What do I want?
What does peace actually feel like?

How Divorced Women Design Their Next Identity Without Starting Over from Scratch
How Divorced Women Design Their Next Identity Without Starting Over from Scratch is Dr. Alana Sharps’ empowering webinar series created for women who are ready to stop living in the shadow of a past relationship and start redesigning life on their own terms. This live, free experience is designed to help women reset by leaving the past behind, recapture their confidence, reframe the role of boundaries in their next chapter, and begin building a new life with clarity, purpose, and support. It is more than a webinar—it is an invitation into a positive, uplifting space where women can rediscover themselves, reclaim their power, and take their first steps toward the life they were meant to live.

“One of the things people don’t tell you about divorce is that as a woman, our identity can be very closely tied to who we are in a relationship.
If you are a woman in the divorce process or post-divorce and you are feeling that sense of ‘who am I’ and what do I need to do to move forward I highly recommend you work with Dr. Sharps. She is a phenomenal resource, a phenomenal coach, and she truly has both the lived experience and the expertise to be the best guide for your next season.”
— Mardi“Alana has been an excellent resource and advocate for me during the most challenging situation I’ve encountered in my life. My husband left me with three children several weeks ago and I was able to consult with Ms. Sharps who has helped me see that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and that I am strong enough to get through this”
— Melecia“When you’re married, you know your role as a wife, you know your role as a mother. But then you become single, and it’s this whole new world you have to reenter a world you probably hadn’t been in for many years.
The hardest part was when my ex got into a relationship and even remarried before I did. Those feelings were really, really tough to navigate on my own.
Working with Dr. Alana helped me understand that divorce was not a failure, and I am not a failure. She allowed me to heal to a place where I said, ‘I welcome this next chapter in my life.’ That’s the greatest gift.”
