Healing

In the Live Happy interview, Beauvais explained how she managed to heal from the betrayal of her husband’s actions and the hurt of the fact that her marriage was not only what she thought it was, it was over.

“When you’re going through something like this, all your friends want to rally around you and help you escape. Let’s go to a spa. Let’s go have drinks. And what I found was I needed to be still and let myself feel the pain. I think that’s what helped me recover, perhaps quicker than normal. It was the most excruciating pain I’d ever experienced in my life but I didn’t mask it, I didn’t try to distract myself, I didn’t put a Band-Aid on it. My biggest goal was to be able to co-parent with my ex. Our sons were 3, and I knew he was going to be in my life for a very long time. I didn’t grow up with a dad, and I never saw an intact relationship. It was important for me that my kids did. That was my mission.”

Beauvais also said that she saw a therapist for the first time during the split. Her therapist asked her what was it that she always wanted to do. She answered write.  From there she authored her first children’s book. I am Awesome.
