When we get news from our ex sometimes we can feel confusing emotions. Samantha is asking for help figuring out why she's feeling conflicted with this news from her ex.
Listen in as I teach her how to figure out what's really going on. Once you can get to the root of what's causing the conflicted emotions, then you can decide how you want to intentionally think and feel moving forward.
Emotions can be confusing, especially when we feel positive and negative ones about the same thing. Understanding the underlying thoughts causing the confusing feelings can help you let go of what's keeping you stuck and instead choose intentionally how you want to think and feel moving forward. I can teach you how to do that so it becomes second nature. Click here to schedule your free consult with me to find out more.

Welcome to Friday Flip on the Becoming You Again podcast. Every Friday I take your divorce problems, conundrums and questions and do a quick flip around to empower you to show up as the best you after divorce.
Today’s question comes from Samantha. She says, “My ex is having a baby. I’m happy for them but I’m also feeling upset. I need help figuring out why I’m so upset because I’m happily remarried, I’m happy for my ex, I just can’t shake this feeling. Help.”
Samantha thanks for your question. When I have a client who is struggling to understand what’s going on that is causing confusing emotions I like to start by asking why and then if it doesn’t uncover it with just that question, then we just keep asking why, why, why deeper and deeper and deeper. Okay. Ask yourself this, “Why is him having a baby a problem for you?” Know your knee jerk answer might be to say I don’t know, but I promise you that answer is not true and it’s keeping you stuck. You do know the answer. Give yourself permission to be open to your thoughts without judgement. And when you can do that you will allow yourself to answer the question honestly, and you’ll stop feeling really confused as to why you’re feeling upset by this. From there you can continue to ask why if it hasn’t completely brought awareness for you, or you’ll have the awareness of what’s going and then you can decide intentionally how you want to think and feel about this new baby moving forward.
That was a great question Samantha. Thank you so much. I’ll talk to you next week.
That’s your Friday flip! Stay tuned for the weekly podcast episode that comes out every Monday.
