Start Up, Start Over, or Just Start With Katie Jordan

Victim mentality can feel like protection, but over time it keeps us stuck, waiting for someone else to fix what hurts. In this episode, I sit down with Katie Jordan, a coach and community builder who helps divorced women find freedom and fulfillment after the shock wears off. Katie shares a truth I think all of us need to hear: pain is real, but so is our power to choose what happens next. Katie opens up about her own journey through deep grief, a major life transition, and the decision to stop living in the “woe is me” spiral. Together, we talk about the mindset shift from “this happened to me” to “what am I going to do about it?” and the practical tools she uses to help women move forward. We discuss the power of “I am” statements, building self-trust through small, consistent actions, how fear often disguises itself as paralysis or worry about what others think, and why having the right community can make all the difference. Katie also shares how her Butterfly Tribe Blueprint gives women a safe place to be honest, supported, and encouraged as they rebuild. Whether you're rebuilding after divorce, navigating grief, facing an unexpected life transition, or simply ready to take ownership of your next chapter, I hope this conversation reminds you that you don't have to have everything figured out. You just have to be willing to take the next step. Thank you to our generous sponsors! True Fashionistas – SWFL’s largest designer resale store, where fashion meets sustainability.
