Life After Divorce: From Breakdown to Breakthrough

Off the Fence with Karen Covy: Mastering Decision Making, Divorce & More

Most people think the hardest part of divorce is splitting the assets or facing the courtroom. But the real challenge—the one no one tells you about—is facing yourself and deciding who you want to be in your life after divorce.

Will your divorce be the springboard for your life 2.0? Or will it continue to be the smoldering ashes of the life you thought you had for years to come?

In this solo episode, you’ll hear the story of Amina, a smart, successful woman who looked like she had it all, but behind closed doors was quietly unraveling in a toxic, controlling marriage.

You’ll discover how Amina slowly began to rebuild her life from the inside out, and how she found the strength to reclaim her confidence, her finances, and eventually her joy. Her story isn’t about revenge or perfection—it’s about how clarity, courage, and conscious choices can transform even the most painful chapter into a path of growth.

This episode is more than a story—it’s a reminder that divorce isn’t just about what you lose. It’s about who you become in the process.

If you're feeling broken or stuck, this conversation will show you that you still have the power to create a life you love—even if you have to start from scratch.
