Divorce and Mental Health: Real Talk on First Day Pod

In the end, my point being here is that we need to be more sensitive to the trauma of divorce, because I feel like it gets kind of cast aside a little bit more, or people will be like uh-huh, uh-huh.
Divorce isn't just a legal process; it's an emotional whirlwind that can leave lasting scars. In this episode of 'First Day Pod', hosts Leigh Ann and Michael Govier dive into the mental health impact of divorce. They kick things off by discussing their ongoing battles with food addiction, setting the stage for an honest and raw conversation about the challenges of splitting up. Ever wondered if staying together for the kids is really the best option?
Or how rotating weekends can affect your mental well-being? These are just some of the tough questions they tackle. The episode doesn't shy away from the deep trauma that divorce can cause, emphasizing the importance of acknowledging and addressing these feelings. Leigh Ann and Michael share their personal stories, making the discussion relatable and heartfelt.
They also bring in insights from licensed counselor Matthew Gauvier, who sheds light on how addiction can intertwine with divorce and offers practical tips for healing and forgiveness. If you're navigating the choppy waters of divorce or know someone who is, this episode provides a compassionate and insightful look into the emotional aftermath. It's a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the complex relationship between divorce and mental health.
