How To Be Happy In Your Skin When Divorced In Your 30s
Back in the summer, I received a message on Instagram asking me “What would you suggest the best thing to do for someone who wants to find happiness in their own skin and not feel they need a girl's attention to feel confident and wanted?”.
This message came from someone who was going through a divorce and realised they had some work to do on themselves before they were ready to continue dating.
I had a lot to say in response to this so instead of typing out an essay, I recorded this episode of The Date with Confidence Podcast. Tune in as I dive into the importance of self-validation, shifting perceptions of failure, and romanticising daily life to build inner happiness. The episode explores practical steps to rediscover joy, self-confidence and personal growth while navigating life post-divorce.
Here’s a peek at what we cover:
1. Acknowledging Attachment Issues: The importance of self-awareness in addressing attachment styles and emotional needs.
2. Shifting Perceptions of Failure: Redefining divorce and moving back home as part of life's journey, not a failure.
3. Romanticising Daily Life: Creating small moments of joy and practising gratitude to build daily happiness.
4. Building Self-Validation: Steps to shift from relying on external validation to becoming your own biggest cheerleader.
5. Self-Care and Confidence: How regular self-care activities contribute to mental and physical well-being.
6. Taking Action for Confidence: Challenging yourself by stepping out of your comfort zone to build self-assurance.
The episode offers a blend of empathy and practical tips to help you navigate post-divorce life and rediscover confidence in yourself.
