Divorce. Although it may be commonplace in today's society, it is still such a challenging and difficult subject. Progress is being made towards understanding, moving through, and moving on after a relationship has run its course but that doesn’t mean that it is smooth sailing, far from it in many respects. During this two-part episode, I am joined by my friend, Heidi Dinning, who is a CDC®Certified Divorce Coach and CDC®Certified Divorce Transition and Recovery Coach. She is also a Certified High-Conflict Communications Strategist and Co-parenting Communications Specialist. After going through her divorce, as well as her parent’s divorce, she recognized a gap that desperately needed to be filled. The space between acknowledging that divorce was the next step and meeting at the lawyer's office.
Part One of our conversation dives into how the pandemic caused the pivot that helped bring Heidi into her current career and why she is grateful. We break down what a Certified Divorce Coach is, how the process of engaging with her works, and why it can be a very helpful tool during a very challenging time. Heidi is a fountain of knowledge who has a measured and thoughtful way of seeing her clients through one of the most difficult periods in their life. Throughout the episode, we discuss the realities of marriage, how the pandemic has affected relationships, divorce and separation, blending families, the power of communication, and how Heidi's goal of helping people survive and thrive is the ultimate driver!
