394. Investing After Divorce: Where to Start Even If You Feel Intimidated with Lauri Kibby
Does the idea of investing make you want to shut your laptop and avoid your bank account? In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I sit down with financial coach Lauri Kibby for an honest, empowering conversation about how to start investing even if you’ve never done it before, even if you don’t feel “ready,” and even if money feels like a major trigger after divorce. We talk about shifting from a scarcity mindset to one of confidence and curiosity, why you don’t have to wait until you’re debt-free to start, and the small, manageable steps you can take right now to start building wealth as a single woman. If you’ve ever felt like investing isn’t for “people like you,” Lauri breaks it down in a way that feels accessible, aligned, and totally doable.

393. How to Get Your First Coaching Client (Even Without a Big Following)
Still waiting for more followers, a finished website, or the perfect Instagram grid before you start working with clients?

391. How to Launch Your Coaching Business in 30 Days
What if your coaching business could be up and running before summer ends? In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I’m walking you through the exact 30-day launch plan I teach my own clients inside ReNewU—because yes, it’s absolutely possible to start your business in a month (even with a job, kids, and fear in the mix).

You don’t need a website, a logo, or a million followers. You need a niche, an offer, and a willingness to take messy action. And that’s exactly what we’re covering in this episode.

390. Good Parenting or Just Ego? Redefining Co-Parenting After Divorce with Michelle Dempsey-Multack
What if the biggest co-parenting battle you’re fighting…isn’t with your ex, but with your own ego? In this episode of The Divorce Revolution Podcast, I sit down with the brilliant Michelle Dempsey-Multack—certified divorce and co-parenting specialist, podcast host, and author—for a raw, honest conversation about what putting your kids first actually looks like. We talk about the reality of co-parenting with someone who triggers you, how to quiet your ego when your child says they miss the other parent, and why being flexible is sometimes more important than being “fair.” We also dive into the overuse of the word “narcissist,” the self-awareness it takes to stop projecting pain onto your kids, and why your feelings don’t always need to lead the way. If you’ve been navigating high-conflict co-parenting, feeling resentful, or struggling with the emotional weight of it all, this episode is for you.
