Losing your voice in marriage—whether through years of conflict, emotional neglect, or simply the slow erosion of self—can feel like one of the deepest wounds of divorce. It’s not just about starting over with a new home or co-parenting schedule. It’s about remembering who you are, and daring to put words around that identity again. In this episode of Divorce Happens, we explore what it really means to reclaim your voice after divorce, and why it matters for your healing.

Our guest, Dara Resnik, is a writer and director whose work in film and television is rooted in storytelling, character, and truth. As a Fresh Starts Expert, she brings not only professional expertise but also personal lived experience of divorce. Dara knows what it feels like to come out of a relationship turned upside down, and she offers five fresh, practical tips for finding your voice again—ranging from journaling practices to creative exploration, community support, and the courage to share your story.

Throughout the conversation, Dara reminds us that voice is more than words—it’s about identity, safety, and power. Whether you’re navigating silence after emotional abuse, or simply unsure of who you are outside your marriage, Dara’s insights offer both clarity and comfort. By the end of the episode, you’ll leave with not just tools, but also a reminder: divorce may have rewritten your story, but you still hold the pen.
