You Can Rise Again: Tools for Decision-Making in Times of Shock

Start Your Comeback: Rebuilding after Divorce, Empty Nest, and Loss of Spouse

I would love to hear from you! Send a text!

The moment when life pulls the rug out from under you doesn't just bring shock—it opens the door for doubt to flood in. Whether you're facing divorce, job loss, an empty nest, or an unexpected diagnosis, that one-two punch can leave you questioning everything, even your ability to make basic decisions.
Having walked through my own devastating transition when my marriage ended, I remember sitting on my living room couch feeling like the air had been sucked out of the room. The questions came immediately: What now? What did I do wrong? Can I even come back from this? That's doubt moving in while you're still reeling from shock.
Doubt is particularly dangerous because it masquerades as rational thinking. It whispers that you're not strong enough, that you'll never bounce back, that perhaps you weren't meant for more. But here's the truth—doubt isn't discernment. It's fear with a megaphone, offering you safety in exchange for smallness, wanting you to shrink your dreams and ultimately settle. You weren't made just to survive, especially not in these pivotal moments.
In this episode, I share five practical tools to break the doubt cycle during shock: naming it aloud, anchoring to truth, phoning a friend who can hold faith for you, journaling doubts alongside truth, and using prayer as your lifeline. These strategies help you regain clarity before making any major decisions.
I'm also thrilled to announce my first book, "Start Your Comeback," releasing late fall 2025! The book draws from years of walking through transitions and coaching others through theirs. Until then, join me next week as we continue this series on doubt and decision-making in the limbo stage. Remember, the scoreboard doesn't close until God says so—your comeback story is still being written. Ready to take that first step? Schedule a coaching call today.
