Still Standing
What to Remember When You Start to Doubt Yourself
A One-Page Reality Check for Women Choosing Divorce in Midlife
Because choosing yourself is f*cking hard;
but staying in the stagnation is slowly killing you inside.
Divorce is brutal.
One day you feel empowered.
The next, you’re drowning in guilt, grief, and second-guessing.
This isn’t just a breakup.
It’s decades of expectations, identity, family, and rituals being torn apart.
You know in your gut this is what’s best for you, but your decades of people pleasing and good girl conditioning get in the way of you prioritizing you.
Still standing? Damn right you are.
If you’re reading this, it means something cracked open.
Maybe you’re still deciding.
Maybe you’re in the thick of it.
Maybe you’re still asking, “Can I really do this?”
Maybe you’re ready to put the pieces back together.
Wherever you are, you’re not crazy, broken, or selfish.
You’re a woman who is waking up to the truth of her life.
I created this guide because divorce isn’t just paperwork and logistics.
It’s grief.
It’s identity loss.
It’s rage and guilt and relief all tangled together.
This one-page guide is your lifeline when the “what ifs” start screaming.
It’s for the woman who knows she can’t keep shrinking, but still wakes up asking,
“Am I really doing the right thing?”
You are.
And this guide will remind you why.
Who This Is For….
Still Standing is for the woman who:
Is in the thick of divorce and constantly second-guesses herself
Feels responsible for everyone’s feelings but her own
Has been gaslighting her intuition for years, and is ready to stop
Wants to remember she’s not selfish, crazy, or failing, she’s just finally choosing herself
Needs a reminder she’s not alone
Inside this free guide, you’ll find:
10 bold reminders to ground you in truth and self-trust
Validation for the messy, complicated emotions no one talks about
Mindset reframes to cut through guilt, fear, and self-doubt
A visual anchor for your fridge, mirror, or nightstand
A spark of hope when everything feels like too much
This isn’t fluff.
It’s real talk for the days when you forget how strong you are.
With love and courage,
Karen

I would recommend Karen for anyone looking for self improvement, understanding, growth, life purpose, self love and respect, and finding focus and direction. ”
“Karen was exactly the person I needed to help me gain clarity over my life. She is personable, relatable, and supportive. She was able to relate to my situation and suggest ways for me to discover what I wanted out of MY life. Karen genuinely cares and brings a good balance between professionalism and friendliness. I highly recommend her. ”
“When working with Karen, I started to get this bravery and speak my truth. Let’s face it, change is hard. I have been searching for myself for a long time and I can really see what I want now and I’m not backing down. It is very freeing.
I highly recommend women to work with Karen. To have a woman who has been through her own things in life and cheer us on and remind us we can do anything and we are strong. If you want to find your true self, start a new career, run a marathon, whatever, what better way to do it than to have someone as your own personal cheerleader? ”
