The Divorce Revolution

Playing it safe online might feel comfortable but what if it's the exact thing keeping you invisible, stuck, and second-guessing your potential as a coach?
 
In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm talking directly to the coach who knows she wants to show up more online…but keeps hesitating. The one tweaking her bio again, rewriting captions she never posts, or hiding behind "productive" tasks instead of actually being seen. I break down why visibility feels so scary, what's really happening underneath that fear, and how taking messy, imperfect action is often the fastest path to clarity, confidence, and clients.
 
 
If you've been playing it safe online, waiting to feel more confident before showing up, or hiding behind perfectionism instead of letting yourself be seen, then this episode is for you.

Burnout doesn't always look like total exhaustion or wanting to quit—it can show up quietly, in the way you start dreading sessions or feeling wiped after every call.
 
In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm talking about the kind of burnout coaches rarely admit out loud—the kind that creeps in when you're doing "all the right things" but still feel mentally and emotionally drained. 
 
If you've been feeling drained after sessions, questioning whether coaching is really for you, or wondering why something you love is starting to feel heavy, then this episode is for you.

Feeling called to coach but still questioning whether you're actually ready to do this?
 
In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm breaking down the three non-negotiables every coach has to master if you want to feel confident in sessions, trust that you can actually help your clients, and build a coaching business that makes real money—not just one that looks good on Instagram.
 
So many women doubt themselves not because they aren't capable, but because they don't yet have the structure, skills, or reps that create real confidence. Today, I'm giving you a high-level look at the three foundations I see in every successful coach—and why skipping even one of them is what keeps so many people stuck in fear, imposter syndrome, or overthinking every session.

When a coaching session ends and you're left wondering, "Did I actually help her?"—this episode is for you.
 
In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm breaking down why coaching sessions sometimes feel flat (even when nothing technically went "wrong") and what's really happening beneath the surface when that doubt creeps in. I share the most common reasons sessions stall, what not to do when that happens, and how to confidently lead the conversation so you don't leave second-guessing yourself. We're talking about coaching leadership, structure, and how to re-anchor a session in real time—without forcing emotion, over-talking, or jumping into advice.

If your coaching sessions feel supportive but you're not sure they're actually moving the needle, this episode will clear things up fast.
 
In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I'm breaking down one of the biggest things that trips new coaches up: confusing a coaching conversation with a chat between friends. I talk about why this happens, how it affects your confidence, and what actually separates powerful coaching from well-meaning advice. We'll also get into the two fear buckets I see come up all the time for coaches, and why intentional leadership—not fixing or rescuing—is what creates real client transformation.
