Feeling lonely after divorce can seem overwhelming and endless, but what if your loneliness isn't actually about being alone? In this deeply personal episode, I unpack the true nature of loneliness and why it feels so heavy when we're navigating life after divorce. The truth might surprise you: loneliness isn't caused by the absence of people. You can be physically alone without feeling lonely, and conversely, feel profoundly lonely while surrounded by family or even while married. What creates that hollow feeling in your chest isn't your circumstances; it's your thoughts about those circumstances. The stories we tell ourselves about what it means to be divorced, single, or alone can transform a quiet evening into a painful experience of isolation. When loneliness strikes, our instinct is often to resist it or find ways to escape it. We might rush into dating, rearrange custody schedules, or isolate ourselves further because we believe something must be wrong with us. But what if there's another way? I'll walk you through a step-by-step process for sitting with loneliness, understanding its physical sensations, and learning to move through it rather than around it. The most powerful realization? The antidote to loneliness isn't being with others; it's connection, beginning with yourself. When you build a compassionate relationship with yourself first, you transform how you relate to everyone else in your life. Your emotional wellbeing no longer depends on others' availability or choices. This episode offers practical strategies for creating self-connection, recognizing thought patterns that intensify loneliness, and finding kinder alternatives that feel true and supportive. You'll walk away with tools to make loneliness feel less overwhelming and more manageable as you continue becoming you again.To download your FREE GUIDE: "7-Day Self Trust Reset" click here.
