About this listen

Have you ever been talked over in a meeting, assigned work with no warning, or gotten that oh-so-lovely “Can you just help with this one little thing?” at 4:59 p.m.?

In this episode, I’m joined by Stacey, Diana, Marie, and Grace, all divorced Christian women who are navigating life post-divorce in the workplace. We’re diving deep into how to show up for yourself professionally without selling your soul or compromising your values.

What We Talked About:

  • How divorce made us braver and more assertive at work
  • Real-life stories of standing up to toxic bosses and winning (even if your hands are shaking the whole time)
  • Tips for dealing with mansplaining, micromanagers, and Monday meetings
  • Knowing when to speak up and when to let it go Elsa-style
  • Creating unshakeable boundaries around your time, energy, and sanity
  • How trauma triggers show up in the office, and how we’ve learned to manage them
  • Why being a “dependable worker” doesn’t mean being everyone’s doormat
  • Using body language and presence to command respect
  • The sacred art of saying “no” without apologizing or over-explaining
  • Gossip: How to shut it down without becoming the HR police

Feel like a hot mess after divorce? This FREE 5-Day Workshop will teach you a mind-shift tool to help you learn a powerful way to manage your thoughts and emotions in order to navigate adult decisions with clarity and peace.
