#98 | I’m Getting Divorced... Now What? | Brenda Bridges

Divorce recovery, co-parenting tips, and emotional resilience after separation — this raw and powerful episode with Certified Divorce Coach Brenda Bridges is for anyone asking: “How do I get through this without wrecking the kids, my finances, or myself?”

When Brenda heard the words “I want a divorce,” everything unravelled. $120,000 later, with no co-parenting relationship and deep emotional fallout, she realised: There has to be a better way.

In this honest and deeply practical conversation, Brenda shares:

The #1 mindset shift to go from blame to collaboration
Why “think logically, not emotionally” is harmful advice
How to protect your children from the emotional wreckage
Her Values-Based Compass for making calm, values-led decisions
Real tools for professionals juggling custody, conflict, and careers

Whether you’re navigating divorce, supporting someone who is, or simply want to handle conflict better, this episode offers hope, strategy, and transformation.
