Katie Holmes is enjoying life after divorce with husband Tom Cruise but has hired a confidence coach to get back on track professionally.

Katie Holmes ended her five-year marriage with Tom Cruise in June and is said to be enjoying her life as a single mother. However, she has been struggling a bit on the professional front in terms of the confidence she once had about herself. Even though her clothing line has seen a remarkable growth in sales the actress still needs something a little more, and for that she hired a 'confidence coach' to help her regain who she once was.

A source told Grazia magazine, "Finally free from Tom, Katie is keen to find her own voice. So she has sought professional help and has employed a confidence coach who she's been seeing once a week to help her regain who she once was."

Although Holmes has no regrets about the split, insiders say she is struggling to sleep because she has a lot on her mind at the moment.

 "The glow and radiance that defined Katie post-split seem to have evaporated. She won't have anticipated that she would suffer from a complete lack of self-confidence, and what it would actually feel like not being Mrs. Tom Cruise. It's like she's struggling to regain her own identity while balancing work, motherhood and keeping Suri grounded," The source said. "With so much on her mind, it's hardly surprising that she's not sleeping for more than five hours a night. She doesn't regret what she did - far from it. But she's found it harder to carry as normal these past few weeks."

Holmes has already been linked with quite a few men after her split. Only recently was she spotted enjoying a dinner date with a mystery man who later was found to be her attorney Jonathan Wolfe. It was later clarified that it was not a romantic dinner date and Wolfe's wife Renee was also present at dinner. Prior to that, Holmes was said to have found comfort and support in ex-boyfriend and now good friend Chris Klein. The two were engaged when Holmes got together with Cruise instead. However, the friendship between Holmes and Klein didn't burn out as the two have been spending time together of late.

An insider told Heat Magazine, "Chris has been a huge source of support. They've stayed on good terms since they broke up and he's one of Katie's few really solid friends."

"Because of Tom she was really isolated. She only hung out with people who Tom and the [Scientology] Church had pre-approved, so she hardly has any friends," the source revealed.

"Having Chris as a shoulder to cry on, has been a huge help for Katie. It wouldn't surprise anyone if they became more than just friends," the insider added.
