Send us Fan MailWhat Choosing Yourself Really Costs — And Why It's Worth It AnywayWe talk about "choosing yourself" "main character energy" like it's easy once you decide to do it. A one-and-done decision.Nobody shows you what the middle part looks like - the disappointing people, the sitting with guilt that isn't yours, the questioning whether you're the problem the moment someone reacts badly to your boundary. Or how that feels.In this revisit episode, I go back to "choose you" and show you the texture of it. Not the after.

Send us Fan MailThere is a quiet power I see in my clients, during divorce, and after it. Because power, real power, is what becomes available on the other side.A quiet, settled, deeply rooted kind. A kind that doesn't ask permission or require validation. It simply exists. The quiet power we can access after divorce.Knowing your worth in divorce changes everything.This episode is about the woman who is fully, finally becoming aware of everything she is capable of being after divorce and what that actually looks like in practice.What it means to choose yourself - in the big moments and the small.Why coming home to yourself is the most powerful thing you can do.Sallyanne Hartnell - Divorce Coach & StrategistHow you can work with meBook a free intro callFree Resources & Downloads- Choose You Guidebook- Having Hard Conversations - done for you scripts- Divorce with Less Drama - The MasterclassJoin the Reflect VIP Mailing ListFollow me on INSTAGRAMAll relationships are welcomed and supported at Reflect Coaching 🏳️‍🌈This podcast is recorded on the land of the Wurundjeri people, the Traditional Custodians of this Land & its first story tellers.

Send us Fan MailThe decisions you're making today have real, long term implications and they don't disappear once the divorce is finalised.They compound. And they affect the life and the future version of you that is coming for you.In this episode, Sallyanne asks the question most of us never think to ask in the middle of a crisis: who's speaking for the version of you that's still being built?What changes when future you gets a vote, and why it matters.Because maybe someone is missing from the decision making. Not your lawyer. Not your therapist. Not the voice in your head running on fear and exhaustion.The person you'll be in a year. In five.There is no one right answer or way through the messy hard parts of divorce. It's about the difference between a decision made in survival mode and one made with a thread of awareness running through it, even a painful one.Sallyanne Hartnell - Divorce Coach & StrategistHow you can work with meBook a free intro callFree Resources & Downloads- Choose You Guidebook- Having Hard Conversations - done for you scripts- Divorce with Less Drama - The MasterclassJoin the Reflect VIP Mailing ListFollow me on INSTAGRAMAll relationships are welcomed and supported at Reflect Coaching 🏳️‍🌈This podcast is recorded on the land of the Wurundjeri people, the Traditional Custodians of this Land & its first story tellers.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Reflect, Reclaim & Liberate, I talk about what my divorce coaching clients say actualllly made them go, and it almost never looked like the dramatic ending you'd expect.No affair. No blow-up. Just a slow, quiet erosion of hope, trust, and the version of themselves they used to be, often reaching its final, clear moment on the most ordinary of days.If you're in the hard in-between right now - wondering whether to stay or go, feeling like you can't point to "one big reason," or grieving a relationship you're technically still in - this episode is for you. What relationship erosion really looks like, the myths that keep people stuck in unhappy marriages, and how to start trusting your own knowing again.In this episode:What clients actually said made them finally leave (it's rarely what you'd think)The difference between falling out of love and losing yourselfWhat "grieving a relationship you haven't left yet" really feels likeCommon myths that keep people stuck in the decision to stay or leaveA few reflective questions to sit with, if you're in the in-betweenSallyanne Hartnell - Divorce Coach & StrategistHow you can work with meBook a free intro callFree Resources & Downloads- Choose You Guidebook- Having Hard Conversations - done for you scripts- Divorce with Less Drama - The MasterclassJoin the Reflect VIP Mailing ListFollow me on INSTAGRAMAll relationships are welcomed and supported at Reflect Coaching 🏳️‍🌈This podcast is recorded on the land of the Wurundjeri people, the Traditional Custodians of this Land & its first story tellers.
