It's a FLASHBACK TO MY FAVES with Bestselling Author, Podcast Host and Co-Parenting Coach my friend-- Michelle Dempsey- Multack!

We're revisiting some of the best episodes from my Fall 2022 Season until I decide what to do with DRR!

If you missed it the first time, don't worry - today is your lucky day! Thank you, Michelle, for being one of my most popular episodes and a personal favorite.

Michelle is on a mission to help Moms move on after a divorce, navigate high-conflict co-parenting situations and normalize leaving ANY marriage for any reason you see fit! No more "divorce guilt" or shame for doing what feels right.

I love this and Michelle's "no bullshit" approach to all of it.

Thank you, Michelle, for joining me today on Doing Relationships Right pod to dish the dirt on divorce- dating post-divorce, finding love again, surviving, and thriving. This episode was one of my favorite conversations and a fantastic way to close a great season!

Just two divorced Mommas- shooting the shit about our life's experiences and how to Do Divorce Right. ;)

It's All Things Relationships with THERAPY JEFF and Jennifer! Flashback Fave Episode of 2022!

Let's return to September 2022 when I had MY FAVE BOY CRUSH- Therapy Jeff on the Pod! Take a listen to this incredible episode!

Jeff Guenther, LPC, earned his master's degree in marriage and family therapy from the University of Southern California and his bachelor's degree in child and family development from San Diego State University. His therapeutic career started at a crisis line, where he worked with people suffering from suicidal thoughts and severe anxiety. He’s lived in Portland, Oregon, since 2005, and my private practice focuses on couples and individuals. These days, He spends his spare time making one-minute videos for TikTok and Instagram for his 2.1 million followers!

"You can’t say the wrong thing to the right person." ~ Therapy Jeff

As Jeff explains in today's episode, "If you think someone you’re dating thinks you’re insecure or needy, show them that side of you and give them the opportunity to walk away so you can find somebody who will actually meet those needs."

I am overly excited (if you can’t tell) to have Jeff on my podcast today. I am a huge fan of his content and can’t believe we got to chat. This episode is worth sharing!

Peace, love, and truth,

Making the Difficult Decision if Divorce is Right for YOU? with Relationships Decision Coach, Cindy Stibbard

SHOULD YOU STAY OR SHOULD YOU GO?

Is divorce truly the right next step for your relationship?

While I'm not doing any more NEW episodes, I am picking MY FAVORITES from the last FIVE YEARS! It's FLASHBACK TO MY FAVES and I love this conversation with one of my dear friends and colleagues, Certified Divorce & Relationship Decision Coach-- Cindy Stibbard! @divorceredefined

I related to this topic so much; when I wrote my second book, Woulda. Coulda. Shoulda: A Divorce Coach's Guide to Staying Married, I got so much push-back from the divorce community questioning my stance on divorce. Was I pro-divorce or pro-marriage? Truth is- I am PRO-HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP no matter what that looks like, which is why I am such a HUGE fan of Cindy Stibbard's and what she has created for those struggling to make the RIGHT decision.

Leaving your marriage is never easy, especially when kids are involved.

Is ending your marriage RIGHT for you? And if it is, how can you do it confidently and with the wisdom you'll need to get through it? Cindy is a ROCKSTAR and has built tools and workshops guaranteed to make whichever path you choose easier; knowledge is power, and a plan is necessary.
