What happens when joy and grief exist at the same time? When relief and anxiety, love and loss, confidence and doubt all show up together?
This is a conversation about navigating the messy middle of divorce, parenting, and identity shifts—and what it really means to hold two truths at once. About the transition anxiety of major life changes when nothing feels clear. For anyone moving through a transition and wondering if they're doing it right.
In this opening episode of It's Both, host Nikki P shares a personal story about divorce, parenting, and identity shift—exploring the emotional regulation it takes to sit with mixed emotions, make sense of overthinking during big life changes, and stay grounded when the gap between who you were and who you're becoming feels overwhelming.
You'll hear honest reflection on navigating transitions after divorce while parenting young kids, the pressure to "do it right," how identity changes when the life you built no longer fits, and practical ways to hold mixed emotions without shutting down.
In this episode:
- Navigating transitions after divorce while parenting young kids
- Overthinking, emotional tension, and decision making
- Identity shifts when the life you built no longer fits
- Practical ways to hold mixed emotions without shutting down
- Building emotional resilience without toxic positivity
- The anxiety of major life changes
- Grief and relief showing up simultaneously
If you're moving through a major transition—divorce, family change, or a season of becoming—this episode offers language, validation, and permission to be unfinished. Healing isn't linear. You don't have to choose between truths to move forward.
Because life isn't either/or—it's both.
