Today’s episode with Nilda Campuzano is very refreshing and inspiring. We talk about the key elements in creating a thriving life weather you are contemplating divorce, going through it, or have gone through it.
Nilda was a stay at home mom for 13 years before her divorce. She had a very trying time in the process - having children to consider, her family being in another country, and being away from the workforce for so long. But as she took things one step at a time, everything started coming to place. And she is now seeing the light at the end of her tunnel.
I hope this episode inspires you to gain clarity, ask for support, and really advocate for yourself and for your children. Don’t settle. Don't Park... Keep Moving.
Here are some things we discuss:
Do Not Isolate Yourself
We all know the importance of staying connected and getting support. But as women are going through divorce, most feel that reaching out and opening up to people difficult and painful.
Know Your Reasons
Divorce is such a rollercoaster. You will doubt yourself, your decisions, your actions. Being extremely clear with the reasons why you came to the decision and having a visual helps ground you in times of doubt. To gain clarity, you can meditate, journal, seek counsel, start gathering financial information and get your financial house in order.
Nilda shares her 2 biggest commitments to herself and her children and how honoring these commitments and communicating it allowed for the support of other people.
Wanting to Have a “Peaceful” Process
Nilda shares how she took all the responsibility and left nothing for herself because of the guilt she felt around her divorce and in wanting a “peaceful” separation. Looking back, she reflects that being a little bit angry and advocating for herself more could have done her better.
“Real peace is not the absence of conflict, it is the presence of justice.”
