography addict. Her journey of healing is inspiring as she found the right fit for her in the WORTH program. We also hear from a therapist within that program who informs about the terms and processes within betrayal trauma recovery. It's so important to give a voice to those who sometimes become invisible in their spouse's recovery. These stories are difficult to share and take so much bravery and courage. Please join me in supporting her and everyone who's experienced this hardship. There is absolutely so much hope for you!
