"I know it sounds terrible... but for a little while, I almost felt free."

When Gabriella's marriage ended, she wasn't just navigating divorce. She was trying to parent a toddler who was still waking multiple times a night while rebuilding an entirely new life.

In this episode, family lawyer, author and mum of two Gabriella Pomare shares the story nobody saw behind closed doors. We talk about divorce, co-parenting, sleep deprivation, blended families, parenting after separation and the complicated emotions that can come with sharing your child.

Gabriella also opens up about introducing a new partner, becoming a step-parent, raising two very different children and why guilt follows so many mums long after a relationship ends.

This is an honest conversation about divorce, motherhood, co-parenting and discovering that life after separation can still be full of hope.

If you've ever searched for divorce after having children, co-parenting, blended families, sleep deprivation or wondered how other mums survive separation, this episode is for you.
