Restored: Helping Children of Divorce

#080: My Parents’ Divorce Made Me Question Everything | Paula Chambers, PhD


Listen Later

For so many of us, our parents’ divorce causes us to question everything — especially if it came out of the blue. We ask ourselves: What won’t fall apart? We may even go through life feeling like there’s a disaster around every corner and as a result, so often we play it safe in life. 

We discuss that and more in this episode as my guest shares:

  • How she blamed herself for the breakdown of her parents’ marriage
  • How nobody was there for her
  • How she struggled with low self-esteem, self-harm, and acting out sexually
  • How she never had children because she feared she couldn’t be a good mom
