What if controlling your response to chaos is the only true power you have during divorce? Much like a societal epidemic or pandemic, divorce exposes how little we truly "own" outwardly — our home, our finances, even time with our children. When these are stripped away, what remains are the internal resources we often overlook: resilience, integrity, and commitment.

Listen in as I share the most common mistakes men make during divorce and why learning to show up in the chaos with intention is not only beneficial, but necessary. Because in the absence of control, your character becomes the one thing no one can take from you.

Are you holding onto a dream that's keeping you stuck in pain after divorce? As men, we unconsciously build dreams around marriage, fatherhood, and providing, and when those dreams are shattered by divorce, the emotional fallout can feel like a death of the self. It’s not just the loss of a relationship—it’s the unraveling of an identity we spent years, even decades, constructing.

But sometimes, the only way forward is to let the old dream die so that something more authentic can be born in its place. Listen in as I share reflections about my own divorce, how to break free from the identity shackles it can impose, and how embracing the "death" of these illusions can open the door to a more peaceful, grounded, and present life.

What happens when your marriage is over—but you're still living together? Today we're tackling one of the most draining parts of the divorce experience: living in invisible divorce.

Listen in to learn how small mindset shifts and practical actions can break the cycle of reactivity, frustration, and blame. We'll also explore the concept of “pattern interruption,” why judgment keeps you stuck, and how letting go of control can sometimes open up unexpected solutions.
