Today dear reader, we are going to talk about confidence. A lot of times when a woman gets divorced she also mistakenly divorces her confidence. This could happen for a number of reasons.

What if he was truly happy that you’re making more money, found a good guy and lost 10 pounds from eating salads at lunch instead of Philly cheesesteaks?
Would your feelings about him and your divorce/breakup change for the better?
Let’s just pretend that he does want the very best for you then!

Not every marriage is successful. Often, after marriage, people discover differences among each other that make the relationship difficult. A divorce or separation always comes with a huge amount of baggage, both physical and psychological. It is difficult to deal with the idea that you will have to start with life all over again. It is hard to cut out losses, ...
When you have relationships after divorce, it either goes smoothly or it doesn’t. It usually doesn’t.
When there is drama in a romantic relationship it’s most often caused by insecurity.
Are you constantly wondering what your guy is doing, who he’s with, why he hasn’t called, and when you will see him again? Don’t lie, it’s nothing to be ashamed of I’ve done it too. Recently. (If you could see me, you’ll see me shaking my head in shame.) Why do we ...

I was introduced to my Dad’s friend as the “outgoing” one (my little sis was described as the “diva”-she is awfully fly!)

After living in San Francisco, California for 9 years and being without a car for almost four years (ex took the car in divorce) I appreciate the little things in ...

I feel good. I’ve been making big, scary changes in my life. And I’m happy. And having fun.
I recently spoke to a client of mine during one of our sessions, where she told me she had had an epiphany regarding her self worth.
