After a divorce, the urge to re-enter the dating world can be powerful—but is it coming from readiness or restlessness? In this heartfelt episode, we explore the crucial question: How do you know when you're truly ready to start dating again?

We unpack the emotional traps of dating too soon, the signs that you’re healing versus hiding, and practical markers of genuine readiness. Through real listener stories and thoughtful reflection, this episode offers a grounded, compassionate roadmap for protecting your peace, honoring your growth, and dating with clarity and purpose.

Whether you're considering your first date post-divorce or pressing pause after a few missteps, this episode will help you move forward with strength, wisdom, and intention.

In Episode 26 of Dealing with Divorce, we take a pause from teaching and lean into testimony. Today, you’ll hear the heartfelt journey of a listener named Rachel, who turned her pain into purpose and her heartbreak into healing.

Through her own words, Rachel shares how she navigated the messy aftermath of divorce—how she reclaimed her mornings, her courage, her laughter, and ultimately, herself. Her story is a powerful reminder that healing doesn’t happen all at once, but with every small, intentional step forward.

This episode is for anyone who’s still in the middle of the hard parts. It’s for those who feel stuck, numb, or unsure if joy is even possible again. Rachel’s story proves that it is.

You’ll walk away with:

• Encouragement to trust your own process, no matter how slow

• Hope that laughter and light can return, even after darkness

• The motivation to keep going—because your story is still being written

Sometimes the most powerful voices are the ones that sound just like yours. Tune in and be reminded that transformation is possible—and it might be closer than you think.

In Episode 25 of Dealing with Divorce, we focus on one of the most powerful shifts in the healing process: choosing to believe that better days are not only possible—they’re on the way. Divorce can leave you feeling shattered and unsure, but even in the quietest, most painful moments, your future is still unfolding.
