Have you ever built everything society told you to build and still felt completely unfulfilled? In this episode, I sit down with master certified life coach Katie Pulsifer to talk about one of the biggest questions women are asking right now: what actually brings me joy?

Katie has over 13 years of coaching experience, including five years as an executive leader at the Life Coach School. She has trained thousands of coaches and helped countless women navigate major life transitions with clarity, courage, and confidence. Her own journey through divorce, career upheaval, and rediscovering herself is what brought her to this work, and her story is one you will not want to miss.

We cover:

• Why your brain actively argues against your dreams and how to override it

• A simple sensory exercise to figure out what brings you joy when you have no idea

• The difference between happiness and joy and why it matters

• Dating again after divorce and overcoming the fear of being alone

• Self-abandonment in relationships and how to stop people-pleasing

• What women are chasing that they do not actually need

• How to find a great coach and what to look for

• Katie's Golden Coaching Certification program for women who want to coach others

If there is one thing to take away from this episode, it is that courage does not have to come all at once. It can show up in the smallest moments, and that is enough to start.

In this episode of Talk with Tara, I sit down with family law attorney, certified family law specialist, mediator, and author Diana Romanov for an eye-opening conversation about what really happens during divorce.

Whether you're contemplating separation, currently going through a divorce, supporting a friend through one, or simply want to understand how the process works, this episode is packed with practical advice and insights.

Diana shares powerful stories from her years of experience helping clients navigate some of life's most difficult transitions. She also explains why staying logical, informed, and emotionally supported can save families significant stress, time, and money.

One of my favorite takeaways from this conversation is that divorce is not just a legal process. It's also an emotional, financial, and personal transformation. The more informed and empowered you are, the better decisions you'll make for yourself and your family.
