When my first marriage fell apart, I felt both sides of the coin. One side was heavy with failure, abandonment, and worthlessness. The other side glimmered with excitement and freedom. I had the chance to redo what I once thought was the biggest mistake of my life.

That’s the thing about endings. They rarely feel simple. They are a collision of grief and relief, fear and hope, loss and possibility.

In 2016, my ex-husband left me for someone younger. On the surface, that might sound like the end of the story. But in reality, it was only the beginning of a much deeper journey — one that taught me about resilience, growth, and the freedom that comes when you finally reclaim your power.

Have you ever felt like just being yourself causes a ripple in the room?

Like people sense something different about you — something they can’t quite name — and they’re unsure whether to admire it, question it, or push it away?

If you’re nodding, I want you to know:

You’re not alone.

And there’s nothing wrong with you.

In fact — there’s something very right with you.
