Hey there, Joy Seekers— Welcome back to Find the Joy with Jenn. Today, I want to talk about something that affects all of us more than we realize, something I see over and over again in my own life and in the lives of the people I coach: ✨ The power of the story we tell ourselves.

This is true for all of us, but especially for those of us walking through divorce, betrayal, deep grief, or any kind of painful chapter.

Because we all tell ourselves stories. About our marriage. About our divorce. About our pain.
About who we are because of it. And those stories shape everything. At some point, your story also deserves to be reframed. Not because the past didn’t hurt, but because you don’t have to stay forever trapped in it.

184. Triggers Are Teachers- What Your Pain Is Trying to Show You

Hey friends, and welcome back to Find the Joy with Jenn.
I’m so glad you’re here. 
You thought the hardest part was leaving—but co-parenting with a narcissist might just be the real challenge. I promise God didn’t bring you this far to let a narcissist steal your joy through parenting conflict.

If your ex is still trying to manipulate, gaslight, or provoke you through parenting decisions, schedules, or communication—you are not crazy.
You’re just dealing with a narcissist, and today we’re going to talk about how you can stay grounded, protect your peace, and show up as the steady, safe parent your kids need.

185. God Can Help You Co-Parent with a Narcissist Ex

Hey friends, and welcome back to Find the Joy with Jenn.
I’m so glad you’re here. Today, I’m talking about what makes a Second Marriage Work After Divorce. The Hard Work Behind My Happy Ending.

After I released episode #180, our 20th anniversary special, I heard from so many of you. You thanked me for being vulnerable and opening up about the journey my husband and I have been on. If you haven't listened to it yet, go check it out! You asked powerful questions—about rebuilding trust, parenting in a blended family, navigating differences, and choosing love after heartbreak.

And to be honest… I almost didn’t share it. It’s easy to share the highlight reel. The anniversary photos. The blessings. But I knew that wasn’t the full story. I also knew I wouldn’t be doing you any favors if I skipped over the real parts. Because truthfully, what we have today is the result of deep personal work, trial and error, hard conversations, learning to accept and forgive each other, and keep trying…grace upon grace.

186. What Makes a Second Marriage Work After Divorce? The Hard Work Behind My Happy Ending

Hey friends, and welcome back to Find the Joy with Jenn! I’m so glad you’re here. If you’re in a season of transition—especially navigating life after divorce—today’s episode is going to speak right to your heart and your future. We're talking about something that so many of us wrestle with in this journey: money—how to manage it, how to feel confident with it, and how to rebuild your financial life when everything has changed.

Joining me today is someone I deeply admire—Kathleen Judge. Kathleen knows what it’s like to have the rug pulled out from under her. After quitting her corporate career to stay home and raise her children, she found herself suddenly and unexpectedly divorced in her 40s. Overnight, she became a single parent, solely responsible for her children’s well-being and their financial future.

Instead of staying stuck in fear, Kathleen took brave, practical steps to rebuild. She found a financial advisor she trusted, learned how to manage her own wealth, and eventually became a financial advisor herself. Now she helps others—especially those who are new to managing their own money—make smart, confident financial decisions, so they can build a future that feels secure and fulfilling.

Whether you’ve always managed your money or you’re just now learning how, today’s conversation is packed with wisdom, encouragement, and real-life strategies to help you move forward with faith and clarity.

“Believe in You, Believe in Us” by Dr. Lach is a song of devotion, like a modern psalm — a man’s vow to stand beside his beloved through trials, illness, and joy.
