*Please comment and share* If you want to succeed in dating, marriage, and friendship, OR are divorced and want to know why, listen in as Matthew Fray, author of This is how your marriage ends: A hopeful approach to saving relationships, shares how our seemingly innocent behaviors we do with no thought destroys love and trust.
Matthew discusses how generally perceived innocent or benign acts in a relationship can erode and destroy trust over time. A relationship absent trust does not feel safe. More importantly, losing trust does not have to be caused by a major event. He relates the story of his marriage ending because of dishes left in the sink.
Matthew shares the invalidating triple threat in relationships: We contradict our spouseās intellectual experiences; we contradict their emotional experience; and we defend our character and justify our actions based on what we knew at the time. Therefore, we imply that we will repeat the behaviors.
Matthew encourages us to begin to see people through their perspective. For those already divorced, he helps to understand what went wrong and how to avoid a similar problem in future relationships.

What is post-separation abuse? It is abuse that continues after you have physically separated from your spouse. It does not have to mean physical violence.

*Please share this podcast with friends, subscribe, and leave a comment or question.* If you are divorcing and have adult children, you might be surprised to learn that they also experience grief and loss. Your divorce can shake their foundation. Listen in as Linda Hershman, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, shares the significant impact on the adult children of divorcing parents and steps you should take to ease the transition.
Linda relates that adult children suffer an ambiguous loss, yet society expects them to āsuck it upā and get over it. She shares concrete rules for managing adult children during divorce. Her number one rule is that you should always love your children more than you hate your ex. That means not giving the adult children the gory details, resisting the urge to trash talk your ex, and learning to be independent and not looking to your children as substitutes for your ex.
Facing a parentsā divorce can be very emotionally challenging, especially if it comes at a time when the adult children are raising their own families and may have small children, or they were out of the house and did not see conflicts in the marriage. Linda shares actionable tips on how to break the news, discuss when the other parent is lying, and how to navigate when an affair partner is involved.

Listen in as Tim Wade, a relationship coach for men, shares the work he does to diffuse the divorce bomb when she wants out.

Tim shares that women, on average, plan their escapes for two years. Some red flags for men to pay attention to include: a detachment, she stops trying to make the marriage work. She stops nagging.

*Please share this podcast with friends, subscribe, and leave a comment or question.* Are you and your spouse at the brink of divorce? Is your marriage teetering on the edge and you are not sure if you should file for divorce? Listen in as Demetrius and Emily Russell share how their marriage was at the precipice of a cliff and they found a way back to a married life they love to live together.
Demetrius and Emily Russell have been married 27 years. Twelve years into their marriage, they entered a rocky time and Emily knew she was unhappy enough to want a divorce. Emily, by nature, was an independent woman who came into the marriage with her own identity. She had a career as a Registered Nurse and became a Business Project Senior Analyst with a major corporation. Over time, she found that her identity was lost in the marriage and she no longer knew who she was. This was not how she wanted to live her life. Demetrius was blindsided when Emily gathered the courage to share her unhappiness. The couple separated in the home, and discussed divorce.
After a period of months separated, Demetrius and Emily came to the hard truth that they wanted to fight for their marriage. They share their inspiring story of the steps they took to regain the foundation of friendship they had when they first met and the resolve to save their relationship. Demetrius and Emily also discuss the secret sauce to getting out of the rut of living as roommates and building a strong foundation for a lasting marriage.

Weād love to hear from you! Please leave a comment or question. A rating and review is much appreciated too! Divorce is a cruel monster. It sweeps away our self-confidence, unnerves our soul, and leaves us wondering how we will take the next step to rebuild our lives. In this episode, we will hear one manās story of how he suffered a major career set-back that was the impetus for a holistic and deep view of personal transformation. His story has many parallels to divorce.
Demetrius Russell is a Director of Human Resources and a true thought leader in the world of professional development. He is accustomed to mentoring others to achieve their true potential. He is a people whisperer ā speaking life into those who feel beaten down by missteps on the job and opening the window to their true potential and calling.
When Demetrius lost his job - admittedly his own fault - he knew he needed to step back and take time for a personal transformation. His transformation was distinguished by three key elements: spiritual health, mental health, and physical health. His journey was 382 days in the making. In the process of becoming stronger spiritually and mentally, he lost more than 50 pounds. He gained the confidence to secure his next position as a Human Resources Director for a global company where he is thriving today. Endurance is going beyond the point you want to give up. Demetrius endured despair, self-doubt, and tremendous worry, and now shares his story to encourage people wading in the deep waters of divorce.

Sleep is a very vulnerable psychological state and if we do not feel safe and secure in our social environment, it will have severe consequences to our ability to achieve restorative sleep. The brain has a lymphatic system and sleep serves to wash away toxins. Divorce prompts situational stress that leads to sleepless nights, which affects our ability to think logically and rationally at a time we need it most.
Listen as Morgan Adams, a double certified holistic sleep coach shares natural strategies to avoid prescription drugs, reclaim your rest and rediscover the land of bountiful sleep crucial to your good health and clear mind.
Morgan shares her story of going from relying on prescription medications to becoming a holistic sleep coach teaching others the secrets to a good night's rest.

Episode #23 - The Path to Forgiveness
Finding your path to forgive your ex-partner is agonizing. Listen in as Angie Hooper, founder of the Forgiveness Path, shares practical action steps to break free from the pain of divorce and move forward without regrets.
Forgiveness is a timely topic for the holidays as families are gathering and as we are preparing to begin a new year and our minds are centered on transformation. Angie is a practicing attorney and certified professional coach who developed the Forgiveness Path to help people gain mastery over the skill of forgiveness.
There are many myths around forgiveness. One myth is that if we stuff it down, it will go away and we must forgive and forget. Or that forgiveness can only be realized if we are religious; we must tell the other person we have forgiven them; or we are better off following the mantra of "let Karma take care of it."
Angela shares the physical effects of hanging onto hate and the steps we must take to begin living a life free of the mental stronghold hate has on our lives.

It is very common for people who are in divorce to want to obtain a revenge bod. That's when you get revenge on your ex by showing him/her what they are missing. Maybe they are jumping into exercise as a coping mechanism or joining a pickleball group to meet new people. Listen as Jason Robertson, M.D., a non-operative orthopaedic specialist, shares tips on the best way to begin getting active and avoid common injuries.
Dr. Robertson recommends people undergo a functional movement screening to determine what muscle groups or joints are at risk for injuries. That screening can give you a tailored program to strengthen the areas that may be subject to injuries. A functional movement screen is generally available at physical therapists' offices.
Warming up prior to exercise is a must, and Dr. Robertson shares how to do it properly.
While we may want to dive in to an aggressive exercise program to achieve that ideal body, Dr. Robertson suggests you increase activity no more than 10 percent per week and incorporating appropriate rest days. Going aggressive too soon will lead to injuries. If you are injured, he shares guidelines for how soon to seek help.
Dr. Robertson gives unique insight into his work with professional sports teams and how he is inspired by his work.

After decades of marriage, many people find themselves in a battle with their inner critic. I'm unhappy. Should I stay or should I leave my marriage? Sometimes, the decision ping pongs back and forth for months and even years, while life is suspended in veritable quicksand. We are held held hostage in our unhappiness and chained to inaction, unable to make a move in either direction. There are so many things to consider in that very difficult decision: money, the adult children, shared property, losing it all. What if you could go to someone who could aid you in discerning the best path forward for you? Join the Silver Divorce Podcast as Ellen Holtzman, a psychologist with more than 30 years of experience, shares how Discernment Counseling helps individuals and couples gain clarity around the decision to stay in the marriage or leave.

In many marriages, women are not involved in the family finances and have no idea what is available in many different accounts. The prospect of divorce or leaving an unhappy marriage can fill them with dread and fear that this life transition may leave them without enough money to live on or they may lose what they worked to save. It is common to feel stressed about making the right financial decisions in the moment while wondering how to get from where you are to creating a secure life.
Join the Silver Divorce Podcast as Phil Weiss, founder of Apprise Wealth Management, discusses the E.V.O.K.E. financial life planning process, which walks women through a journey of self-discovery to plan for a more secure future while transitioning to a new single life.

The Holiday Season is a joyful and beautiful time of year. When you are separated, divorced, or in the process of divorce, it can be an extremely painful and emotional time. There are so many questions to answer. Where are the kids going for each holiday and when? How do we split the family? Can we agree on spending limits for the kids or grandkids? What about traditional friend parties? Will we both attend? Will the girlfriend or boyfriend be there? How do the in-laws or grandparents fit in?
Listen as Pat Owens, a Divorce Care facilitator with decades of experience, shares strategies for coping with conflict and the emotional roller coaster during the holidays.

Substance abuse is cited as the main factor in nearly 35 percent of divorces. Older adults are using opioids, alcohol, marijuana, and heroin at increasing rates. So much so, that it is being called the silent epidemic. Listen as Debbie Loudermilk, the Director of Outpatient Services for the Council for Alcohol and Drug Abuse Services, discusses why this is happening at increasing rates and who is most at risk.
Drug abuse among older adults is often hard to detect because the signs and symptoms mimic those of old age. Substance abuse can have a significant negative effect on diabetes, heart failure, and raise one's risk for heart attack.
Debbie shares the signals that someone is abusing drugs or alcohol, as well as how to go about discussing it with a loved one, if you suspect substance abuse is happening.

Is it possible to create a life you will love as a single person after decades of marriage? While in the traumatic divorce legal process, it is hard to imagine the future. We often think we are too old to start over, we will never marry or find love again, and are doomed to a solitary, lonely life.
Join us as life coach Holly Holloway discusses a path forward to creating a new life after divorce. She shares strategies to stop the ruminating that keeps us firmly mired in the mud. Focusing on the future starts with allowing ourselves to feel our feelings and heal so we can begin to believe in ourselves and our capabilities.

Lack of physical intimacy is cited as one of the top four factors in divorce. Oftentimes when one is coming out of a long term marriage where physical intimacy has been absent for a long time, many people make recapturing this a priority, perhaps before they have taken time to heal and know themselves.
Join me as Karisa Kaye, a certified sex therapist helps us to understand today's attitudes and norms concerning physical intimacy while dating.
In this episode, we'll discuss the dangers, especially for women, to casual sex. On the other hand, there are definite health benefits we'll talk about as well.
If you've jumped into the dating pool, how do you know when the time is right to be physically intimate? Having physical relations with someone new after being with the same partner for decades brings up its own set of anxieties and emotions.
The prevalence of the porn industry has shaped how men and women view physical intimacy. Karisa discusses this shift and how to handle situations where you might be asked to perform acts that make you uncomfortable.

Many people agonize over the decision to divorce because they reference the Bible, Malachi 2:16, which says, "For I hate divorce, says the Lord the God of Israel." They are compelled to stay in a marriage that is mentally and sometimes physically harmful for that reason. The first rule of scripture interpretation is context. Why did he say those words? Who ws he saying them to? What else did he say in that passage referencing divorce?
Join us as Betsy Kammerdiener, a pastor and ordained minister helps to unpack the meaning behind scripture. We'll also discuss why God doesn't seem to answer prayers to "fix my marriage."
In this episode, we discuss the church and divorce. Many churches seem to struggle with what to do about divorced couples. Why does it seem like the church keeps divorced people at arm's length?
Finally, if you are in the midst of divorce and struggling with your faith, Betsy has recommendations to help you mentally and spiritually.
