Show notes

Having been through divorce myself I know firsthand it’s not an easy road. I also know from experience that it’s even more challenging as a parent.

It’s a time of transition, when everything can seem to be falling apart around and within you.

You may feel exhausted, defeated, hopeless or even want to end your life.

But I, and today’s Man Alive Podcast guest, wants you to know there IS hope! There will of course be challenges, but when you’re open to it life will bring you new people and experiences to support you, even amidst the pain.

Robin Choe has been through his own divorce as a dad and now hosts a group of thousands of divorced dads. The group offers understanding, guidance and people to lean on. You do NOT have to go through this alone. In fact you actually can’t. Going through divorce is often a time when men realize they can’t heal in isolation.

In our podcast conversation we discussed… 

* Something you can count on every day you’re alive that will give you hope* What’s possible when you shift from “Why me?” to seeing an opportunity to grow and know yourself  * The importance of letting go of the”Nice Guy” persona * Balancing taking care of those you love AND yourself * Robin’s path into the darkness and back out into the light

Robin shared a quote by Lao Tzu that is an inspiring reminder: “New beginnings are often disguised as painful endings.” 

If you’re going through a separation or divorce know that we believe in you and are here to support you.
