My story...
about Kashmira
My journey taught me invaluable lessons. At the age of 37, with 3 children aged 2, 7 and 9, living without family, in a foreign country, I found myself in an impossible situation that could only end in divorce.
Initially, (driven by fear and anxiety) I hired the No 1 law firm in the country thinking they would take care of everything. I expected them to deal with matters quickly and efficiently. I expected them to prioritise the children. I expected justice and fairness. Sadly, none of that actually happened.
And it’s a path best traveled with support and camaraderie.
In our sessions, I'll share the ups and downs of my path / and a quarter of a million dollars worth of learning from the best in the business / not just as a coach, but as someone who’s walked a similar road, to inspire your journey.
I'll admit that many times during my divorce, I felt like a martyr.
Always forcing myself to take the "high road" for the "sake of the children" and I'd angrily question myself,
"why should I always take the high road?"
"why does he get to get away with murder whilst I'm holding myself up to some saintly, goddess level standard?"
We are not aiming for perfection in parenting. We are aiming for peace and progress.
And, with the right guidance and method, it is attainable without the awful struggle and stress. Whether parenting or co-parenting.
in the end...
My divorce spanned 6.5 years,
traveled across 2 continents,
10,000+ pages in affidavits,
ultimately won every final hearing, on my own, against a team of fancy lawyers on the other side.
Believe me, I understand every fear and struggle.
In reality, the children were an afterthought and three years down the line I couldn't afford the lawyers anymore anyway. But, fortunately, by that point, something else amazing had happened. I had learned from an army of experts.
By simply being forced to go through the process, I had gained incredible knowledge! I had learned how to clear my mind, control my emotions and found myself able to handle, and triumph, over every vexatious application, accusation, mind game and dirty trick in the book. All the while growing as a parent to protect my relationship with my children as well as their mental and emotional wellbeing.

Imagine
— LEILA, mum of 2
No one saw how much I was struggling. I wore a smile, but inside I was numb.
My husband convinced me that all our problems were in my head and it was all my fault. So I did everything I could to make things right including going on courses and changing my look but nothing was working and I could feel myself losing control.
That's when I contacted Kashmira. She and I broke down the story until I could see every part of it so clearly that I couldn't understand how I never saw it for what it was before. I felt so empowered that my fears were replaced with strength and the Court stuff just became so much easier. Kashmira is a divorce BFF 100%.

I was angry all the time, at my ex, at the system, at myself. Kashmira helped me peel back the layers and meet myself with compassion. That changed everything for me. I stopped reacting and started responding. I’m not perfect, but now I parent with less fear and more love.
