In this honest and deeply human conversation, Sarah welcomes divorce coach Steph Kafoury to talk about the loss that can come with divorce, even when leaving was the right choice. They speak with care and humor about anger, sadness, identity, parenting, dating, support, and learning to trust yourself without needing a perfect plan. Steph shares how divorce coaching helps people move from “we” to “me,” while Sarah connects divorce grief to the larger pain of living after loss. Together, they remind listeners that healing has no set timeline, kids need love and safety, and small daily choices can help you find hope while life changes around you. Before becoming a life coach, Steph Kafoury built a dynamic career as an international advertising executive in Amsterdam, a yoga instructor, and the founder of a marketing consultancy. Each chapter taught her something vital about human connection, resilience, and the importance of living with intention. Her greatest transformation, however, came in 2023, when her marriage ended. What began as a breaking point became a breakthrough — the experience that reshaped not just her life, but her purpose. That season of uncertainty revealed the heart of her work: helping women navigate the raw, beautiful, and often messy process of rediscovering themselves after major life transitions. Steph lives in Bend, Oregon with her three amazing kids and their yellow lab, Sabrina. Together, they fill their days with hiking, skiing, travel, and spontaneous adventure. She believes that healing doesn’t happen by running from your story — it happens when you finally embrace it.
