"Rebuilding Your Life After Divorce by Rewriting Your Beliefs"

Many women struggle to rebuild after divorce because they’re unknowingly operating from outdated beliefs. To create a life that excites and fulfils you, you need to reexamine your values, rewrite your rules, and act in alignment with your true self.

Understanding Your Operating System

Your beliefs act as the “rules” for how you live. For instance:

  • Rule: “It’s selfish to put myself first.” → Leads to burnout and resentment.

  • Rule: “I can’t trust anyone.” → Results in isolation and fear of intimacy.

These beliefs often stem from your upbringing and past experiences, but they don’t have to define your future.

Steps to Rewrite Your Beliefs

  1. Audit Your Current Rules: Write down the “shoulds” and “musts” you live by. For example, “I must be strong all the time.”

  2. Examine Their Origins: Ask yourself, “Who taught me this? Is it true?”

  3. Create New Rules: Replace limiting rules with empowering ones. For instance, “It’s okay to ask for help when I need it.”

Living in Alignment with Your True Self

When your beliefs, values, and actions align, you feel confident and at peace.

  • Clarify your core values by asking, “What truly matters to me?”

  • Practice making decisions that honour your values, even when it feels uncomfortable.

  • Celebrate small wins to reinforce your new way of thinking.
