Episode 29 — Grieving the End of a Marriage: Why You Can’t Rush Healing After Divorce

Divorce isn’t just the end of a relationship — it’s the loss of a version of yourself. The routines, the shared dreams, the imagined future — they all collapse at once.

In this episode, Grant talks about the kind of grief that doesn’t get enough recognition: the pain that follows divorce. It’s a different kind of heartbreak — one where the person is still alive, but everything you built together is gone.

We explore the common urge to “move on faster” and why that mindset often backfires. You’ll hear why grief after divorce can feel so heavy, what keeps people emotionally stuck, and how to begin rebuilding from a place of truth rather than speed.

This episode offers a grounded look at what actually helps — from cutting energetic ties and facing emotions head-on, to rediscovering your identity outside the relationship.

Because real healing doesn’t come from rushing. It comes from slowing down enough to let yourself rebuild — not as who you were, but as who you’re becoming.

🎧 Tune in to The Grief Guardian Podcast for an honest, heartfelt look at divorce grief — and how to stop trying to “get over it” and start actually healing.
