Rebuild your life after divorce by discovering you

For anyone out there reading this, if you are in a relationship where your voice is diminished or if you have forgotten who you are because you are living in the shadow of someone else, there is hope. There is a way out.

I was in a very unhealthy marriage for 20 years
I lost sight of me, who I was, what was important to me, and more importantly, my belief in myself. I forgot about my gifts, lost my confidence, and became a different person. I shrunk, lost my voice, and stopped engaging with the world in the way that I was meant to.

Slowly I stopped doing what I loved, felt depressed and anxious a lot of the time, and withdrew. I took care of my children, house, and husband. I just forgot to take care of me.

My life changed when he asked for a divorce. It was something that I had wanted for many years but knew that I wouldn’t be able to be the one to walk away.

The divorce was the best thing that ever happened to me!!

I had to rebuild my life, rediscover myself, and reimagine a new life and career for myself.

I was blessed because I had my two loving sons, my family, close friends, and an amazing therapist who helped me come out on the other side. I was fortunate to have the resources to go back to school to get my Master’s in Counseling, worked hard and had a variety of  jobs that helped me to land where I am today…doing exactly what I love to do.

My message is to anyone that is in a similar situation or is clawing back from an unhealthy relationship-

Your voice matters. Your gifts are meant to be shared with others. Look for the helpers, follow your passion, and know that behind all of the layers of your self-protection, you are in there and just waiting to come out.
