Pride Goeth Before Destruction, In Episode 52 of the Divorce University Online Podcast, we discuss how pride, especially in divorce, creates the sense that "I'm the only on" or "you don't know my ex". We tend to feel like our situation is so much harder or more difficult than the next persons. When you can begin to cultivate humility instead of pride, you begin to see your situation in a more objective way which allows you to identify your part in the conflict. This allows you to have more charitable feelings toward your ex. And why do you want this? Because it's the key to breaking free from the pain and frustration of divorce. Don't believe us?

Why Won't the Pain Stop?! In Episode 45 of the Divorce University Online Podcast, we discuss the pain that is divorce. We always say that if a person has never been through a divorce, you can't possibly explain the extreme emotional pain of it. We often try to (unknowingly) hold on to the relationship and since we are divorcing, the only way to do that is through negative contact, or pain. This results in conflict and sometimes people use the Court system to play out that conflict in an effort to "win", which they think will stop the pain. If you think about it, it's ironic to expect a Court result to make you happy. So, how do you know if you're holding on and what can you do about it?
