Adapting To Sharing Custody (REFLECT AND REPLAY)

In this week’s episode I share my experience of coping with the fact that I would have to share custody of my child once I filed for divorce. As a working mom, I worried about the moments I would miss with my child once I went back to work. I never thought about missing moments because I would get divorced and have to share custody. The thought of missing even more time with my child left me full of sadness, anger and anxiety. In the beginning, I spent most of my time away from my son depressed, spending a lot of time in his room and going through pictures of him. After a while, I realized not only is this not healthy, but it’s a missed opportunity! I started to use my time away from my son to spend time getting to know myself. I began to embark on new hobbies and experience all the things I wanted to do before, but never had the free time. What started off feeling like a punishment turned into a blessing. I discovered having that time away to reenergize and rediscover myself allowed me to have a more balanced life.
