In this episode, Quinn cracks open Yuval Noah Harari’s Sapiens and shows how its central idea—that humans rule the world because we can create and share stories—directly applies to divorce.

Marriage? A story. Divorce-as-failure? A story. Myths about women’s value, motherhood, and happiness? Stories.

Quinn weaves history, Harari’s insights, and her own lived experience to reveal how deeply we’ve been shaped by cultural fictions—and how liberating it is to see them for what they are. Divorce doesn’t make you broken; it’s your personal Cognitive Revolution, your chance to rewrite the myth and live into your most beautiful life.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• Why marriage and divorce are cultural myths, not biological truths
• How the story of marriage has shifted across history—from property deals to love matches
• The myths divorced women are handed (and why they’re total BS)
• How to name, question, and rewrite the stories that are shaping your post-divorce life
• Why divorce is not failure—it’s evolution

If it’s all just story, then babe—you get to write the next chapter.
