About this listen
Journalist and author Kate Halfpenny joins Sabina Read to share her raw and unflinching story of divorce, remarriage, midlife reinvention and love in the face of addiction. Drawing from her memoir Boogie Wonderland, Kate speaks with courage and candour about the grief of divorce, the challenges of raising children through separation, and the unexpected struggles of her second marriage when addiction surfaced. With warmth and humour, she reflects on what it means to honour love even as relationships change, and how resilience, honesty and connection can carry us through life’s toughest chapters.
This is not just a conversation about divorce or addiction – it’s a conversation about what it means to be human, to stay open when it would be easier to shut down, and to find hope in the places we feel most alone.
