It doesn't matter the circumstances of the end of your marriage, we all learn things about ourselves in the process. We learn our values, our beliefs, our choices and, if we do the self-work we understand where they came from and if they are serving or hurting us.

This is your baggage. We all have it.

And if you want to find happiness after divorce some it is going to have to go.

Mandy's guest for this Conversation calls it "taking out your trash." Antonia Ragozzino has just published her second novel, "Taking Out The Trash: Garbage In ... Garbage Out." The main character is Ella and Antonia used her own first-hand experiences after divorce to help Ella sort out her trash.

Listen in to hear what was the hardest piece of trash for Antonia, the most significant and the most surprising. You'll find a synopsis of the Conversation at Mandy's blog: https://sncemydivorce.com/letting-go-of-the-past-after-divorce

You can follow Antonia at her blog: https://AntoniaBlogs and also on her YouTube channel, Taking Out The Trash where she offers inspiration about being single after divorce.
