About this listen

In this podcast episode, Doreen and Jeff delve into the complex emotions surrounding divorce, specifically the challenge of distinguishing between the emotional pain (the hurt) and the inherent difficulty (how hard it is).

Perhaps you’re feeling lost, overwhelmed, angry, or even numb. You might be questioning why it hurts so deeply and why it feels so incredibly challenging.

Here’s the key insight: the “hurt” and the “hard” are not the same. Hurt encompasses the heartbreak, the grief, and the sting of broken trust or unfulfilled dreams. On the other hand, hard refers to everything else — the paperwork, the learning curve of co-parenting, the challenges of identity shifts, and the daily challenges that come with transition .

It’s completely normal to experience both emotions. You’re not alone; you’re human. This podcast aims to create a space for all of these feelings, offering clarity, perspective, and a path forward.
