A myth about children of divorce is that the impact of our parents’ divorce is temporary. That’s simply not true, which research proves. Sadly, the effects last long after the divorce itself. 

Our guest today shares how his parents divorce has impacted him, even 20 years later in his own marriage. We discuss:

• How he felt lost when it came to dating and relationships, how breakups felt like a repeat of his parents’ divorce, and how he irrationally fears that his spouse is going to leave one day
• What it’s like to go through a divorce in a Mexican family
• What to do when you’re unsure how to articulate a feeling or experience you’ve endured, especially related to your broken family
• A story on having a difficult conversation with his mom, which offers good lessons for having a difficult conversation with your parents
