Have you ever wondered why divorce pain feels so different from grief?

While both bring heartache, the complexities of divorce might surprise you.

For many, divorce doesn't come with the emotional closure or community support associated with grief, leaving people to navigate an ongoing emotional landscape with no roadmap.

In this episode, Dr. Janice Cohen, a psychotherapist and author, breaks down the profound emotional challenges unique to divorce, especially for parents trying to protect their children's well-being.

By tuning in, you’ll gain:

1. A clearer understanding of why divorce can be emotionally harder to process than death.
2. Insight into maintaining healthy co-parenting relationships for your children’s benefit.
3. Practical advice on managing intense feelings constructively during divorce.

Don’t miss this deep dive into navigating divorce and mental health; press play now to learn strategies for emotional resilience and family harmony.

• During these turbulent times, when there is so much hate and division, listeners might want to know about my award-winning book which tells the true story of how an American town came together to support and protect their neighbours from acts of hate during the 1993 holiday season. To me, this book embodies the true meaning of Christmas and Hanukkah. Information about the book, The Christmas Menorahs, can be obtained by visiting www.thechristmasmenorahs.com

Dear Podcast Listener,

Thank you for your support. This podcast aims to support dads all over the world, especially those struggling with their mental health.

This podcast is my hobby, but I'd like it to become much more than that one day. For that to happen, I need the support of either one very wealthy angel investor or a few thousand, possibly slightly less wealthy (but no less generous) angel investors.

To develop the podcast and hopefully support more dads, I need some help. With that in mind, if you enjoyed this episode and want to help me with what I'm trying to do,

here is the link where you can leave a tip.

ALL tips, regardless of size, are hugely appreciated, and as a thank you, anyone who leaves a tip will be entitled to a voice note message from me on their next birthday.

Just contact me via the website

Thanks again for your support, and take care of yourself

James
