Together, they dive into the rising phenomenon of gray divorce—when couples over 50 choose to separate—and its often-overlooked emotional impact on adult children.
With high-profile splits like Bill and Melinda Gates making headlines, many are starting to ask the deeper questions: What happens to grown children when their family dynamic suddenly shifts? Do they feel betrayed? Relieved? Torn between loyalty and understanding? The answers may surprise you.

Whether you're a parent considering divorce later in life or an adult child caught in the crossfire, this episode sheds light on the hidden ripple effects and offers tools to move forward with clarity and grace.
