In this episode of About the Author, host Hannah Harris sits down with counselor, author, and ministry founder Kent Darie to explore the often-overlooked impact of parental divorce on adult children. Drawing from his personal story and decades of professional experience, Kent explains how unresolved anger, fear of conflict, trust issues, and emotional patterns formed in childhood can quietly shape adult relationships—especially marriage.

Kent also discusses his book *Preparing to Say “I Do” When Parents Said “I Don’t,” a premarital guide designed to address challenges traditional counseling often misses, and shares insights into the growing phenomenon of “gray divorce” and its effects on adult families. This thoughtful conversation offers practical tools, hope-filled perspective, and encouragement for adults with divorced parents who want to build healthier relationships and break generational cycles.
