S2:Ep10 - A Happy Divorce? 🕊️☮️ w/ Salma Khan (The Divorce Coach)

The Divorced Muslim Dad Podcast 🐻

You’ve the heard terrible stories about people going through divorce right? You know the ones about two otherwise sane individuals completely losing their minds as they wrestle with the aftermath of a failed relationship. Every story is desperately sad and made even worse when you hear children are being dragged in to the squabbling and family members fanning the flames. But does it have to be this way? I think we can all agree that if divorce or a break up is inevitable then its everyone’s interest that its done amicably; especially where children are involved. But that’s clearly easier said than done. With emotions heightened its almost impossible for otherwise rational people to think clearly and act fairly. That’s where Salma Khan comes in; a highly qualified ‘Divorce Coach’ based in London helping people navigate the tricky emotional, spiritual, physical and financial terrain of a failing or failed relationship. Is she a lawyer? No. Is she a therapist? Not quite. In this episode Salma and I discuss: - What a Divorce Coach is and what they are not - How to pick a Divorce Coach - Why a Divorce Coach is not your friend - How to overcome a broken heart - Why women take on the burden of a break up - Undoing unhelpful learned behaviour - Taking care of yourself being a priority - How to maintain boundaries - What is going on with men in relationships - Plus much more… This was a truly great conversation with someone doing great work in the community to help people live better lives!
