Ep. 48 - JESSICA ASHLEY: On Thriving (not just surviving) Divorce, Always Building Muscle, & Claiming Our Power
<p>If you or someone you know has been divorced, is going through a divorce or even thinking about one, please give a listen to Heather and Steph's conversation with Jessica Ashley and her signature powerful insights. Steph, Heather, and Jessica keep it very real and go deep in this episode about finding our way through divorce, including personal stories of what happened, and what it's like now and fears we can reframe. With class and grace, Jessica reminds us that we have been working a muscle that we will need, and all we have to do when the next heavy thing comes is remember to use it. She also gives us some powerful tools for communicating how it's going with our kids, and stands firm in the truth that "ultimately, for some us, it (divorce) is about saving our own lives." You don't want to miss this one! </p> <p>Sidenote: this episode is only marked "explicit" due to our ability to cuss. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Jessica Ashley is rewriting the narrative of divorce. She is the Divorce Coach for Moms, a CDC Certified Divorce Coach®, and helps women thrive through transitions with grace, creativity, and maybe some cussing. On TikTok and Instagram (@divorcecoachformoms), Jessica is a mom's best girlfriend in divorce, posting two videos daily to a rapidly growing audience of women seeking community and clarity. She's the author of The Blended Family Q&A: 400 Questions to Spark Fun and Thought-Provoking Conversations (Rockridge Press, 2021) and three self-published books for divorcing women. Jessica is an award-winning content creator and writer, and teaches a graduate communication class at Northwestern. Tune in to her as a speaker and guest expert on TV, radio and podcasts, including Oprah's Super Soul Sunday Life Class, Martha Stewart Radio, Listen to Your Mother, and Northern Trust. Jessica wears inappropriately high heels to cheer from the sidelines at her children's track meets, soccer matches and gymnastics competitions. She (reluctantly and instinctively) responds to both Jessica and Ashley.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Show notes:</p> <p>Jessica Ashley</p> <p><a href="https://www.divorcecoachformoms.com/">Divorce Coach For Moms</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/stefaniapomponi/">Stefania Pomponi</a></p> <p><br><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@divorcecoachformoms" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"><br></a><br></p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/babysteph/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"><br></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/heather_westberg_king/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"><br></a></p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/heartypodcast/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"><br></a><br></p> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/writingthreadspodcast" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"><br></a><br></p>
