Your nEXt Chapter with Dr. Nicole | Healing From Divorce and Traumatic Transitions
It's Time to Get Unstuck (w/ Danielle Boucree)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
After the paperwork is signed and the hardest days begin to pass, many women expect life to automatically feel better. But for many, that's when a different question begins to surface: "Now what?"
In this episode, I sat down with Danielle Boucree, a licensed psychotherapist, relationship expert, and founder of Hope Station and the Hope Coaching Collective. Danielle shares how women can move from feeling stuck after divorce to rebuilding a life that feels meaningful and true to who they are.
Together, we explore why it's easy to get stuck after divorce, how to reconnect with your identity, trust yourself again, and take small steps forward even when the future feels uncertain.
This episode is a reminder that you don't need to have all the answers before you begin moving forward.
