About this episode

In this episode, Kristen Noel discusses the importance of setting boundaries during divorce and encourages mothers to prioritize their own needs.

There's a track playing on repeat in the background of so many women's lives during divorce — one that says you have to explain yourself, justify your choices, and keep everyone else comfortable, even at your own expense. In this episode, I'm pulling that pattern into the light, because the moment you see it is the moment you can change it. - Your divorce is not a zero-sum game. Two truths can co-exist: I want out AND I care about how I do it. - Boundaries aren't cold or dismissive — they're one of the most loving things you can do for yourself and your family. - You are not here to fix or comfort everyone through a decision that is yours to make. Repeat after me: I am no longer available for that. Getting clear on what you're no longer available for is the gateway to everything waiting for you on the other side. 💛 — If you’re a professional, independent mother facing off with divorce, worried about your emotional wellbeing, your kids and your future…and want a better way to navigate it all, here’s how we can help: FREE DIVORCE WORKSHOP BOOK A FREE STRATEGY CALL The Intuitive Divorce Podcast helps mothers navigate the messy waters of divorce to achieve the best outcomes for…
