I know the storm of gray divorce because I’ve walked through it, eyes wide open, heart shattered, searching for solid ground. When my husband told me he was leaving after a 26-year marriage and raising two daughters, the floor vanished beneath me. I was blindsided, terrified, and forced to make monumental decisions like where to live, how to survive, and what I could afford while drowning in anxiety and grief. I had dedicated my life to raising our daughters and supporting his career.

While in that storm, I leaned heavily on the resilience, strategy, leadership and well-being tools I had taught others throughout my career. These tools became my lifeline.

I didn’t just survive, I turned devastation into the catalyst for my greatest becoming.

Since my own divorce, I’ve watched so many women navigate this chapter without the guidance or structure they deserve. The suffering is often longer and heavier than it needs to be, not because they’re not strong, but because no one has offered them a clear, compassionate path with practical tools to move them from overwhelm to rebuilding.

That clarity is what inspired me to shift my coaching practice and bring together the tools, practices, and teachings I’ve used for years into my coaching framework. Today, my work is devoted to helping women reimagine and build meaningful lives on the other side of gray divorce.
