Divorce may close one door, but it need not close the heart. Healing takes time, support, and faith. Healing invites us to carry forward the good, leave behind the bad, and say yes to new beginnings with courage and grace.

In this episode with Dr. Lisa and Tony Goudy, we talk about finding love again after divorce and what it looks like to say “yes” to a new season of partnership. Dr. Lisa and Tony share their journeys from prior marriages to divorce, healing, and building a strong friendship that led to marriage as well as the launch of their new podcast, Saying Yes Again. We explore the complexities of healing, the fears around commitment, and how vulnerability and faith create space for hope and new beginnings.
