KEY TAKEAWAYS

 

Your beliefs shape everything—your self-worth, your future, your ability to heal and thrive.

 

Limiting beliefs like "I'm not lovable" or "I'll never be happy again" are just stories you've told yourself—they're not facts.

The process to change beliefs involves awareness, reframing, reinforcement, and aligned action.

Tools like affirmations and visualization are not fluff—they work to rewire your mind when practiced consistently.

You have the power to create your next chapter—and it can be better than you ever imagined.

 

BEST MOMENTS

 

"Your belief system is like a lens through which you see the world—and it shapes how you think, act, and respond to challenges."

 

"Recovery from divorce is about creating your new story, your new life, your new future."

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe your new belief yet—write it down anyway. The belief will catch up to you."

"Visualize yourself living the life you want as if it's already happening. Feel it. See it. Believe it."

"Changing your beliefs is powerful—but nothing happens without action."

ABOUT THE PODCAST

 

Do I Really Hate Men?

 

Interesting question and one I have asked myself many times. This is not an 'I hate men' podcast neither is it just an account of my divorce and the many awful events leading up to and during it. This podcast is a safe space to delve into what happens when relationships end, it provides guidance on how to carry on being a functioning adult and/or Single Mum when you feel broken inside. 

 

This podcast provides hope sprinkled with humour, at times its emotional at times inspiring and at times sad. I have a message to share with women around the world, come join me and your global sisters for a weekly dose of Superhero Mum inspiration and stories.

 

My mission - to help women and mothers globally to recover from relationship pain,  lead meaningful happy lives and inspire their children to succeed.

 

NOTE – I need you to know that I don't hate men! It's important that you know there are many great men out there. Many fantastic fathers and single fathers trying hard to do a great job. I know little about the struggles of single fathers; however, I presume they are numerous common issues we share with these amazing men who strive to do the right thing by their children.
