Ep. 69: Divorce, Women + Drinking

Many women find themselves turning to alcohol and drinking more during the decline of a marriage, during a separation or once their divorce is final.

 

Why do women drink after a divorce? 

 

Divorce can bring to the surface feelings of uncertainty, loneliness, resentment, fear, regret, guilt, anger and shame for many women. These emotions can be difficult to cope with alone and women may turn to a bottle of wine to numb negative feelings. Not only can women feel isolated, but they also might feel the desire to celebrate their newfound freedom and independence by drinking. 

 

My guest today, Krysty Krwyko of Your Creative Badass Divorce, is here to share how to turn divorce from a soul-sucking to a soul-defining experience. Krysty helps women heal and recover from divorce, shed the stigma, reinvent themselves and reclaim their lives. 

 

Krysty is a life coach, educator, mixed media artist, self proclaimed book nerd and an indie mama of two teens. She uses the pillars of creativity and sobriety in her work with women as they navigate their lives through a creative journey process.

 

Tune in to hear us talk about healthy ways to cope after divorce, what having a creative outlet means for most women, why there's danger in trying to just push through negative emotions, and how Krysty has used her experience to support women navigating the shitty waters of post-divorce life.
