The holiday season often brings unique challenges for divorced women. When family gatherings change, traditions feel different, and the absence of familiar routines leaves us disoriented, it’s normal to experience sadness and longing for what used to be. In this episode, I dive deep into the ways you can not only survive but actually enjoy the holidays post-divorce by creating meaningful moments and focusing on what truly matters.

Tune in as we discuss:

• Letting go of “Hallmark” expectations and embracing imperfect, real-life celebrations
• Facing the reality of different holiday routines without letting it diminish your joy
• Separating your own experience from your children’s, and making sure they feel loved without carrying your burdens
• Ideas for building new traditions, coordinating peacefully with your ex, and planning joyful gatherings, even if they’re on a different day
• Making decisions that align with your values rather than allowing holiday emotions to lead to regretful choices

The holidays may look different now, but different doesn’t have to mean worse. Join me as I explain how to find peace and joy in this season, setting the tone for a holiday experience that leaves you and your children with beautiful new memories.

Having a daily gratitude practice helps you feel happier, less stressed, more content, and more optimistic. Did you also know it can improve your sleep, lower your blood pressure and make you more productive?

For the month of November, I invite you to practice the daily gratitude challenge I outline in this episode. Spending just 5 to 10 minutes a day expressing gratitude can make you a better version of yourself as you heal after divorce.

Here's the challenge:

1. Name one thing you appreciate about yourself. It can be a characteristic, quality or accomplishment.

2. Name one person you are grateful for and why. If you want to take it to the next level, you can send that person a note letting them know.

3. Name one thing you are thankful for. It can be big or small.

Email me at Angie@angiewilsoncoaching.com to let me know you're doing the gratitude challenge with me.
