In this episode of The Music of Life, I discuss the emotional, financial, and logistical struggles that come with divorce—especially when it impacts our children. From managing mortgage payments to navigating tricky holiday schedules, I get real about the hard conversations, misunderstandings, and the toll it takes. I share stories of how I tried to keep things stable for my daughter despite the turbulence at home, and how I’ve had to navigate co-parenting when it felt like the odds were stacked against me.
Join me as I reflect on what it’s like when family dynamics change in ways you didn’t expect, and the journey of making it through difficult times while trying to keep the peace, even when things feel completely out of control.
Episode Highlights:
[00:02] - Personal reflection on what not to share with kids during a divorce.
[01:45] - Overdue mortgage, financial tension, and misunderstandings about money.
[07:30] - Addressing negative comments made in front of my daughter.
[12:05] - Struggles with holiday scheduling and family imbalances.
[15:40] - The challenges of planning my daughter’s Bat Mitzvah and feeling sidelined.
[18:55] - Creating a supportive environment for my daughter amid all the turmoil.
