A year after finalizing her divorce fromCory Hardrict,Tia Mowryis reflecting on her journey of self-discovery.
On Wednesday, Tia shared a candidvideo montageon her Instagram recapping the life lessons she’s learned since her split.
“Recovering from a divorce feels like a whirlwind journey," Tia said in a voiceover as she sat in bed. “I found out through the process that divorce isn’t a place where we arrive, it’s entering a new chapter in life with many nuances, and no one-size-fits-all handbook."
“One moment you’re relieved, feeling like you’ve conquered something significant, then suddenlyemotionshit you all over again. It’s a side of divorce that isn’t often discussed, especially when there are kids involved.”
Tia and Cory share two children together — their 12-year-old sonCreeand 5-year-old daughter Cairo.
Tia added that she wanted to be a role model for her children, showing them what resilience and self-care looks like. She also opened up about trying different things to help soothe and release the “emotional buildup” living inside of her with activities like exercise, journaling, meditation, and therapy.
While reflecting on everything she’s been through, Tia became emotional and began to cry.
“Someday I believe I’ll be able to look back on this time with nothing but warmth and gratitude for the beautiful children brought into my life and the stronger version of myself that emerged from the experience."
“As women we take our power back by sharing our stories and bringing any deep shame we hold from this experience into the light. I love you guys."
