What if the best thing you could do in a difficult moment during divorce… is **nothing yet?**

This week on *Doing Divorce Different*, I sat down with family law attorney and author **Nicole Sodoma**, and she gave us one word I absolutely love:

**Selah.**

Pause.

Before you respond to that text.
Before you fire off the email.
Before you make a decision while your emotions are running high.

Nicole brings such a unique perspective to this conversation. She has practiced family law for 25 years—and she has also walked through divorce herself.

We talk about:

✨ What to do when divorce feels completely overwhelming
✨ Why women need to understand their finances
✨ Why we say “I’m sorry” when we aren't actually sorry
✨ How to communicate with a difficult co-parent
✨ How to protect your kids from carrying the emotional weight of divorce
✨ And why sometimes the most powerful response is simply to **pause**

This conversation is full of practical wisdom, but more importantly, HOPE.

🎧 Listen to this week’s *Doing Divorce Different* wherever you listen to podcasts.

And send this to a woman who may need the reminder today:

**You don't have to react to everything immediately. Selah. Pause. Then choose your response.**

COMING SOON 🎙️

Is divorce a form of grief?

And could people-pleasing actually be keeping you from being honest about what you need?

My conversation with divorce, grief and trauma coach Chel Cartmill went places I wasn't expecting—and I loved it.

We talk about:

✨ Why divorce can feel like a death
✨ The life you may actually be grieving
✨ Why grief and joy can exist at the same time
✨ How people-pleasing can silence your voice
✨ The question to ask before automatically saying "yes"
✨ Why knowing your core values changes everything

This one made me think about some things in my own life, too.

Coming soon on Doing Divorce Different. 🎙️
