Drawing from her experience guiding thousands of clients through high-stakes divorces, Diana shares the patterns that quietly lead to disconnection, the costly mistakes men make early in the process, and how to approach divorce strategically rather than emotionally. The conversation dives into power dynamics, protecting your role as a father, and what separates a destructive divorce from one that sets you up for a stronger future. Diana also unpacks how technology and AI are reshaping the divorce landscape—and how men can use these tools to stay informed, empowered, and ahead of the process. Inspiration Verse: Proverbs 4:23 “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” Resources: https://www.romanovlaw.com/

You've done the therapy.Listened to the podcasts.Read the books.So why are you still hurting?In this special episode, Dawn shares why understanding alone isn't always enough to create change—and why true healing sometimes asks us to lift our gaze beyond ourselves.As someone with a history of religious trauma, Dawn never expected prayer to become part of this podcast. But after years of healing, she discovered that there are moments when insight, effort, and self-awareness reach their limits.Sometimes healing requires surrender.Not giving up.Not checking out.Trusting that you don't have to carry everything alone.Whether you call it God, Creator, Love, Source, or something else entirely, this episode offers a simple prayer for the woman who is tired, overwhelmed, and ready to receive support.Take a breath.Lift your gaze.And remember:I trust that I am not walking alone.Support the show✨Join the Cocoon Community - your people are waiting! ✨

In this powerful episode of The Breaking Free Podcast, I reconnect with Adrian D'Amico for a raw conversation about loss, rebuilding, masculinity, purpose and personal transformation. Adrian opens up about one of the darkest chapters of his life during the plandemic, losing his real estate business, coaching career, marriage and identity, before finding himself living back at his mother's house at 42 years old. But instead of staying broken, Adrian chose to rebuild. The conversation dives deep into resilience, fatherhood, self-reflection, dating after divorce, mindset, visualisation and the power of creating a new reality after life falls apart. Adrian also shares how starting his podcast “Conversations with Adrian” opened unexpected doors, leading him to interviews with major figures including Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Dr. Christiane Northrup. I also shares parts of my own journey from launching my podcast after Adrian's encouragement to eventually finding love and purpose through the process. This is an episode about starting over, backing yourself and realising that sometimes losing everything becomes the beginning of becoming who you were meant to be.

Beth is also the author of Stronger Than You Know—a must-read for any woman navigating divorce and financial independence.Beth has worked behind the scenes of high-asset, high-conflict divorces—where emotions run high, assets can be hidden, and the wrong financial decision can impact your future for decades.But what makes this conversation so powerful… is how she brings humanity into the numbers.We talk about: - Why fear, grief, and urgency should never drive financial decisions - What really happens behind the scenes in complex divorces - How to protect yourself when assets aren't fully transparent - Why the “day after divorce” isn't the transformation—but the beginning of it Beth also shares a deeply moving client story that perfectly captures what The Rewrite is all about: Sometimes life doesn't go as planned… but what unfolds can be even more aligned, peaceful, and true. Connect with Beth: Websites: www.bethkraszewski.com and www.purposefulwealthadvisors.comInstagramFacebookLinkedIn Book: Stronger Than You Know (available on Amazon)

Everyone tells you to move on.Stay busy. Stay productive.

Transcript:Da: Det var en smuk forårsdag, og solens stråler sneg sig ind gennem de store glasvinduer i Danmarks Museum for Videnskab og Teknologi.En: It was a beautiful spring day, and the sun's rays sneaked in through the large glass windows at the Danmarks Museum for Videnskab og Teknologi.Da: Freja kunne mærke den friske forårsbrise, da hun trådte ind med sine børn, Kasper og Astrid, ved sin side.En: Freja could feel the fresh spring breeze as she entered with her children, Kasper and Astrid, by her side.Da: Museet var fyldt med familier, der nød påskeferien, og Freja håbede på en speciel dag med sine børn.En: The museum was filled with families enjoying the Easter holiday, and Freja hoped for a special day with her children.Da: Freja kiggede på Kasper, hendes 14-årige søn.En: Freja looked at Kasper, her 14-year-old son.Da: Hans blik var fjernt, og han slentrede bag dem med hænderne begravet i sine bukselommer.En: His gaze was distant, and he lingered behind them with his hands buried in his pockets.Da: Kasper havde haft det svært med deres nylige skilsmisse, og hun ønskede så inderligt at nå ham, især nu i påsken.En: Kasper had struggled with their recent divorce, and she dearly wished to reach him, especially now at Easter.Da: Astrid, derimod, var fuld af energi.En: Astrid, on the other hand, was full of energy.Da: Hendes øjne lyste, da hun så de mange farverige bannere og hørte børns latter rundt omkring dem.En: Her eyes lit up as she saw the many colorful banners and heard children's laughter around them.Da: "Mor, se!"En: "Mom, look!"Da: udbrød hun og pegede på en interaktiv dinosaurudstilling.En: she exclaimed, pointing at an interactive dinosaur exhibit.Da: Uden at vente på svar, trak hun Freja med sig hen til udstillingen.En: Without waiting for a response, she pulled Freja towards the exhibit.Da: Freja sendte Kasper et opmuntrende smil, men han nikkede bare stumt og fulgte efter dem.En: Freja sent Kasper an encouraging smile, but he just nodded silently and followed them.Da: Trods hans modvillighed, ønskede hun at skabe et bånd mellem dem, et lille glimt af glæde på en ellers stille påskeferie.En: Despite his reluctance, she wanted to create a bond between them, a small glimpse of joy in an otherwise quiet Easter holiday.Da: Efter at have set lidt rundt nærmede de sig en spændende udstilling om rummet.En: After looking around a bit, they approached an exciting space exhibit.Da: Den lovede gåder og opgaver, der kunne løses som en familie.En: It promised puzzles and challenges to solve as a family.Da: Freja så sit snit.En: Freja saw an opportunity.Da: "Hvad med denne?En: "How about this one?Da: Skal vi prøve?"En: Shall we try it?"Da: foreslog hun med en håbefuld tone.En: she suggested with a hopeful tone.Da: Kasper trak på skuldrene, men Freja så et svagt glimt af interesse.En: Kasper shrugged, but Freja noticed a faint glimmer of interest.Da: Astrid sprudlede af begejstring: "Jeg vil være astronaut!En: Astrid bubbled with excitement: "I want to be an astronaut!Da: Kom så, Kasper!"En: Come on, Kasper!"Da: Hun tog hans hånd og trak ham ind i udstillingen.En: She took his hand and pulled him into the exhibit.Da: Pludselig fandt de sig selv i et kapløb om at samle en skibsmodulmodel.En: Suddenly, they found themselves in a race to assemble a spacecraft model.Da: Kasper begyndte langsomt at engagere sig.En: Kasper began to engage slowly.Da: Der var noget ved de små, mekaniske dele og Frejas forsøg på at passe dem sammen, der mindede ham om tiden før alt blev kompliceret.En: There was something about the small, mechanical parts and Freja's efforts to fit them together that reminded him of the time before everything became complicated.Da: De arbejdede sammen i et par minutter, hjulede og grinede, da astrid fjollede rundt og forsøgte at finde de rette stykker.En: They worked together for a few minutes, laughing and joking around, as Astrid played around and tried to find the right pieces.Da: I et øjeblik forsvandt al spændingen, og der var kun lyden af deres fælles latter, der fyldte rummet.En: For a moment, all the tension disappeared, and there was only the sound of their shared laughter filling the room.Da: Da de endelig trådte udenfor museet, var der en ny form for lethed i luften.En: When they finally stepped outside the museum, there was a new kind of lightness in the air.Da: Astrid snakkede uafbrudt om rumrejser og stjerner, mens Freja og Kasper delte et kort, men meningsfuldt blik.En: Astrid talked nonstop about space travel and stars, while Freja and Kasper shared a brief but meaningful glance.Da: Det var hverken spænding eller vrede, men snarere en stille forståelse om at ville prøve igen.En: It was neither tension nor anger, but rather a quiet understanding of wanting to try again.Da: Freja forstod, at de trængte til nye minder, nye traditioner.En: Freja understood that they needed new memories, new traditions.Da: Og Kasper, der stod ved hendes side, erkendte til dels, at forandring kunne være en åbning, ikke kun en afslutning.En: And Kasper, standing by her side, partly recognized that change could be an opening, not just an ending.Da: For hver skridt de tog, var der håb om nye eventyr i deres lille familie.En: With each step they took, there was hope for new adventures in their little family.

Welcome to the Divorce Devil Podcast, where we tackle the real, raw, and often hilarious challenges of recovering from divorce over 40. Hosted by David and Rachel, this episode dives deep into the emotional and logistical battles of splitting assets during a divorce—and how to heal from the process.

Co-parenting with your ex is hard enough. Co-parenting with someone you can't stand? That's a whole other level. In this episode, Nyomi reads a letter from Randy — a divorced dad of two (ages 7 and 10) who is two years out from his divorce and still fighting every step of the way. His ex changes the schedule last minute, talks badly about him in front of the kids, and questions every parenting decision he makes. He's tried to be the bigger person. He's exhausted. And he's asking: how do I do this without losing my mind — or my kids?Nyomi doesn't hold back. She gets personal, sharing her own early co-parenting journey, her experience with mediation, why she still prays for her exes, and why she created The Season of Self-Love specifically for parents who need to heal themselves before they can show up fully for their children. This episode is raw, real, and full of tools you can use right now.WHAT WE COVERRandy's letter — a high-conflict co-parenting situation with two young kidsThe 4 real reasons co-parenting is so damn hard (it's not just your ex)Nyomi's personal story — from toxic co-parenting to healingMindset Shift #1: Your ex is no longer your partner — think coworkerMindset Shift #2: You are co-CEOs of your kids' lives — run it like a businessMindset Shift #3: Your kids are watching everything you doCommunication strategies and real-life scripts you can use todayWhen to shift to parallel parenting — and what that actually meansMediators, lawyers, and knowing when to go back to courtThe one thing you CAN control — and why your home is your powerRESOURCES MENTIONEDFree Download: Co-Parenting Survival Guide — Scripts, strategies, and boundaries you can implement today. Download at AskNyomi.comWebsite: AskNyomi.com — Submit your letter for a future Talk To Me TuesdayEmail: info@asknyomi.com — Send your questions directlyPodcast: The Season of Self-Love — Nyomi's self-love podcast.

Money can feel overwhelming after divorce or a major life transition—but it can also be one of the most powerful tools for creating the life you want next. On this episode of The Rewrite, I'm joined by Phil Weiss, founder of Apprise Wealth Management. Phil has spent decades helping people navigate personal finance and investing, with a special focus on supporting women facing new beginnings. We talk about what “enough” really means, why so many women feel stuck when making financial decisions after divorce, and how shifting from fear to self-trust around money can completely change the way you design your future. This conversation is about more than finances—it's about choice, confidence, and realizing that you get to decide what your next chapter looks like.Follow Phil:www.apprisewealth.com/rewrite@phweiss11

Hello well friends! Over the last few weeks we've been talking about all things exercise! And to keep on theme, today, we have a Pivot Club episode to share with you from one of Australia's most iconic athletes - Jana Pittman... What happens when your entire identity is built on being the best in the world? For Jana Pittman, one of Australia's most famous athletes, the singular goal of Olympic gold was repeatedly torn away by devastating injuries and gut-wrenching losses. You might think her biggest pivot was swapping the running track for the bobsled, becoming one of the very few athletes in history to compete in both the Summer and Winter Olympics. But that wasn't it. Her real pivot was walking away entirely from being an elite athlete to become a doctor - all while raising six children. In this episode of Pivot Club, Sarah Davidson speaks with Jana about this massive career change. They unpack how you cope with failure when your mindset is "silver is the first loser", and how you go from being one of the best in the world to a complete beginner back at the bottom of the ladder, surrounded by people half your age. Jana shares the unfiltered story about how this profound pivot emerged from a period of intense personal and professional struggle - through divorce, miscarriages, failed exams and the financial lows of moving back into her own garage to make ends meet. Join us for a raw lesson in resilience, a look into the unseen "messy middle," and a powerful reminder that your lowest moments can be the fuel for your greatest chapter yet.

Chavisa Horemans is a trauma-informed divorce, co-parenting, and chronic health coach who brings together professional credentials, academic training, and lived experience to support women navigating some of life's most difficult transitions. As the founder of The Mother Corp, Chavisa works primarily with mothers facing high-conflict divorces and gender-based violence, offering a deeply integrative approach rooted in neuroscience, somatic awareness, and trauma-informed principles. Her coaching helps women rebuild their relationship with themselves, cultivate emotional resilience, and move forward with clarity and confidence—even in the most complex circumstances.In this episode of 5 Fresh Tips, Chavisa shares five foundational strategies for divorce recovery and starting over after divorce. She opens with the power of trusting yourself, emphasizing that the relationship you have with yourself is the only lifelong relationship you'll ever have—making self-trust the cornerstone of healing. Her second tip invites listeners to trust their intuition, grounding this advice in brain science: the right hemisphere processes vast amounts of information beyond logic—including where trauma lives—and leaning into that felt sense can be life-changing. Her third tip is to tune into your nervous system, understanding how staying within your “window of tolerance” supports grounded decision-making, co-parenting strategies, and personal safety.Chavisa's fourth tip focuses on investing in resources—working with a specialized professional to fast-track recovery and avoid prolonged suffering during high-conflict situations. Her fifth and final tip is a practical daily ritual: each morning, identify one concrete action to improve your situation, and each night, affirm that you did everything you could to care for yourself that day. Together, these five tips form a powerful roadmap for emotional healing, self-advocacy, and building a new identity after divorce. Whether you're in the early stages of separation or working toward a fresh start, this episode delivers actionable single parenting advice and expert-led tools to help you thrive.

In this episode, I sit down with Melissa Vogel — fitness and mindset coach, podcast host, and a woman who's been through divorce herself — for one of the most honest conversations I've had about modern relationships.We talk about what really happens to marriages after kids arrive, why men and women slowly disconnect without realizing it, and how good people end up emotionally checked out years before divorce ever happens.Melissa opens up about her own marriage, why she drifted away emotionally long before it ended, and what she wishes someone had told her when she was younger. We get into attachment styles, masculine and feminine polarity, why accountability is so rare, and why “love” alone doesn't save a relationship.We also tackle the uncomfortable topics most people avoid:Why attraction fadesWhy fitness and self-respect matter more than people admit Why men and women cheat for very different reasonsWhy second marriages fail so oftenAnd why many couples quietly become roommates instead of loversThis is the kind of conversation every couple should hear — especially before things break beyond repair.If you're married, divorced, dating, or starting over as a man, this one will hit home.Join the HFM Brotherhood!

In this special year-in-review episode, Dale and Chris walk back through the full journey of Men’s Divorce Recovery in 2025 — beginning with the early uncertainty and fear that often mark the start of divorce and ending with hope, healing, and generosity.Together, they revisit key conversations on faith under pressure, emotional pain and deep sadness, redefining what a “win” really looks like, navigating anger and lingering love, blended families, high-stress marriages, and finding peace during the holidays. Drawing from every episode released this year, Chris and Dale reflect on the lessons learned, the patterns they observed in men walking through divorce, and the spiritual truths that sustained them.This episode is both a recap and a reminder: healing is not linear, you are not alone, and real restoration begins by remaining rooted in the enduring love of Christ.
