Welcome to another episode of the Divorce Survival Guide podcast, where we have real, honest, smart, and sometimes even hilarious conversations about co-parenting, separation, and divorce, and all that goes along with that.

I'm Kate Anthony, your divorce survival guide, and today I have with me my dear friend, Sandy

Herrera.

Sandy is the creator of Got Core Values, a nonprofit that is successfully creating positive

cultures in schools leading to higher graduation rates and happier teachers.

And she is a divorced mom of a 16 year old son. And today she is

joining me to talk about how she married and divorced the same man twice and her journey

throughout that process. Welcome, Sandy. Thanks for coming on to talk about your story.

Thank you so much for having me.

I'm so excited to catch up with you.

I know, right?

This is for everybody listening, this is going to be really informative.

For me and Sandy, this is an opportunity for us to catch up.

Just full disclosure, Sandy and I went through our organization and relationship systems coaching,

training together.

And so we've been in each other's orbits for a long time.

How many years ago was that?

Oh, my God.

I don't even know.

I think it was 2012.

Six years?

Yeah. It's been a long time. Wow. I think it was 2000. Was it? Anyway, something like that. I don't know. Years passed me by. I missed a whole decade. Years of my child's life or a blur. I think that's true. I hear that from so many moms. It's like that first decade of your children's life. You look back and go, wait. What happens? It's like just 1990 something. All of a sudden it's 2012. Someone said, I think it's so apt. Someone said the days go really slowly, but the years fly by. Right? And that is like, I think that that really hits the nail on the head for parenting
