... Read moreGoing through a divorce can be one of the most challenging experiences in life, and the feelings of upset often go beyond what words can describe. From personal experience, I have found that allowing yourself to fully feel and acknowledge these emotions is a crucial first step in healing. It's important to seek support, whether from close friends, family, or professional counselors. Sharing your story can be therapeutic and help you realize that you are not alone in this journey. Each person’s experience is unique, but common feelings include sadness, frustration, and sometimes relief. Accepting these feelings without judgment can aid in gradually moving forward. Engaging in self-care activities such as journaling, exercise, or hobbies can provide much-needed distraction and promote mental well-being. Setting small, achievable goals daily helped me rebuild my sense of purpose and self-esteem. Divorce also provides an opportunity for personal growth and rediscovery. It prompts reflection on what one truly values and desires in life. Over time, many find strength in redefining their identity outside of their past relationship. If you are currently dealing with a divorce, remember that healing is a process, not a destination. Patience and kindness toward yourself make a significant difference. The road may be tough, but with time and support, a more hopeful and fulfilling chapter awaits.

Your kid doesn’t need privacy. They need parenting
They call it “gentle parenting” now. But what I see… is moms scared to upset their kids. Afraid to say no. Afraid to check the phone. Afraid to be the bad guy. I check the tablet. I open the apps. I watch the videos. I watch the games. I will check his future phone. I will check the DMs.
