A few days ago, I opened up my journal and found this one-line entry from May 10, 2021:

"Meeting with the mediator. I am not a victim. Control what I can."

Reading it brought tears to my eyes.

I was in the thick of it—pregnant, postpartum, heartbroken, and overwhelmed by the emotional and legal chaos of divorce.

At the time, I didn’t even realize how stuck I was in survival mode.But that one sentence marked a quiet turning point.It was the moment I chose to lead my divorce, rather than letting it lead me.

That’s why I sat down with business and mindset coach Kayleigh Kennedy to explore how mindset shapes every part of the divorce journey—and why it’s one of the most powerful shifts we can make when everything feels out of control.

💡 In this episode, we talk about:

How to stop reacting and start responding with intention

Why indecision quietly erodes your self-worth during divorce

What it really means to rebuild your identity and confidence from the inside out

Kayleigh also opened up about how her mindset work became a lifeline for her and her family during her son’s cancer treatment—a powerful reminder that this inner work goes far beyond divorce. 💗

And one of my favourite takeaways from Kayleigh?

“You can’t outperform the image you hold of yourself.”

Because divorce, while painful, is also a rare opportunity to come home to your true, authentic self.

If you’re contemplating “should I stay or go”, stuck in divorce legal limbo, or simply trying to find your footing again after divorce… I hope this episode brings you clarity and hope.

When I was going through my divorce, I barely washed my face.
No, seriously. My skin, my hair, my joy… all of it took a backseat. Survival came first.

But over time, I learned something:
✨ Taking care of your skin is not superficial.
✨ It’s one of the first ways you start coming back to yourself.

In this week’s episode of Untying the Knot, I’m joined by my dear friend Emilie Scissons, founder of Sugar Savvy Beauty Boutique, to talk about:

💆‍♀️ How skincare can become a ritual of healing
🧴 What products and routines work even when time and money are tight
🧖‍♀️ The power of mini moments — facials, masks, even a clean pillowcase
👨‍🦰 And yes — why men need skincare too (especially before re-entering the dating world 😉)

One of my favourite moments?
When Emilie shared how a client going through divorce said, “I’m starting to feel like me again.”
That’s the real glow-up.
