From Chaos to Calm: How I Stopped Drowning in Overwhelm as a Divorced Single Mom

Feeling like you’re always one ping away from burnout?
In this solo season finale of The Crazy Ex-Wives Club, I’m getting real about what it takes to find calm after divorce — when you’re juggling solo parenting, solopreneurship, and the endless to-do list.

What happens when your to-do list never ends, your phone never stops pinging, and you’re the only one keeping everything together? As I prepared for a week unplugged in the mountains, I opened up about the spiral of control, anxiety, and exhaustion that so many women face — and how learning to let go became the key to freedom.

🔑 What You’ll Learn

How to stop letting conditions you can’t control dictate your mood and energy
Why multitasking is a myth that drains your focus and joy
Simple tech detox strategies to reclaim presence (and sanity)
The “one thing” method to stay grounded when life feels impossible
Why burnout recovery starts with permission — to rest, to say no, and to let go

🎧 Tune in to hear how I turned chaos into clarity, and how you can start doing less to create more peace, presence, and purpose in your day.
