In this deeply heartfelt episode of Dishing on Divorce, we welcome the luminous Simonne Rossi Paumard, transformational mindset coach, a retreat facilitator, and San Diego-based realtor originally from France. With grace, humor, and raw vulnerability, Simonne shares her extraordinary story of love, betrayal, reinvention, and ultimately liberation.
Simonne takes us back to a life-altering moment in September 2022, when she first reached out to Vesta, unsure of what questions to ask and emotionally frozen in the wake of discovering her husband’s affair. What followed was a courageous two-and-a-half-year journey through grief, growth, and self-representation as she navigated her own divorce, emerging stronger and more radiant than ever.
Together, we explore the power of forgiveness—not as a free pass, but as an act of liberation. Simonne’s reflections on parenting adult children through divorce, writing her book on compassionate communication, and choosing to forgive for the sake of her peace— and her smile —are unforgettable. She reminds us that forgiveness is emotional alchemy: the transformation of pain into purpose.
Now, as both a coach and a realtor, Simonne brings her signature blend of emotional intelligence, spiritual depth, and European elegance to guide women through life transitions, particularly those rooted in heartbreak and housing decisions.
With timeless wisdom like “you are not your past, but the infinite possibilities of the present moment,” Simonne inspires us all to clear out the dusty furniture of our old stories and welcome in the velvet sofa of possibility.
