171. Not Living in Limbo: How to Take Back Your Life During Divorce


Listen Later

Do you feel like your life is on pause until your divorce is finalized? You’re not alone, but you don’t have to wait for papers, court dates, or signatures to start moving forward.

In this candid (and hilarious) episode of How Not to Suck at Divorce, comedian Andrea Rappaport and top family law attorney Morgan Stogsdill share the real truth about life “in limbo” during divorce and how to reclaim your sense of control today.

What You'll Learn:

  • Why waiting for “someday” is the biggest trap people fall into during divorce.
  • The difference between what’s legally on hold vs. what’s emotionally self-imposed
  • Practical ways to feel progress when everything seems stuck: routines, and community support.
  • Andrea’s relatable (and ridiculous) humor about skincare, salmon sperm masks, and why she hates the word healing.
  • Morgan’s legal tips on dating, parenting schedules, and even buying a house before your divorce is final.
  • A game called “I Give You Permission” where the hosts hand out real-life permission slips to help you breathe easier and take action now

💡 Whether you’re stuck living with your ex, confused about dating during divorce, or simply tired of waiting, this episode gives you both the laughs and the strategies you need to feel less like you’re treading water and more like you’re steering the ship.
