Okay, So Here’s The Deal

Rediscovering Joy After Divorce: From Glimmers to Your Glow Up Era


Listen Later

What if you truly believed you would never feel joy again?

In this deeply personal episode of Okay, So Here’s the Deal, Marilee Grace shares the moment she told her own mother that joy was no longer possible in her life—and the powerful journey of what it actually took to rediscover it after divorce.

Because here’s the truth:

Joy doesn’t just magically return.
It has to be rebuilt—intentionally, gently, and over time.

In this episode, we explore the difference between happiness and joy, and how even in your darkest seasons, there may still be a small, protected sliver of joy waiting to be nurtured back to life.

You’ll learn:

  • Why joy doesn’t automatically return after divorce 
  • The difference between happiness (an emotion) and joy (a state of being) 
  • What “glimmers” are and how they help regulate your nervous system 
  • How small, everyday moments can begin restoring your sense of peace 
  • What it means to reconnect with your authentic self 
  • How glimmers grow into your inner sparkle—and eventually your glow up 
  • This episode is your reminder that healing doesn’t happen all at once. It starts small. Quiet. Almost unnoticeable.

    But those small moments?

    They can bring you all the way back to yourself.

    A worksheet is included to help you begin noticing your own glimmers and rebuilding joy—one moment at a time.
