In this episode, Jeff and Doreen dive into the difference between hearing and listening. Hearing is an automatic, constant physical ability – it’s passive reception of sound waves from the environment, requiring no conscious effort. On the other hand, listening is an active process – it’s about paying attention, decoding, and understanding the messages being communicated.

When going through a divorce listening is key when it comes down to negotiations, communication with your lawyers, mediators and yes, even your soon to be ex-spouse. Differentiate listening and hearing, and you’ll become a better communicator, a more empathetic friend, and a more active participant in your own life.

When you distinguish between hearing, you will discover a crucial skill for personal and professional growth after divorce.

Acknowledging your worth and believing in it is indeed crucial during such a challenging time better known as divorce. Self-awareness and self-assurance can help you rebuild your life and set a positive foundation for the future. It's like renovating a house; you need to clear out the old, damaged parts and build something stronger and more resilient in their place.

In the episode Jeff and Doreen will give you tips on dismantling old beliefs and empowering you with a new version of yourself. This process can involve reflecting on past experiences, understanding what didn't work, and being open to new perspectives and possibilities, such as, finalizing your divorce sooner, confidence when in mediation and so on. Also, it’s important to surround yourself with supportive people who can help you stay motivated and focused on your goals.

Remember, transformation is a journey, not a destination. It takes time, patience, and a lot of self-compassion. But with determination and the right mindset, you can navigate through this period and emerge stronger and more confident.

Finding your new self after a divorce can be challenging but also exhilarating. After years of being part of a couple, figuring out who you are on your own might seem daunting, but it’s also an opportunity to explore new possibilities and invigorate your life. The upside of divorce is that it provides a fantastic opportunity for growth and self-discovery.

In this episode, Jeff and Doreen discuss ways to redefine your identity post-divorce, helping you move forward with confidence and build a life that truly reflects who you are. Join them as they share insights and strategies to embrace this new chapter and create a fulfilling and authentic future.
