In Episode 28, we continue the conversation with Peggy Hurd, a licensed marriage and family therapist, who has been instrumental in my healing journey through separation and divorce. Peggy, with over 51 years of marriage, and the wisdom of being a mom of two and a grandmother of two, returns to further unpack the complex topic of abuse in marriage. 

In this episode, we focus on two important and often misunderstood aspects of marital abuse: 

- Spiritual Abuse: The misuse of religion, faith, or spiritual authority to manipulate or control a spouse. 

- Sexual Abuse within Marriage: Addressing non-consensual sexual experiences and violations within the context of marriage. 

Peggy shares her professional insights and offers practical advice on recognizing these behaviors and beginning the process of healing. Through our conversation, we hope to shine a light on the nuanced forms of abuse and empower listeners to rise and reclaim their lives after divorce.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode: 

1. What constitutes spiritual abuse in a marriage and how it manifests.
